Protecting the electric power grid
Substations are vital to the electric power grid - they reduce transmission voltages to usable levels, distribute power in multiple directions and include specialized circuit breakers to isolate portions of the grid in case of a downed power line or other problems.
DC power with battery backup is the preferred source of power for substation circuit breakers and controls because the equipment must operate whether or not AC grid power is available. Reliable SENS chargers are widely used in the US power grid, and in substations in South America, the Middle East and Asia. SENS chargers thus form a vital link in delivering dependable, safe electric power.
