FAC-Series 2.4kV-15kV Front Access Compact 38.5″D Switchgear

   Product Features

• Space saving Front Access Only design can be placed against the back wall.
• Smallest footprint 15 kV air insulated switchgear on the market, each section is only 38.5” deep and 26” wide.
• Increased operator safety:
  o Remote controllable design.
  o Completely metal enclosed dead front.
  o Provision for connection of field grounding cables.
  o Removable metal panel for viewing blades position of the visible disconnect air insulated switch (through Lexan protected viewing window).
• Complete front access to all the components, bus and bolted joints.
• Easy to maintain & environmentally friendly:
  o 100% air insulated, no SF6 gas used.
• Modular, slideout design of the major power switching components to minimize the downtime, should component replacement or repair be needed.
• Lower cost of installation: Insulating barriers provided between the phases, no need to tape or boot field cable terminations.
• All bus is manufactured from silver plated copper.

• Pistol Grip Circuit Breaker Control Switches provide a red and green target to indicate circuit breaker position status.
• Test Switches provide a safe, simple, fast and reliable method to isolate, test, and service installed equipment without disturbing the power system.
  • Allows for quick and easy multi-circuit testing by conventional test methods.
• Test Plugs enable easier measurement, calibration, verification and maintenance of relays, meters, PTs, & CTs.
  • Conveniently connects devices measuring the currents and voltages being applied to the relays, meters, PTs, & CTs without interrupting or short-circuiting the circuit.
• Voltage Transformers (PTs) and Current Transformers (CTs) contain auxiliary drawers that accomodate fuses, control power transformers, or voltage transformers.
  • Secondary Self-aligning Contacts accommodate up to six independent circuits.
  • For operator safety these devices are automatically grounded during movement to disconnected position.
  • PTs Available in Wye or Open Delta Voltage Sensing Configurations.
  • CTs for Relaying/Power Sensing, Differential, or Ground Fault sensing available in standard or Revenue Grade Metering Accuracy.
