The new APO Pyrofuse from SCHURTER provides active safety for high-voltage systems up to 1000V/400A. A micro gas generator disconnects the circuit within less than 2ms in case of a fault signal – ...

Members can download this article in PDF format. High-voltage systems serve applications ranging from renewable-energy generation to industrial motor control. Such systems require precise control to ...

Many industrial commercial users of power have both high and low voltage installations, yet many are puzzled by which regulations to follow. We have seen users default to full flash suits, simply ...
