Reclosers are predominantly located on the distribution feeder, though as the continuous and interrupting current ratings increase, they are seen in substations, where traditionally a circuit breaker would be located. Reclosers have two basic functions on the distribution system: reliability and overcurrent protection.
Tigerswitchgear Reclosers have over 15 years of proven field performance incorporating innovative technology and unique expertise, including embedded sensors with the highest accuracy and least environmental sensitivity in the market. And with multiple controller options, Tigerswitchgear reclosers are designed to continually meet and exceed the growing demands of power distribution.
