PowlVac® switchgear is designed to house the
many different types of components required
to distribute and control electricity. The
primary component in this distribution system
is the circuit breaker. The PowlVac circuit
breaker is a vacuum type circuit breaker. It is
designed to meet all the requirements for use
in metal-clad switchgear and as such it has
all the necessary interlocks and grounding to
interface with the switchgear. It is a removable
device, designed with wheels that make
insertion and removal from the compartment
a simple operation. All circuit breakers with
equal ratings are interchangeable.
For a detailed description of the circuit breaker
and its operation refer to the appropriate
instruction bulletin for PowlVac vacuum circuit
breaker.
