unbalance, overvoltage) increase transparency in power distribution systems, enabling these situations to be dealt with quickly. A communication host can send short text messages to the cell phones of maintenance personnel. Prompt analysis of this data enables targeted intervention in the process and helps reduce system down time.

Information for preventive maintenance (e.g. the number of operating cycles or hours) enables timely personnel and material scheduling, which increases system availability and helps prevent sensitive system components from being damaged.

Communication helps provide rapid and targeted information on the location and cause of power failures. The cause of the fault can be determined by recording the

Thousands of options with just a few components: That's the WL. A new generation of circuit breakers – from 200A to 5000A – with a modular design to support every conceivable application in power distribution systems – cost effective and flexible, its communication functionality enables it to be integrated in system solutions.

Cost Saving

Whatever the configuration, the WL Circuit Breaker does the job where it matters. Advantages include simple retrofitting and a compact design benefiting everyone who uses WL Circuit Breakers, whether in planning, business, or whether they develop or operate switchgear systems.

phase currents (e.g. trip as a result of a short-circuit of 2317 A in phase L2 on 08/27/2002 at 14:27). This information can be used to quickly rectify the fault and reduces downtime for quicker recovery.

Measuring and communicating power, power factor and energy allows an even greater number of applications. The availibility of power consumption data on a targeted basis for business analysis enables power profiles to be created and costs to be clearly assigned. In this way, energy costs can be allocated and optimized by balancing the peak loads.
