ARC GUARD SYSTEM

ABB’s TVOC Arc Guard System stands at the forefront of electrical
safety solutions, specifically tailored for industrial and commercial
environments.

The Arc Guard system employs susceptible sensors to swiftly detect
characteristic signatures of electrical arcs, enabling a rapid response
to mitigate potential hazards. Upon detection, the system orchestrates
a controlled shutdown of the affected circuit, effectively quenching
the arc and preventing further damage to equipment and personnel.
Distinguished by a modular design, the Arc Guard System seamlessly
integrates into existing electrical panels. Advanced features, such
as communication capabilities and adjustable sensitivity settings,
contribute to its adaptability across diverse applications. The system’s
compliance with international standards underscores its reliability and
commitment to safety.
