FN5-12 Load Break Switch-Fuse Combination - 12KV Indoor High Voltage

Designed specifically for use in AC 50 Hz and 12,000 Volt distribution networks, the FN5-12 load switch is an effective solution across a range of applications. It performs two key functions: interrupting normal load and closing short circuit currents. In this manner, the load switch manages both the regular operating load of an electric distribution system and the abnormal condition which may result in an unsafe situation for that distribution system. The FN5-12 load switch is the most effective way to manage both types of situations in an electric distribution system; the FN5-12 load switch provides reliable, repeatable performance to maintain uninterrupted distribution of electrical energy.

The FN5-12 load switch is outfitted with a built-in fuse, which is one of its distinguishing characteristics. The combination of the load switch and fuse significantly increases the amount of protection the device can provide by allowing it to clear short circuit currents effectively. If a short circuit occurs, the fuse operates immediately to isolate the fault from the rest of the electric system, which in turn increases the overall safety of the electric system and reduces potential damage to the electric equipment. As a result, the FN5-12 load switch has dual protection features (fuse) and is easier to design and maintain high voltage electric distribution systems.

FN5-12 Load Switches were designed to be long lasting as well as reliable and dependable. The FN5-12 Load Switch can also operate under severe conditions with consistent performance over time without the need for frequent repairs and outages due to maintenance. Because of the FN5-12 Load Switch being very dependable, this makes it a popular choice amongst utility operators wanting to have a reliable and secure distribution network for their electrical energy.

The FN5-12 Indoor High Voltage Load Switch/Fuse Combination Unit is an invaluable asset to any utility's operation. The Load Break Switching capability of the FN5-12 allows operators to quickly disconnect from any load current, while providing complete protection from short circuits. This unit offers a dependable method of isolating faults and protecting equipment and personnel. Investing in the FN5-12 Load Switch will provide any operator with increased safety, reliability, and efficiency when supplying electrical energy through their high voltage distribution systems.
