Standard combination transformer feeds were supplied with two individual load-break\/fault-make disconnect isolation switches. Individual Class E current limited fuses were provided along with individual vacuum isolation contactors for shunt protection, as well as a feeder protection relay. It was installed in one enclosure with two flange mount disconnects, which provided lock-out\/tag-out of each system. Each section provided a low voltage section, and Benshaw was able to provide on, off, fault indication, and meter readouts. Additional protection included ground fault protection using CT\u2019s in each section.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3><em>Electrical Solutions to Mechanical Problems<\/em><\/h3>\n<p>Benshaw is widely recognized as a leading provider of applied motor control technologies.
