New! Segmented Distance Protection
Our team is thrilled to present a ground-breaking distance protection function that redefines the principle of this application. The new unique segmented approach to distance protection makes configuration considerably easier and the protection more accurate. Meet us for a demonstration of the new features in our booth in Cigre!
No fault goes unnoticed!
But that’s not all – we’re also excited to share our latest marvel: an innovativefault detection device for secondary substations. This isn’t just any device; it is a device that really works and ensures that no fault goes unnoticed, including high-impedance earth faults.
Electrical safety!
Electrical safety is a concern that is rapidly growing in importance, and where there’s a low or medium voltage electrical switchgear, there’s a risk for a hazardous arc flash incident. Our arc quenching devices capture and contain the harmful energy of an arc. They extinguish the arc flash in less than 5 ms, before heat, pressure and gas emissions arise to dangerous levels, which crucially improves the safety of the maintenance work and minimizes the damage on the equipment should an arc flash incident occur. What’s best is that our arc quenching devices can be re-activated for multiple operations, including testing to verify that the entire arc protection system performs as expected.
