Manual Maintenance Mode of a Circuit Breaker
![](https://kikglobal.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/nipuna-article-1024x535.jpg)
Circuit breakers are essential elements in electrical systems, engineered to provide advanced protection against circuit damage resulting from overloads or short circuits. These devices function as automatic interrupters that detect deviations in current flow and swiftly disrupt the circuit when the current exceeds a predefined threshold. By doing so, they mitigate risks associated with electrical […]
Why You need to consider the Temperature Rice inside an IP65 Outdoor Switchboard
![](https://kikglobal.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/Article-SH2Mr.-SanjeewaH-1024x697.jpg)
Considering temperature rise inside an outdoor switchboard is crucial for several reasons: Component Longevity: High temperatures can shorten the lifespan of electrical components and insulation. Prolonged exposure to elevated temperatures can lead to premature failure of circuit breakers, contactors, and other components, which may result in costly repairs or replacements. Safety: Excessive heat can increase […]

Clearance and creepage distances are essential considerations in designing bus bar systems, as they play a vital role in ensuring safety, reliability, and operational efficiency. This article provides a brief explanation of their significance and the possible faults that may arise if these distances have not adhered to standard specifications. Importance of Clearance and Creepage […]
Prevent Fires Before They Start: The Critical Role of Arc Fault Detection Devices (AFDDs) in Electrical Safety
![](https://kikglobal.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/why-afdds-no-text-1024x535.jpg)
Why AFDDs? Did you know that a significant number of building fires are sparked by faults in electrical installations? Aging cables, improper installation, or even a nibble from a curious rodent can damage cable insulation, leading to arc faults. These dangerous discharges of electricity between wires generate intense heat, posing a serious fire risk if […]
Understanding Isolation Transformers: Function, Theory, and Applications
![](https://kikglobal.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/Screenshot_334.png)
What is an Isolation Transformer? An isolation transformer is a type of transformer used to transfer electrical power from an alternating current (AC) power source to a device or circuit while isolating the powered device from the power source. This is achieved without direct electrical connection, providing safety and noise reduction benefits. How Does an […]
PROCESS OF SELECTING THE CORRECT BUSBAR SUPPORTS AND IT’S IMPORTANCE
![](https://kikglobal.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/02/01-3.348_1-1.png)
Importance of Busbar Supports in LV Switchgears Busbar supports play vital role in Low Voltage switchgears. Main idea is to hold and provide insulation to conductive busbars, which carry electrical currents inside the switchgear. These busbar supports secure the spacing between them and the proper alignment, avoiding any accidental contacts or minimizing the risk of […]
