Tripsaver

About The Project

Tripsaver

Temporary faults on your power distribution system have a big impact on an electric utility’s reliability and bottom line. A new lateral protection strategy using the TripSaver® II Cutout-Mounted Recloser could dramatically reduce outages related to temporary faults.

Solid-dielectric Underground Switchgear

Solid-dielectric Underground Switchgear

About The Project

Link: Switchgear: Underground distribution switchgear from S&C

Link: Vista SD Underground Distribution Switchgear

Switchgear design: S&C now offers another choice in metal-enclosed gear, the economical Vista SD Underground Distribution Switchgear. It is the first practical solid-dielectric switchgear with a visible open gap and field-replaceable bushings.

Fault Interrupter

Fault Interrupter

About The Project

Link: S&C’s IntelliRupter® PulseCloser® Fault Interrupter

This device uses PulseClosing® Technology to self-heal power systems, minimizing the harmful effects of reclosing and adding years of life to your transformer. PulseClosing Technology tests for a fault using less than 5 percent of the energy a traditional recloser would, meaning less wear on your system’s assets.

Advanced Technology Center

Advanced Technology Center

About The Project

The ATC features a high-power testing laboratory that will enable S&C to test its Smart Grid products at home rather than at labs outside the U.S., as it was limited to in the past, thus accelerating the development and delivery of solutions critical to integrating renewable energy resources to the grid – particularly at the distribution level. Such innovations include the highly sophisticated automatic service restoration, energy storage and power quality equipment needed for the Smart Grid.
