Protect LV electrical switchgear with continuous thermal monitoring

Exertherm CTM enables the following critical LV bus and cable terminations to be monitored simultaneously and in real-time:

Low-voltage busbar joints:

  • IR sensors monitor ACB main incomers, line, and load side
  • IR sensors monitor both sides of any bus couplers or tie breakers
  • IR sensors monitor ACB feeders load side
  • IR sensors monitor shipping/transport splits and other critical connections that are made on-site

Low-voltage cable terminations:

  • Cable sensors monitor ACB main incomers, line side
  • Cable sensors monitor ACB feeders, load side

Benefits
