Eaton's arc flash relays provide flexible options allow installers to choose between fiber optic loop cable that is installed in the field and can be labor intensive, or wired point sensors that are factory-installed, reducing labor time and cost as well as streamlining equipment lead times.
The system can measure both light and current to eliminate nuisance operation, and offers an innovative modular design that allows for simple integration into electrical assemblies, ideal for both new and retrofit installations. The system also helps address arc flash safety concerns outlined in National Fire Protection Agency (NFPA) standard 70E, which covers employee workplace electrical safety requirements.
