G&W's Current Limiting Protectors (CLiP®)
can offer the advantages of current limitation for 2.8 through
38 kV systems with continuous current ratings up to 5000 A.
Compact, totally sealed construction permits the CLiP to be
installed both indoors and out, either pole or structure mounted
or within an enclosure.
The CLiP's unique ability to provide
high continuous current ratings with current limitation and
ultra-high speed of operation in one package make it an economical
solution for a variety of overcurrent protection needs including:
 |
System Upgrade
— without replacing underrated equipment such as
circuit breakers, reclosers, switches or bus. |
|
Reactor Bypass
— to eliminate costly operating losses and eliminate
voltage regulation problems. |
|
Transformer
Protection — to minimize damage by reducing
fault energy. |
|
Cogeneration
— to limit contribution to the system while protecting
your cogenerator investment. |
|
Lower
Breaker Ratings — to reduce the cost of full
rated equipment in new installations while improving protection.
|
|
Close
Bus Ties — without exceeding equipment ratings.
|
Electrical Ratings:
