Current limiting protection for distribution boxes
Current limiters combine the benefits of circuit breakers and overcurrent protective devices to deliver reliable multi-hazard electrical protection that help keep your workers and equipment safe from arc flashes and system damage. G&W Electric's Current Limiting Protectors (CLiP) offer the advantages of current limitation for 2. 8 through 38 kV systems with continuous current ratings up to 5000 A. 5 kV, 5,000 A and 210 kA rms breaking. s of 100 kA short- circuit protection. Unlike fused current limiters with a one-time use, the current limiter module provides automatic eset of the module after interruption. Adequate system designs allow for the system to withstand and isolate faults while not causing additional damage and/or outages. Their compact, sealed design allows for indoor or outdoor installation, pole or structure mounting, or enclosure placement.
