The new gener­a­tion of measure­ment equip­ment for low-voltage distri­b­u­tion boards

JEAN MÜLLER provides its customers in the low-voltage power distri­b­u­tion sector with compo­nents and systems featuring a new gener­a­tion of measuring elec­tronics that can with­stand high-voltage tests as part of main­te­nance tasks.

Due to the legal require­ment for recording energy data in the supply network, measuring elec­tronics are increas­ingly being used in NH fuse-switch discon­nec­tors. These are oper­ated at a low voltage range up to 24 V, which is in conflict with the perfor­mance of routine main­te­nance tasks with volt­ages up to 5,000 V, such as cable fault loca­tion. This dilemma has now been resolved with the new gener­a­tion of measure­ment elec­tronics from JEAN MÜLLER.
“Until now, it was not possible to use measuring elec­tronics in the low-voltage range and carry out the neces­sary high-voltage tests as part of cable fault loca­tion without destroying the measure­ment elec­tronics,” says Torsten Wolf, Senior Product Manager at JEAN MÜLLER. “With the new gener­a­tion of measuring elec­tronics for our NH fuse-switch discon­nec­tors, we have succeeded in resolving this conflict. This enables our customers to meet the require­ments of smart grids and recon­cile this with the usual main­te­nance tasks.”
