The mechanical opening of a DC circuit under load always leads to arcing, requiring much higher forces for switching and handle the arcing.

Contactors for DC switching

For lamp loads ABB offers lamp starter combinations consisting of a MS132-L or MS132-LC lamp circuit breaker and AF-...L lamp contactors. Typical applications are streetlights, greenhouses, and commercial and industrial buildings.

Lamp starting solutions

In Low Voltage industrial installations, capacitors are used for reactive energy correction. When these capacitors are energized, over-currents of high amplitude and high frequencies (3 to 15 kHz) occur during the transient period (1 to 2 ms).

Capacitor Switching

Low voltage transformers are used to supply control power to control and auxiliary circuits in distribution and automation boards and to provide galvanic isolation. Vulnerable to electrical failures, they need a proper protection.
