How To Choose Overhead (aerial) Low-voltage Surges Limiters Introduction The analysis of threats coming from atmospherical, connecting and induced surges, etc. should not be carried through pure and simple within the area of the closed facility. Within the multistage surge protection framework, as the first degree of protection, the aerial limiter of the class A (according to VDE 0675) should be provided. Therefore the surge protection analysis should take...... Similar Editorial : Which Should You Choose by daf719. | Source : Advance Technology Systems
Protection Of Electrical Installations When speaking about the protection of electrical installation, the most often meant is the overcurrent protection. This is the protection that must be activated in case of exceedingly high currents in an installation (the currents whose value is higher than expected). It can be achieved using safety fuses, or (automatic) circuit breakers; there are two other names: LS and MCB switches.The task of......

New Series Of Etibreak Eb2 In View Of Selectivity What is selectivity?Selectivity in mean of protective devices is also called by other terms as discrimination or coordination of protective devices.To put it simply, coordination means that downstream devices (breakers/fuses) should activate before upstream devices. This minimizes the portion of the system affected by a fault or other disturbance. At the substation level,feeder breakers should......

What Are Medium-voltage Zno Overvoltage Surge Arresters Lately, for overvoltage protection in medium-voltage power transmission networks have been more and more used ZnO overvoltage surge arresters with silicon casing.Such arresters are composed of highly nonlinear resistor blocks. Nonlinearity is related to the current through the arrester dependence of the voltage. The arrester resistance is inversely proportional to the voltage applied. In this way,......

Short Circuit Protection In Dc Circuits The importance of use of fuses as protection elements in DC circuits has increased recently. This article deals with some theoretical points and explanations of basic notions in DC circuits. Further on, some of the most common applications are described, where conventional shortcircuit protection is not sufficient enough and special requirements of designers or customers are necessary. Besides...... Similar Editorial : Circuit Training by Deborrah Cooper. | Source : Advanced Audio Technology
Development Trend Of Residual Current Circuit Breakers The paper deals with the directions of the state-of-the-art changes in the field of residual current circuit breakers, with particular emphasis on standards changes due to new requirements of environment, reliability of operation, operation at high frequencies, and use of voltage-dependent switches.Protection switches, or residual current devices are in practice a widely used way of protection......

Description Of Protective Switches Operation Two articles in two last year's numbers of the magazine Er have presented a survey of operation of overcurrent protective devices, based on the use of traditional safety fuses. A similar survey can be presented also for the protective devices, manufactured as various protective switches. These devices are in the first place:* circuit breakers complying with the standard SIST EN 60898 - circuit......
