Generator circuit breaker - suppliers? 1

[epesmh]

Hi.

I am currently working with a client, and they want us to make a list of different suppliers of GCBs, both well known and unknown.
Our client wants to investigate what their option is and to what cost - I’ve got some knowledge but since our company always buys ABB og Siemens we are in need for some info.

Does anymore know what suppliers there are? The GCB needs ratings between 5-20kV, Isc between 10-63kA, In between 1000-5000A and must be in accordance to IEC norms.

A breaker is a breaker. Eaton, Schneider, ABB and Siemens all do breakers. Other suppliers?

Generator Circuit Breker is not everyone's cup of tea. ABb ( now Hitachi Energy) and Alstom(now GE) are the leaders.

Unclebob, a breaker is not a breaker for all applications. See Siemens Tech Topic 71 to learn why generator circuit breakers are different from distribution circuit breakers.
