2. Generator interlock kit - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generator_Interlock_Kit

   Early generator interlock kits consisted of two sliding steel or plastic (depending on the brand) plates held together by three bolts and installed on the front cover of the home's breaker panel, however, some models made by Eaton (formerly Cutler-Hammer) and Siemens for panels manufactured by them install on the adjacent circuit breakers themselves and consist of a sliding arm for breakers ...

3. Interlock (engineering) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interlock_(engineering)

   An interlock device is designed to allow a generator to provide backup power in such a way that it (a) prevents main and generator power to be connected at the same time, and (b) allows circuit breakers to operate normally without interference in the event of an overload condition. Most interlock devices for electrical systems employ a ...

4. Lockout–tagout - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lockout–tagout

   Lockout Tagout hasp can accommodate up to 6 padlocks, can be used during group LOTO procedure. Lock out, tag out or lockout–tagout (LOTO) is a safety procedure used to ensure that dangerous equipment is properly shut off and not able to be started up again prior to the completion of maintenance or repair work.

5. Recloser - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recloser

   Automatically closing the breaker after it has tripped and stayed open for a brief amount of time, usually after 1 to 5 seconds, is a standard procedure. [ 5 ] Reclosers are often used as a key component in a smart grid , as they are effectively computer controlled switchgear which can be remotely operated and interrogated using supervisory ...

6. Circuit breaker - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circuit_breaker

   Two-pole common-trip breakers are common on 120/240-volt systems where 240 volt loads (including major appliances or further distribution boards) span the two live wires. Three-pole common-trip breakers are typically used to supply three-phase power to powerful motors or further distribution boards.

7. 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 ...
