Circuit Breaker Racking Device can be remotely operated.
2013-10-07 14:29:53| Industrial Newsroom - All News for Today
Enhancing safety for operators, motorized and remotely operated circuit breaker racking device provides means to remotely insert or remove drawout circuit breakers used in Eaton VacClad-W switchgear. Design increases distance between operator and live components to mitigate impacts of arc flash exposure, and operator can use remote controls to select, disconnect, test, or connect circuit breaker positions. System also detects errors and provides suggested corrective actions. This story is related to the following:Remote Circuit Breaker Controls

AVO Training Institute - Circuit Breaker Maintenance (Medium Voltage)
2013-06-27 18:08:00| Transmission & Distribution World
Unlike a low-voltage breaker, medium-voltage breakers rated at 1 kV or higher rely on external controls to operate effectively. That means technicians have more components to test and maintain to ensure a 3 to 5 cycle operating time. Failure of one of these breakers can cause catastrophic damage to other equipment and is extremely hazardous to nearby personnel. With safe and proper maintenance, technicians can ensure that tripping operations execute as required for equipment protection. In addition to improving electrical system reliability, well maintained circuit breakers also minimize the arc flash hazard energy levels that technicians can be exposed to during a fault. Location Various Locations United States See map: Google Maps Course Duration: 3.5 days Credits: 2.8 CEUs Level of Involvement: Hands-on Schedule: 8:00am - 4:30pm, the final day ends at 12:00pm Locations: Dallas, TX; Valley Forge, PA Course Number: 300 Tuition USD: $ 1440 Unlike a low-voltage breaker, medium-voltage breakers rated at 1 kV or higher rely on external controls to operate effectively.
