Arc Flash and Low Voltage/ Over-Current Protective Devices (OCPDs)
An overview of the importance of conducting Arc Flash studies and how to interpret the results. You'll also learn about the different types of over-current protective devices and their role in mitigating the Arc Flash Hazard or reducing the Hazard Risk Category (HRC).

Innovation to Reality-Introducing State-of-the-Art Protection and Monitoring to Existing Low-Voltage Switchgear
In this paper, the authors discuss a unique approach to low-voltage switchgear protection and the process of transitioning this concept to a realworld application. The paper describes the architecture and functionality of this approach and explains how a centrally controlled system can provide advanced monitoring and protection functions much more effectively than existing systems.

Application of Switchgear and Switchboards
The choice of using either switchgear or switchboards must be based on many different criteria and the design of the power system requires thought be given to each one. Following are insights into just a few of the differences to help in making those decisions.
