CHI Control Components
An agreement concluded recently with the Eaton Corporation of the United States has enabled CHI Control Components to offer users the widest circuit breaker range now available in Southern Africa.
The range includes MCBs from 1 to 100 A, earth leakage units and MCCBs ranging from 16 to 2 500 A at 18 to 100 kA. A range of low voltage air circuit breakers, available in three- or four-pole, fixed or withdrawable models, is designed for applications ranging from 800 to 6 300 A.
