key features
Voltage Ratings
Available in 11kV and 36kV options, providing flexible solutions for medium-voltage applications in power distribution systems.
Porcelain Clad Design
The porcelain-clad design ensures excellent insulation and resistance to environmental factors such as humidity, dust, and extreme temperatures, making these circuit breakers suitable for outdoor installations.
Vacuum Interruption Technology
Our PCVCBs utilize vacuum interrupters, which are highly effective in extinguishing arcs quickly and safely during current interruptions. This technology ensures long operational life and minimal maintenance needs.
Reliable Fault Protection
Designed to interrupt fault currents within milliseconds, the outdoor VCB protects transformers, substations, and other electrical equipment from damage caused by electrical faults or overloads.
Compact and Sturdy Construction
The compact design of the PCVCB minimizes installation space requirements, while its rugged construction ensures durability and longevity in outdoor environments.
Automatic Tripping
Equipped with advanced relay systems, our VCBs provide automatic tripping mechanisms to detect and react to fault conditions, ensuring reliable system protection and faster recovery from disturbances.
IP55 Protection
The circuit breaker housing provides IP55 protection, safeguarding the equipment against dust ingress and low-pressure water jets, further enhancing its suitability for outdoor environments.
Low Maintenance
Vacuum circuit breakers require minimal maintenance due to the lack of arc products and reduced contact erosion, significantly lowering operational costs over time.
