Our distribution reclosers and overhead switches are rated up to 38kV for a variety of applications. Their flexible designs include options for local and remote operation, as well as integration with distribution automation and automatic transfer control solutions.
Distribution Reclosers and Overhead Switches
Distribution Reclosers and Overhead Switches for Strong Performance in Any Environment
Field-Tested Reliability
Our reclosers and overhead switches are electronically controlled vacuum interrupter switches, making them more reliable for load switching and overcurrent protection.
Switches for Any Application
Reclosers and overhead switches are available for distribution systems up to 38kV and can be installed on the pole or in a substation or padmount, depending on the application.
Flexible Operation
All of our distribution reclosers and overhead switches are available for manual, remote supervisory, distribution automation or automatic transfer control applications.
Reduced Maintenance Costs
Eliminate the need for routine maintenance and improve personnel safety with overall dependable performance, dead-tank design and solid dielectric insulation.
Dead-Tank Technology
The dead-tank design of our Viper®-S, Viper®-ST and Viper®-SP reduces wildlife interruptions and increases operator safety with modules at ground potential.
Site-Ready Designs
The distribution reclosers and overhead switches can be provided in site-ready configuration with customized frames, connected lightning arresters, primary and secondary wired PTs, and jumpers, along with wildlife protectors on all terminals. Site-ready designs allow end-users to save on preparation and installation time.
