01 Arc Protection VAMP 221 selective Arc Flash Protection for low and Medium Voltage Power systems custoMer beneFits Personnel Safety A fast and reliable arc protection system may save human lives in case of an arc fault arising in a switchgear during work in or near the installation. Reduces Loss of Production The shorter the operating time of the arc protection system the smaller the damage caused by the arc fault will be and the shorter the possible outage of the power supply. Prolonged Switchgear Life Cycle A modern arc protection systems increases the life-cycle expectancy of switchgear installations, investment decisions in new switchgear installations can be postponed and money can be saved by re-Vamping existing switchgear systems. Reduced Insurance Costs The faster and better the protection system of a power installation is, the more generous the insurance terms and costs will be. Modern society heavily depends on an uninterrupted supply of electric power. Prolonged power outages cause loss of business to the power supplier and loss of production to the power consumer. regardless how safe a power system is, faults do occur. this being the case the damage caused by power system faults must be kept to a minimum level. the ultimate solution is to selectively isolate the fault as fast as possible, while maintaining the operation of the healthy network parts. A VAMP arc protection system can principally be implemented in three different ways, as a autonomous master unit...
