AREVA T&D is pleased to announce the extension of one of its premier products: the FKG Generator Circuit Breaker (GCB) for the +600 MW unit power generation market segment.

The FKG with its fully spring operating mechanism is now available with ratings up to 160 kA of short-circuit current and up to 26,000 Amps of nominal current.

This gigantic step forward in high performance ratings places AREVA T&D in an elite group of top quality manufacturers serving this very selective market segment for large hydro, thermal, and nuclear power plants.

Technological advances in AREVA T&D’s FK3 spring operating mechanism made this extension possible and offer many advantages not possible with other types of mechanisms: low maintenance costs, maximum energy stability, higher reliability, and the elimination of any oil leak risk.

A sequential inter-locking system ensures complete safety during operation and maintenance. AREVA T&D’s patented cooling system is inspired by experience gained with GCBs for nuclear power plants. An efficient and optimized monitoring system, the CBWatch-2 for pro-active maintenance, makes the FKG Generator Circuit Breaker the ideal solution for all high-power generation sites.
