Remote Cable Disconnect Increases Safety On Breaker Box
PROBLEM

This customer wanted to insure that the power was disconnected when an operator opened a breaker box.

SOLUTION

After reviewing several approaches, it was decided to use flexible cables that connected the cabinet handle directly to the main circuit breaker.

As the operator unlatches the box door, the power is automatically disconnected. The flexible cable allows the door to be opened as usual.

We typically think of flexible push-pull cables as throttle and transmission controls, however there are a number of other problems they solve.

We have a complete assembly shop which allows us to make the custom cable you need — typically the same day that you call!
