SECTIONALIZER 

Overhead Networks

SECTIONALISER (SN)
OVERHEAD NETWORKS

Isolate the Fault.
Protect the Healthy Network.

We have designed the Sectionalizer for reliable field operation on Indian distribution networks, providing a critical layer of fault isolation that minimises the extent of consumer interruption during persistent fault events. It works in coordination with an upstream Auto-Recloser or circuit breaker to isolate a faulty section of a distribution feeder, allowing supply to be restored to all unaffected sections without requiring manual intervention.
