Automatic circuit breakers and load break switches are an integral part of protection, interruption and isolation. By choosing the right switch we can achieve maximum protection and minimum downtime. In addition, smart switches enable us to go beyond protection and supervision of our installation. We can easily get information about the operating status of the switch, as well as the current, power and even the harmonic distortion in our network. Finally, with the right choice of switches we can reduce the overall cost and complexity of an application by simplifying functions such as automatic switching, source paralleling, load shedding, etc. Switches come with a wide range of accessories such as status contacts, control coils, remote control motors, etc.

Power factor correction is one of the main problems faced by engineers. To achieve the optimal solution we need to define the type of compensation (local, central, group) and then choose the appropriate materials. Materials include capacitors, capacitor relays, which are designed to withstand high starting currents, reactive power controllers, choke coils, etc. In selecting the appropriate equipment we should always take into account the harmonic contamination of our network, as it can significantly affect the lifetime of the capacitors.
