Solar Charging Option for Transmission Switches

Operator can be supplied with a solar detection board and fuse kit

80 W. solar panels available with mounting rack Number of panels dependent upon power

demand of RTU and radio and number of sun-hours per day

Supplemental battery pack available for carry-over days Size (amp-hours) of battery pack dependent

upon power demand and the number of carryover days desired

PTAD - Poletop Switch Automation

PTAD Application

For distribution switches rated to 38 kV

Switch operation without the use of vertical operating pipe

Retrofitable to new or existing switches operating with or without vertical operating pipe

Adaptable to any switch mounting configuration

Superior Operational Features

Constant ready operation state – no mechanism wind-up required

Lockout of the motor by using a hotstick from ground level

After manual operation, the motor can be re-synchronized with the switch locally or remotely via SCADA

True switch position status is always reported

Timesaving Installation and Operation Features

No setting of limit switches required during installation

No decoupling procedure necessary – the PTAD automatically decouples for manual operation

No decoupling procedure required for lockout

Decoupling not required to test the motor

PAD - Padmount Automation Switch Controller

PAD Features

Utilizes the proven ADMO control package

Multi-way controllers available Adaptable to mount on any

padmount switch Provisions for electrical and

manual operation Adjustable open & close limits Decoupler / Lock-Out provision Fast and easy installation
