Electrical equipment operates as a standard underground in a variety of industries. Keeping electrical equipment hidden underground can help to save on floor space and ensure that it can be well protected in the event of an emergency. Securing underground electrical equipment can be a crucial practice and if you work in an industry where this is the norm, it’s likely they do need a reliable electrical supplier to make sure that you can get the best in power circuit breakers and arcs guard load terminals.
Our standard for underground switchgear ensures that the forces that are generated on load terminals and bolted faults can be appropriately managed with underground materials. The compatibility of our system is verified with a power circuit breaker and a series of other protective devices. We interrupt the flow of fault current if there’s ever a problem within your system. Capabilities within the system are verified by short time and short-circuit breakers. We perform regular testing on these breakers to make sure that interruptions in tests can preserve electronic equipment and offer easy reset solutions to operators. Through interruption tests on these powered circuit breakers, we can make sure that your electronics can be well preserved and that the fault energy is properly dissipated throughout the power system in an emergency.
One of the main tests that we complete on underground switchgear is a bolted fault in which the voltage at the fault location is properly dissipated throughout the power system. The arcs that are generated throughout this issue cannot make their way back to the electronics that are powered by the power circuit breaker. All of the electrical faults will be extinguished by the breaker immediately.
The class of electronics that we provide in our underground switchgear will help you to avoid minimal interruptions within your business and keep your electronics well protected. These underground solutions can be perfect for protecting miners and for protecting industrial equipment. Underground switchgear is also designed with the safety of workers in mind with an arc-resistant solution that will protect any workers near it as well as equipment that is operating near the switches. There’s a reinforced closure that can withstand the pressure of internal arcing faults and an internal venting system which can release pressure through pressure vents to channel the flow of various gases.
The level of reinforcement, craftsmanship and testing that goes into our underground switchgear protection can help to make sure that your most precious electronic devices can continue to operate without fault or downtime. We want to make sure that all of the systems that we provide are built with industry specifications in mind. These are tools that are built to exceed industry standards and designed to provide you with the best experience from any type of underground switchgear in your industry.
