Ensuring system reliability involves selecting the right equipment. The JAMALI System and Tonga Power Limited (TPL) faced similar issues with high solar and wind penetration, which were resolved with G&W Electric’s Teros® recloser. Available globally (except in the US and Canada), the Teros recloser features integrated sensors for distribution automation, high-speed fault clearing, and enhanced reliability. “Reclosers are the global solution for expanding and modernizing distribution networks,” says John Mueller, chairman and owner of G&W Electric.
