AP5000 Arc Protection System

      AP5000 is an arc protection system used in low and medium voltage switchgears. AP5000 arc protection system ensures personnel’s safety and minimizes material damages in case of an arc.Arc short-circuit is seldom occurring failure event which causes explosive heat and pressure effect. Protection is based for the light of the arc and at the same time strongly rising current. When arc short-circuit is occurring AP5000 reacts and gives tripping information to the breakers, in less than one milliseconds.
