AFR-M Busbar ARC Flash Protection Relay is a cost-effective solution that reduces arc-fault damage, by detecting the light from an arc flash and rapidly tripping in low-voltage (LV) or medium-voltage (MV) electrical networks. This arc flash protection relay can access a maximum of 48 ultraviolet optical sensors. Preset programs of the arc flash relay can protect the safe operation of the bus circuit to the greatest extent.
