| | | | As severe storms become more frequent and more people work from home, outages at the edge of the grid are having a big impact. These areas are typically protected by overhead distribution transformer fuses, which operate whenever a fault is present. Up to 70% of these faults are caused by nuisance issues which lead to avoidable power outages. The VacuFuse II interrupter enables utilities to lower their maintenance costs and keep customer satisfaction high while building a modern, reliable grid. | | |
