Arc Quenching Switchgear video series: Creating a low impedance current path.

In our fourth video, learn how the Arc Quenching Device creates a current-limited, lower impedance current path to extinguish an arcing fault inside the switchgear.
 

Arc Quenching Magnum DS low voltage switchgear

Arc Quenching Magnum DS low voltage switchgear drastically reduces incident energy to provide an unprecedented level of protection for personnel, switchgear and process uptime.
 

Arc Quenching Switchgear video series: Ensuring the path of lowest impedance.

In our final video, Adams explains how you can be sure that the current path created by the Arc Quenching Device is always going to be the one of lowest impedance, and therefore will extinguish any given arc fault inside the switchgear.
 

Arc Quenching Switchgear video series: Recovering from an arc flash incident.

In our second video, see Adams Baker explain how, in the event of an arc flash, AQS can be returned to service within hours. See what it takes to make this possible.
