High Voltage Switchgear Manufacturer
At Langsung Electric, we understand the importance of compliance with arc flash safety standards and regulations. Therefore, our high voltage switchgear is designed to adhere to the highest
Unlike conventional switchgear, arc-resistant switchgear is designed with reinforced compartments that can withstand incredible pressure increases during high-energy arc faults. Arc-resistant switchgear offers a safe, proven, and cost-effective solution to the problem of arc flash events. Why do I need Arc-Resistant Switchgear?
Because arc-resistant switchgear is specifically designed to contain and limit the damage incurred from internal arc faults, it provides the highest degree of protection to personnel, long-term savings, and a significant reduction in downtime.
Arc Quenching Switchgear minimizes or eliminates damage to switchgear in the event of an arc fault, protecting valuable switchgear assets from arc flash damage. It is designed to reduce peak fault current by at least 25% and peak stress on upstream equipment by at least 44% when compared to a bolted fault device.
An arc flash is an electrical explosion where energy leaves the circuit that it is contained in and travels through the air. The blast from an arc event combines voltage, heat—up to 35,000 degrees Fahrenheit—and violent concussion. Even with special PPE, those in the vicinity of an arc flash risk injury or even death.
