ARC GUARD SYSTEM™
Arc fault in medium voltage or low voltage switchgear is one of the most devastating fault types in Electrical switchboards. Most often the accident occurs when someone
is working in the switchgear for maintenance or installation. The consequences after these accidents are often severe resulting in serious injuries or death. In addition, arc
fault occurrences have significant impact on plant and machinery, with long downtimes and destroyed equipment. For this reason, it is crucial to build up a robust safety
solution that works every time.
