    * Note: two versions: one contained a 16-cylinder 7HDL, co-developed by GE and the German firm Deutz-MWM, rated at 6000 HP; the other a 16-cylinder 7FDL rated at 4390 HP. The units equipped with the 7FDL were a sub-version AC6000 "Convertible" and were produced to get the type into operation while the 7HDL was developed.

    Angie's List and NBC Bay Area both highlighted an October 2002 ruling in a New Jersey Superior Court, which found that FPE (Federal Pacific Electric), the manufacturer of the Stab-Lok breakers and panels, "knowingly and purposefully [sic] distributed circuit breakers which were not tested to meet UL standards as indicated on their label".

  5. GE Universal Series - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GE_Universal_Series

    The GE Universal Series is a series of diesel locomotives intended for the export market introduced by General Electric in early 1956. General Electric had previously partnered with Alco , producing locomotives for export using Alco's 244 engine , and provided electrical parts for Alco's domestic production.

  6. Vacuum interrupter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vacuum_interrupter

    In 1956, Hugh C. Ross at Jennings Radio Manufacturing Corporation revolutionized the high-frequency-circuit vacuum switch and produced a vacuum switch with a rating of 15 kV at 200 A. Five years later, Thomas H. Lee at General Electric produced the first vacuum circuit breakers [2] [3] with a rated voltage of 15 kV at short-circuit breaking ...

  7. Switchgear - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Switchgear

    Breakers that use carbon dioxide as the insulating and arc extinguishing medium work on the same principles as a sulfur hexafluoride (SF 6) breaker. Because SF 6 is a greenhouse gas more potent than CO 2, by switching from SF 6 to CO 2 it is possible to reduce the greenhouse gas emissions by 10 tons during the product lifecycle. [5]

  8. Residual-current device - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Residual-current_device

    A residual-current device (RCD), residual-current circuit breaker (RCCB) or ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) [a] is an electrical safety device, more specifically a form of Earth-leakage circuit breaker, that interrupts an electrical circuit when the current passing through line and neutral conductors of a circuit is not equal (the term residual relating to the imbalance), therefore ...

  9. Sulfur hexafluoride circuit breaker - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sulfur_hexafluoride...

    Sulfur hexafluoride circuit breakers protect electrical power stations and distribution systems by interrupting electric currents, when tripped by a protective relay. Instead of oil, air, or a vacuum, a sulfur hexafluoride circuit breaker uses sulfur hexafluoride (SF 6 ) gas to cool and quench the arc on opening a circuit.
