From Ormazabal

Ormazabal has installed a new High Power Laboratory in Spain. The requirements for the output of the High Power Laboratory are defined by the equipment ratings to be tested and Standards testing procedures.

The High Power Laboratory main equipment must withstand short circuit conditions continuously, so the development of this kind of installation is a complex process where the specifications for the design of the main equipment are very special.

In this article, the most important ratings, circuits and characteristics of this equipment can be found. The control system fulfills all the safety and operation technical requirements adapted to the particular needs of the laboratory and its main equipment. In this new High Power Laboratory automatic and remote operated systems are employed to maximize performance and improve the safety of the installation for test operators.

The measuring system has been developed to meet all the technical requirements according to IEC Standards and STL procedures.

Products & Services
Panelboards and Switchgear
Panelboards and switchgear are electrical distribution devices that convert incoming electrical power into several smaller circuits and provide overload protection in the form of fuses or circuit breakers.
Transfer Switches
Transfer switches transfer electrical power back and forth between two power systems or buses such as a utility power line and a backup motor-generator power supply.
Circuit Breakers
Circuit breakers are mechanical switching devices capable of breaking currents under specified abnormal circuit conditions.
