Product
5,500 Amp enclosure vacuum generator breakers
Challenge
No catalog (off-the-shelf) offering to replace old and faulty oil filled generator breakers equipment
Solution
Worked with Eaton and Southern Company engineers to design a custom Generator Breaker and replace oil circuit breakers with no change to infrastructure. All bushing and control connections were designed to minimize down time for change out. The product was built in full compliance with ANSI and UL standards and passed all type testing required by ANSI and the utility.
