Circuit Breakers : Selectivity & Cascading - what are the benefits?

Hi, 

 

Do you know how and why selectivity helps you avoiding downtime and allows faster recovery time?

Do you know why cascading can decrease your electrical installation costs?

 

Have a look at these 2 posts on our Power Foundation Blog:

-  How to Ensure your Power Availability with Circuit Breaker Selectivity?

-  How to Optimize your Electrical Installation Costs with Circuit Breaker Cascading?

 

You'll find in there: explanations, insights on the benefits from these 2 notions, as well as links to the electrical installation guide, a calculation tool to help you design optimized architectures as well as a guide for selectivity & cascading. 

 

Please do not hesitate to share your comments, your questions, your suggestions and your thoughts right here !!!

Hi,

 

I have downloaded the selectivity & cascading guide indicated into the blog.

I've found it very comprehensive and explanatory.

 

But, I am wondering if you guys would propose some kind of webinars or trainings on this topic.

It would be very useful.

 

Let me know

 

Thanks.
