Revolutionary turnkey solution for utilities to improve system reliability and grid resiliency
<\/i><\/p>\n

BOLINGBROOK, Ill.<\/span>, March 25, 2022<\/span> \/PRNewswire\/ — G&W Electric<\/a>, a global supplier of electric power equipment since 1905, today announced the launch of its Viper\u00ae-HV Recloser up to 72.5kV. The market’s first high-voltage pole top recloser supports faster overcurrent protection through fault isolation and automatic restoration for temporary faults on overhead sub-transmission lines.<\/p>\n

<\/div><p>”As we’ve seen recently, the fragile state of our nation’s electrical infrastructure has severe consequences to our safety and economy,” said John Mueller, chairman and owner of G&amp;W Electric. “We are committed to partnering with utilities to identify vulnerabilities and deliver state-of-the-art solutions like the Viper-HV recloser for functionality right on the sub-transmission lines. Until today, that was only available by installing high-cost substations.”<\/p> <p>Uniquely designed as a self-contained system featuring three-in-one capabilities of a recloser, CTs, and integrated internal voltage sensors, the Viper-HV provides utilities improved performance on a pole to automatically clear temporary faults and isolate only that section of the grid to protect additional lines from going down and preventing an entire region from losing power.<\/p> <p>The Viper-HV offers utilities installation flexibility through a variety of configurations, including phase-over-phase and cross-arm versions to match existing line infrastructure. G&amp;W Electric offers site-ready designs with pre-installed accessories and flexible solutions tailored to meet environmental challenges.<\/p> <p>”In an effort to develop the grid of the future, the Viper-HV recloser also offers solutions that will help utilities reduce future cost such as maintenance, replacing equipment and outage penalties,” added Mueller.<\/p> <p>Without the need for oil or gas, the Viper-HV reduces routine maintenance and improves personnel safety. Additionally, the vacuum interrupter and other energized parts are sealed within field proven solid-dielectric insulation, providing optimum operator safety and additional protection to discourage wildlife interference.<\/p> <p>For additional information on the Viper-HV Recloser, please visit <a href=”https:\/\/c212.net\/c\/link\/?t=0&amp;l=en&amp;o=3482331-1&amp;h=4271107193&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fc212.net%2Fc%2Flink%2F%3Ft%3D0%26l%3Den%26o%3D3436791-1%26h%3D850254237%26u%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Fsolutions.gwelec.com%252Fhigh-voltage%252F%26a%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Fsolutions.gwelec.com%252Fhigh-voltage%252F&amp;a=https%3A%2F%2Fsolutions.gwelec.com%2Fhigh-voltage%2F” target=”_blank” rel=”nofollow”>https:\/\/solutions.gwelec.com\/high-voltage\/<\/a>.<\/p> <p><b>About G&amp;W Electric<br\/><\/b>Since 1905, G&amp;W Electric has helped power the world with innovative power grid solutions and products.
