Schneider Electric has introduced the LAZER Low Voltage Direct Replacement Program for circuit breakers in order to modernize older electrical gear. Through the use of pre-stocked kits, the program reduces the time required for sourcing and obtaining replacement equipment from the industry norm of 12 to 14 weeks to as little as seven days, plus shipping.
Schneider Electric’s LAZER program low voltage direct replacement solutions not only arrive quickly, but also are able to fit into the existing electrical cubicle with little-to-no modification of the switchgear cell. This enables customers to upgrade existing electrical equipment more efficiently for increased reliability without facing the high cost or lengthy downtime of traditional equipment replacement. In addition, electrical personnel are not limited to the current equipment brand—especially when modern replacements can be difficult to find—or hassled with the process of reengineering the electrical system footprint.
The LAZER program factory-tested kits are available for commonly used SquareD, Allis-Chalmers, ITE, ABB, BBC, Cutler-Hammer/Westinghouse, and General Electric (GE) circuit breakers. They are pre-built, custom sized, and configured with all options and accessories. In addition, all circuit breakers in the LAZER Program feature Masterpact™ NW/NT technology, providing customers with built-in metering and communications capabilities. They meet all IEEE C37.59 standards and are backed by Schneider Electric’s standard equipment warranty.
By upgrading your old or underperforming switchgear, you can enjoy enhanced safety and compliance while your facility becomes much more cost efficient and reliable.
Interesting blog about circuits breaks and how we can prevent this from happening.Thanks for sharing the blog.
