Low-voltage switchgear, designed to distribute three-phase power, is a critical part of an electrical power system. Erik Hurd, Senior Power System Experience Center (PSEC) Engineer, teaches us the important aspects of low-voltage switchgear such as: - What is low-voltage switchgear? - Low-voltage switchgear components - Design options for low-voltage switchgear (UL 1558) - Main features of LVA - Standards and ratings - Safety technologies Collectively, these aspects improve safety and enhance connectivity of modern low-voltage switchgear, and in turn increase the reliability of power systems. Visit our Eaton site for various low-voltage switchgear options we offer: https://www.eaton.com/us/en-us/products/low-voltage-power-distribution-control-systems/switchgear-lv.html Learn about technologies and power systems upstream of low-voltage switchgear: - Medium voltage switchgear: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nNWb5JEshAM - Transformers 101: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CKgiV0wfDQA Thank you for watching one of our many educational videos on the topic of power systems.
