The FKG2 from AREVA T&D is a generator circuit breaker that enhances the conventional design of power plants up to 200 MW by simplifying operations, improving security and reducing cost. The FKG2 from ...
Circuit breakers are used in nearly all electrical systems — from residential dwellings to electric utility facilities. We rely on them to protect our systems from damaging overcurrents and short ...
In the early days of breaker technology, conventional distribution breakers were used as GCBs. Then, with larger generators in power plants and increasing output from these generators, the machine ...
As noted in NFPA 70B, insulated-case and molded-case circuit breakers should be kept clean of external contamination (Comstock/Stockbyte/Thinkstock). Low-voltage ...
They do not depend on temperature as a tripping mechanism, so they often find use where ambient temperatures are high. Their insensitivity to temperature also makes them candidates for protecting ...
