NOJA Power Auto Recloser operating Smart Grids below freezing

Despite the harsh weather condition, NOJA Power OSM reclosers are operating reliably throughout the region.

During winter, NOJA Power reclosers are used to secure and protect power networks. Remote monitoring, control and intelligent self healing capabilities of these reclosers allow power networks to operate efficiently and reliably under extreme weather conditions.

Heavy snow and road blocks can mean decreased accessibility to remote power distribution equipment; NOJA Power's smart reclosers restore power after faults occur automatically where possible. They can also automatically isolate a fault to protect the rest of the network.

NOJA Power's automated intelligent reclosers are rated for use in environmental extremes from -40°C to +55°C ambient temperature. They are used in a wide range of locations and scenarios from thunder storms, lightning strikes in tropics to snow storm and blitzes in cold environments.

Installing several smart reclosers in series to sectionalise faulted sections of line during heavy snow storms helps utilities increase reliability.
