In this video, you’ll learn:
Why fault clearing speed matters for fire mitigation
Faster protection reduces the amount of energy released during a fault event, helping limit sparks, arc flash energy and potential ignition sources.
How different protection approaches compare
See how traditional breakers, reactors and current limiting protection differ in the amount of fault energy (I²t) allowed to pass through the system.
Why CLiP® current limiting protectors reduce energy most effectively
CLiP® technology limits both fault current magnitude and duration, dramatically reducing fault energy let-through and helping utilities lower fire risk while protecting equipment.
