QUICK-TRIPTM
Reduce arcflash potential with the flip of a switch !
for your 600 volt AC Power Distribution Substations.

Reducing Arc Flash Hazard isn’t always easy…
Until now, options for reducing arc flash potential during normal maintenance periods in low voltage substations have been limited:
  1. De-enrgizing the substation during maintenance... not always feasible.
  2. Lower the available fault current for the substation... may not be an option.
  3. Shorten the trip time of the upstream breaker during maintenance... now made fast and easy with QUICK-TRIPTM.

QUICK-TRIPTM is designed to operate with our AC-PROTM trip unit retrofit kits for air circuit breakers to provide a safe, fast and reliable means of reducing arcflash incident energy (cal/cm2) levels, heat energy from an arc blast, during maintenance period.

Turning the QUICK-TRIPTM switch ON enables two additional settings in the AC-PROTM trip unit that can be preprogrammed to provide faster tripping times in the event of a fault; resulting in lower incident energy levels. Lower incident energy levels mean a lower Risk Hazard Category and consequently, lower PPE requirements according to NFPA 70E

  • QUICK-TRIPTM settings are only active when the switch is in the ON position.
  • System coordination is preserved when the switch is OFF.
  • Switch cover can be padlocked and incorporated into a lock-out tag-out LOTO procedure.
  • QUICK-TRIPTM LED confirms operation.
  • May permit lower PPE rating clothing to be worn.
  • All settings and Last Trip Data can be reviewd on the PRO-DISPLAYTM mounted outside the cubicle door.
  • PRO-DISPLAYTM provide continous 3-phase current metering.
