Arresters
Next to your people, your power grid infrastructure is your largest and most valuable investment. Protect it with Hubbell Power Systems, Inc. surge arresters. Every lightning strike, insulator flashover and switching surge adds wear and tear to your equipment, prematurely aging it, and requiring you to shoulder the costs of replacement. Even the smallest surge can shorten your equipment’s life. Surge arresters, however, extend the life of your system by limiting the voltage across your equipment during a surge event.

Contact Resistance Meter
The Motwane Manufacturing Company
High contact resistance values are a definite cause of the failure or less than optimal performance in a wide variety of electrical devices. Contact resistance testing is therefore most critical to measure the resistance of electrical connections in switching devices, circuit breakers, isolators, busbars, relays, joints, connectors, cables, and cable joints. The device helps to find destructive or corroded contacts and hence protects substation devices from damage.
