Masterpact NW and NT Circuit Breakers with Arc Flash Protection
Industry-leading protection for personnel and equipment.
The new technology employed in the Masterpact® NW and NT circuit breakers make them unique in the industry. The technology provides the following benefits:
- Comparable or better arc flash incident energy and personnel protection to fuse protected circuit breakers
- Reliable power
- A smaller footprint
- Reduced maintenance needs
- High interrupting ratings without fuses: Masterpact NW = 200,000 A at 508 Vac
- Circuit breakers designed for all applications:
- High withstand-rated circuit breakers for system coordination
- High close and latch ratings for systems with high inrushes, etc.
- Quick-opening designs for high available fault currents
- Quick-opening designs for arc flash protection without fuses
Masterpact NW and NT circuit breakers installed in PZ4 switchgear make possible smaller and safer installations. Since the Masterpact NW and NT circuit breakers do not need fuses, the following problems are eliminated:
- hazards associated with changing fuses;
- the need for additional mechanical hardware and items that can wear out, including fuse holders, blown fuse indicators, single-phasing devices, etc. that must be maintained or replaced and can become dislodged and cause arcing events;
- higher energy costs caused by additional resistances in the fuse holder and connections;
- larger equipment footprints;
- higher installation and service-life costs;
- the need to stock and replace fuses after overloads or short circuits
