Switchgear application hybridisation is an emerging field of deployment for distribution network switchgear such as Automatic Circuit Reclosers (ACRs). The roles which these units fulfil on the network is diversifying rapidly, as the applicability of a single unit which incorporates circuit breaker, sensors and control has many applications.
Modern distribution network switchgear is nothing short of an engineering marvel. Born to operate in the most demanding conditions under 30 years of electrical abuse, blizzards, dust-storms and everything in between, Reclosers have been the go-to solution for most distribution network engineers since their invention eons ago.
