Wide Variety Of Products Exhibited By S&C Electric Company

S&C Electric Company is exhibiting a variety of products at the 2006 IEEE/PES T&D Exposition, including a major breakthrough in overhead line protection, an advanced automatic circuit restoration system, an innovative overhead lateral circuit protection device, and a new power quality product for wind farm applications. Of special interest at this year's show are:

• IntelliRupter PulseCloser — a unitized package of fault-interrupting and control components which provides fault isolation and circuit restoration functions on 15.5-kV and 27-kV overhead distribution systems.
• IntelliTEAM III Automatic Restoration System — the latest generation of IntelliTEAM, specifically designed to work with IntelliRupter and the new SpeedNet™ Radio. With IntelliTEAM III, protection coordination settings can be configured automatically.
• TripSaver Dropout Recloser — this self-powered, electronically controlled vacuum recloser for overhead lateral circuits is offered in system class voltage ratings of 15.5 and 27 kV, and can be installed in new and existing cutout mountings.
• Circuit-Isolator II Disconnect — a three-pole group-operated isolating disconnect specifically designed for use in distribution substations in ratings of 69-kV through 138-kV.
• PureWave ESA Electronic Shock Absorber — an innovative grid stabilizing device for wind farm applications on small or isolated electric systems.
• Vista Underground Distribution Switchgear — new single-way model uniquely designed to fit through wind tower doors in rating of 15.5-kV through 38-kV.

Other S&C products on display:

• Fault Tamer Fuse Limiter — combines series fuse and backup limiter in one powerful package for overhead pole-top transformer protection. Ratings to 34.5 kV.
• Type XS Fuse Cutout—with composite-polymer silicone insulator has 30 - inch (762-mm) leakage distance to ground.
• PureWave AVC Adaptive VAR Compensator — economically provides real- time voltage-support and power-factor correction for dynamically varying loads, 300 kVAR and up.
• BankGuard PLUS Control — protects substation capacitor banks from overvoltage stress and provides automatic bank switching for system voltage regulation.

Personnel from S&C's Power Systems Services will be on hand to discuss electric system consulting, analytical studies, design engineering, field service, lagoratory studies, and seminars & workshops.
