Arc-flash and arc-flash studies are also clarified. This White Paper also highlights a safety concern when HV/MV switchgear fails catastrophically, particularly oil-filled switchgear assembly. Within IEC Standards, HV switchgear are used on systems above 1 kV up to 52 kV. In North America MV is any voltage between 600 V and 69 kV.
Switchgear designed and tested to mechanically withstand the electric arc. Protection is afforded by the containment of the arc within the switchgear and the means to direct the arc gases and debris to a safe area. Passive solutions also include advanced switchgear design features to reduce the probability of an arc flash occurring.
Improve safety with our extensive portfolio of arc flash mitigation solutions including arc quenching and arc-resistant switchgear, Power Xpert XGIS switchgear, Power Xpert Dashboard, Power Defense molded case circuit breaker, Insulgard, arc flash relays and more.
The principle of passive arc flash protection is based on the mechanical design of low- and medium-voltage switchgear. Robust design reduces the risk that a person, standing in front of switchgear with closed and latched doors, will be injured in the event of an arcing current event inside the equipment.
