Power protection for a power producer
Switzerland
Challenge
Azienda Elettrica Ticinese turned to ABB for power protection equipment to ensure energy availability and power continuity to the sensitive parts of its hydroelectric power plants.
Solution
The decision was made to install the DPA UPScale modular uninterruptible power supply. Since it fulfills all AET’s requirements: high energy availability, UPS product standardization, power quality, flexibility and high efficiency designed for medium-power applications.
Outcome
UPS delivers modular power protection in a single, industry-standard frame. Its flexible design provides a ‘pay-as-you-grow’ model so power modules can be added when required, without any footprint penalty. The customer also liked the easy installation and maintenance servicing is easy as modules can be replaced without powering down that assured continuity of their critical processes.
