Realize Fast Results for Fire Mitigation

Date: August 19

The world is changing, and environmental conditions have elevated the risk of even the smallest powerline failure. The days of only using traditional timed and instantaneous current elements, manual overhead air break switches, or fuses are over. More advanced detection, protection, and remotely controlled device schemes are required to prevent the power system from becoming an ignition source. Learn how a recloser’s construction can further reduce flashover risks on a congested pole. We will discuss how a recloser, its sensors, and a relay control can become one of the first lines of defense.
