Are you faced with the choice of maintaining aging (or obsolete) electrical equipment due to reliability, availability of spare parts, cost of ongoing maintenance? Do you need to upgrade the equipment to increase fault or continuous rating or prefer to upgrade technology. Did you know, that there are upgrade solutions that bring together circuit breaker technology, engineering and installation expertise designed to minimize downtime, improve reliability and extend the life of your existing equipment.

Direct replacement and retrofill solutions involve new circuit breakers designed to fit into your existing switchgear with little-to-no cell modifications.

During this webcast, learn about how these different options work and why an upgrade provides many of the same advantages as installing new equipment but at a lower cost, and at a fraction of the time.

Congratulations!
