Protection & Control

Protection focuses on safeguarding equipment and personnel from faults like overcurrents and short circuits. It employs devices such as circuit breakers and fuses to automatically interrupt dangerous current flow. Relays act as intelligent sensors, detecting abnormal conditions and initiating tripping mechanisms. Surge protection devices shield against voltage spikes, preventing damage to sensitive electronics. Effective protection minimizes equipment damage, reduces downtime, and, most importantly, ensures safety. Control, on the other hand, manages the normal operation of the electrical system. This involves devices like switches, contactors, and control relays to start, stop, and regulate electrical equipment. Control systems can range from simple manual operation to complex automated processes. They ensure efficient energy usage, optimize system performance, and allow for precise operation of connected loads. Together, protection and control create a reliable and safe electrical infrastructure.
