What is an electrical Viper?
G&W Electric’s Viper®-ST independent pole operated (IPO) recloser combines the time proven reliability of electronically controlled, vacuum fault interrupters with the maintenance-free benefits of a solid dielectric insulated device.
What is a pad mounted recloser?
Eaton’s Pad-Mounted NOVA recloser The electronically controlled, enclosed recloser features solid di electric vacuum interruption in a mild steel enclosure design, safeguarding against weather, tampering and rodents.
What is the difference between a recloser and a breaker?
Circuit breakers are most often used in distribution substations, whereas reclosers are most often used beyond the substation, out on the overhead distribution lines. Reclosers are typically available with symmetrical short-circuit ratings of 12.5 kA or 16 kA, with some offerings at lower or higher currents.
What is a recloser in electricity?
A recloser is an automatic, high-voltage electric switch. Like a circuit breaker on household electric lines, it shuts off electric power when trouble occurs, such as a short circuit. The recloser senses when trouble occurs and automatically shuts off the power.
Where can I use recloser?
Reclosers are used throughout the power distribution system, from the substation to residential utility poles. They range from small reclosers for use on single-phase power lines, to larger three-phase reclosers used in substations and on high-voltage power lines up to 38,000 volts.
What is a nova recloser?
Eaton’s Cooper Power series NOVA recloser is a three-phase, vacuum-interrupting recloser that successfully combines four patented technologies: cycloaliphatic-epoxy encapsulation, high-performance vacuum interrupter, dependable lower power mechanism and an automated microprocessor recloser control.
Where are Reclosers used?
What are Reclosers used for?
A recloser is an automatic, high-voltage electric switch. Like a circuit breaker on household electric lines, it shuts off electric power when trouble occurs, such as a short circuit.
Why choose the G&W Viper-St recloser?
Features Reliable Performance – The Viper-ST recloser utilizes G&W’s time-proven epoxy system to fully encapsulate the vacuum interrupter. This system provides excellent insulation while providing fully shielded, void-free construction.
What is a Viper recloser?
G&W Electric’s Viper ® -ST independent pole operated (IPO) recloser combines the time proven reliability of electronically controlled, vacuum fault interrupters with the maintenance-free benefits of a solid dielectric insulated device.
What is Viper ® -SP?
G&W Electric’s Viper ® -SP solid dielectric, single phase recloser combines the time-proven reliability of electronically controlled, vacuum fault interrupters with the maintenance-free benefits of a solid dielectric insulated device.
What kind of controls does the Viper s work with?
Controls – The Viper-S works directly with a variety of popular controls. Control Connections – The traditional 14-pin recloser control connector design is the same as other Cooper reclosers permitting easy change out of previously installed controls and/or reclosers.
