According to the company, when combined with Breaktor circuit protection technology, which combines current switching and reconfigurable bi-directional short circuit protection with fast tripping, ...

Thermal protection is very important in many power systems. Figure 1 shows a low-cost thermal-protection circuit based on the LTC1998, a 6-pin SOT-23 comparator for battery monitoring. This circuit ...

The Barrington Model Circuit Breaker Simulator was designed to be a convenient, lightweight alternative to operating high-voltage circuit breakers while testing the operation of substation protection ...

If a motor isn't adequately protected, a short circuit will likely result in premature replacement. Then there's the problem of nuisance tripping upon initial start-up because the magnetic setting of ...

A typical low-voltage variable-frequency drive. Industrial facilities commonly use variable-frequency drives (VFDs) to control the speed at which alternating current motors operate. Let’s examine a ...
