Current measurement at high voltages has become a big issue in this age of SMART Grid and FERC regulations. The CMD TM II revolutionary technology measures current on high voltage systems with zero foot print, no solid insulation to ground and no batteries. It uses 5.8 GHz communication technology to transfer data securely, economically and reliably from the high voltage system to ground potential in real time....(continued)

RLSwitcher® Shunt Reactor Switch

Switching shunt reactors is one of the most difficult switching duties and can shorten the life of both the switching device and the reactor. The RLSwitcher®, available at 38 kV through 245 kV, is designed specifically for switching shunt reactors. Its' unique interrupter design minimizes reignitions and their...(continued)

The LLS-I 72-2000 Load and Line Interrupter is an ideal attachment for a vertical break switch adding the capability for breaking full load current (2000 Amperes), line charging currents (300 Amperes), and loop splitting currents (2000 Amperes). The LLS-I, designed specifically for 72 kV and below, will mount on any manufacturer’s...(continued)
