These upgrades enable the use of new options and accessories, such as arc reduction modes and Zone Selective Interlocking (ZSI), while addressing parts availability concerns for circuit breaker repairs. Upgrades are available for various circuit breaker manufacturers.

With these enhancements, Russelectric provides a reliable, cost-effective solution to keep mission-critical power systems up-to-date and efficient.
