Arc Quenching | Low-Voltage Switchgear | Eaton
Eaton Arc Quenching Switchgear provides enhanced safety, advanced equipment protection and minimized downtime in the event of an arc flash. It reduces incident energy to below 1.2
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?
Crown Arc-Resistant Switchgear Crown Technical Systems is one of the few companies in the world that engineers and manufactures arc-resistant switchgear. Our original engineering team pioneered the widespread use of arc-resistant gear throughout Canada.
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.
Southwest Electric Company (SWE) offers arc flash mitigation services. They can perform any arc flash studies you need, partnering with an engineering firm to analyze the results. From there, they can provide solutions to reconfigure any equipment that exceeds safety limits.
