The reliability of the grid depends on how circuits are configured. Even with great segmentation, radial circuits have limitations, and all customers downstream of a sustained fault experience an outage. However, by tying two radial circuits together in a loop, faults can be isolated, and power can be restored from another source. Using its automatic loop restoration capability, S&C’s IntelliRupter® PulseCloser® Fault Interrupter’s automatically isolates faults and reroutes power to customers in unfaulted areas to drastically improve reliability—all without communications or custom protection logic.
