Africa relies heavily on the Middle East for oil supply. So when a refinery in Africa needed us to quickly replace their electrical switchgear, we were eager to help them avoid any disruption in their own fuel processing capabilities.
BCS provided Westinghouse, WFS Switch, Fusible indoor 5kv 1200amp switches. The customer was in a hurry and didn’t want to wait on new equipment with a long lead time from the manufacturer. We replaced their older gear and added some new circuits in the process. The WFS Fusible Switch lineup combines fuses in single enclosures, providing an easy way to manually open and close the circuit while the fuses protect against overcurrent.
Basically, the metal enclosed load interrupter Switchgear is an integrated assembly of switches, buses and fuses coordinated electrically and mechanically for circuit protection.
