What are Switchgear Materials?
Electrical switchgear materials are the materials that control electrical circuits, ensure the protection of circuits, and are used for switching these circuits. In addition, these materials have the feature of opening, closing, opening in overcurrent, short circuit, and working in currents with circulation.
Switchgear Usage Areas
It is possible to use switchgear materials that contain products such as fuses, switches, relays, and fuse boxes in different areas depending on the voltage height and product type. Indoors, outdoor spaces, fuses and switches, energy storage, prevention of short-circuit damage, and detection of errors are just a few of the areas of use of the products.
What are Switchgear Materials?
Surge arrester: Surge arresters are used to protect electrical systems against overvoltage pulses.
Surge arresters, the protection elements that protect the electrical systems against sudden overvoltage impulses, which are normally passive, and connected parallel to the system, are called Surge Arresters.
Switch: A switch is an electrical product called a circuit breaker. The purpose of this product called circuit breaker is that it allows the electrical circuits to be opened and closed. It can also be preferred for switching. Switches are divided into types depending on the current size, voltage, and operating environment. Among the most important types of switches are thermal, paco, magnetic, latch, load, compact, double-speed, and low-voltage switches.
Contactor: The contactor is an effective part that is effective in protecting the motor system and is used in the switching of motors. It is a part that resembles a relay in terms of operating performance. However, it is suitable for use at high currents.
Thermal Relay: A thermal relay is an electrical protection device that serves to protect the motor in case of overload. By using a thermal relay, the 1-phase and 3-phase motor is prevented from becoming unusable and overheating.
Auto Insurance: The fuse is the opening element that protects the devices used in electrical circuits and the cables that feed these devices from overcurrents and save the circuits and the device from damage. Feeding lines; It is the circuit element that protects against overload currents and short circuit currents.
Residual Current Protection Relay: These are the devices that detect the leakage current that occurs in electrical circuits and installations and provide protection for the installation with the detection they make. In addition, these devices assist in protecting people's lives because they block leakage currents. Residual current protection relays are known by names such as KAKR and residual current switch.
Separator: Separators serve to open the circuit in a no-load state after the line current is interrupted. Separators are often used in conjunction with cutters. To perform maintenance work on a faulty system, the circuit is first cut off by opening the breaker.
When we first set out as the Tekpan family, we started our activities with electro-assembly works and continue to serve in this field with a more independent team. Our industrial panels and cabinets in all these electrical equipment; We manufacture our products in a way that prioritizes functionality, easy assembly, and human safety and export to many countries in the world.
