Don’t Postpone Circuit Breaker Modernization

Aging equipment may not meet modern reliability and safety standards, but Circuit Breakers Sales’ experts can help.

Many circuit breakers and bolted pressure switches from the 1970s and ’80s are still in service today. Once the backbone of 480-V distribution systems, these mechanical workhorses have fallen behind modern microprocessor-based circuit breakers and could put your operations at unnecessary risk.

Postponing modernization too long can have consequences. Aging equipment is susceptible to nuisance trips, calibration drift, and mechanical failures, which can cause unplanned downtime and potential safety hazards.

Circuit Breaker Sales and Advanced Electrical & Motor Controls (AEAMC) offer life extension services to upgrade your operations.

Read this blog to learn about your options and how we partner with CBS Field Services to retrofit new current-series circuit breakers and replace existing bolted pressure switches with minimal modifications.
