New Hakel Headquarters in Russia Under Construction
The new headquarters of AO HAKEL in Russia in Gorelov is starting to get its shape. The completion of the construction is set for October 2020
All-Purpose Voltage Limiter for Railway Applications
The HAKEL HGS100RW all-purpose voltage limiter for railway applications is a piece of protective electro-technical equipment that has a conductive connection to a tower providing tractive support (OLE) and to the rail via a 10mm conductor. Since rails are insulated, devices are used that only allow through voltages higher than:
- 250 V – places accessible to the public (HGS100RW 250V)
- 500 V – places not accessible to the public (HGS100RW 500V)
The voltage limiter is used in areas where dangerous contact voltages could occur. In these areas all conductive equipment – such as TV towers, bridges, fences, gutters, etc. and excluding conductive structures that are small or that do not contain or support electric equipment – must be fitted with such equipment.
