the arcswitch® panel unit, can be retrofitted to medium or low voltage switchgear
very easily. it can be commissioned very quickly during a maintenance schedule

ease, and switch with no tools or switchgear

Electrician has to do is magnetically clip the
ArcSwitch® meter to the panel and Connect-up
the test leads following the colour codes, starting
with the ground first, then the outputs and finally
the com input.
The Electrician is then ready to close or open the
circuit breaker, when they are ready to switch
with the ArcSwitch® meter, all personnel should
be removed to a safe distance, and a final sweep
should be done when switching is ready to take
place.

switching with the ArcSwitch® meter, the greater
the distance you have between you and the circuit
breaker you are switching the safer you are. A
defined minimum distance should be agreed by

meter, by pressing the master on/off button and
once at a safe distance can then switch safely
