Eaton’s metal-enclosed breaker (MEB) switchgear consists of a single high-drawout vacuum circuit breaker (Type VCP-W) in a metal-enclosed cabinet.
When deployed as primary protection for a single-ended substation, the MEB can eliminate the need for a secondary main circuit breaker. It can also be applied as the primary main device and integrated with fused or unfused feeder switches in Eaton metal-enclosed switchgear. The MEB 5/15kV switchgear meets or exceeds all required industry standards (IEEE, ANSI and NEMA).
Explore the benefits of Eaton’s MR2, an arc flash safety solution for MV switchgear auxiliaries and circuit breakers.
