S&C's new IntelliRupter PulseCloser is for fault testing on overhead lines. It was designed to accommodate advanced feeder automation functions and incorporates PulseClosing™ technology. To test for faults PulseClosing applies a very fast, low-energy pulse to the line, significantly reducing damaging fault currents and voltage sags on the faulted line as well as adjacent feeders. IntelliRupter and PulseClosing Technology can be applied in enhanced non-communicating loop restoration systems that test the line for faults without exposing a good alternate circuit to disruptive fault current.
