FKI Switchgear's new Horizon Compact 15-kV Circuit Breaker uses a patented, low-energy magnetic actuator. The product is for the medium-voltage outdoor distribution market.

Deborah Anderson, U.S. operations director at FKI Switchgear said, "The Horizon Compact is the latest exciting addition to our Horizon family of products. Its compact design, installation versatility with pole-mounted and substation frame capabilities and its structural strength enables the breaker to be installed into the most extreme of environments.

“From the salty and sandy atmospheres of the hurricane regions in the South, to the frigid winters in the North and Canada, the Horizon Compact offers customers unrivalled reliability, protection and environmental endurance for outdoor circuit breakers,” she said.

FKI Switchgear is part of the FKI Group Plc and has manufacturing facilities in the United States, the UK and Australia.

FKI Switchgear will also be exhibiting each evening at The Hospitality Expo, Booth 76.
