Which SENS DC power system is right for my switchgear application: PowerCab2 or MicroCab?

PowerCab2 supports a wider range of voltages, loads, and system setups, while MicroCab is a compact outdoor option for 12, 24, or 48 VDC applications.

How does a pre-engineered DC power system simplify switchgear projects?

A pre-engineered system combines the charger, batteries, protection, DC distribution, and monitoring in a factory-assembled and tested package. This approach can reduce engineering effort, field wiring, installation labor, and commissioning variables compared with assembling components on site.

Can SENS switchgear power systems be used outdoors?

Yes. SENS DC power systems are available in configurations designed for outdoor installation. Enclosure selection and environmental options should be based on site conditions and project requirements.

Does SENS manufacture or sell switchgear?

No. SENS supplies the DC power systems used to operate switchgear. SENS does not manufacture or sell the switchgear itself.

Switchgear Power Systems

High system reliability for critical operations with consistent performance across varying load and fault conditions.

Simplified specification and deployment. Our systems are configured to the application requirements.

Integrated architecture minimizes field wiring and configuration. System arrives tested, preassembled, and engineered to your switchgear.

Solutions specifically for switchgear applications

Support standard system voltages such as 24V, 48V, and 125V DC.
Provide power to trip coils, closing circuits, protective relays, and monitoring equipment, ensuring consistent operation during both normal and fault conditions.
Each solution combines power conversion, battery storage, and DC distribution into a pre-engineered, cabinetized system, reducing design complexity and installation time while improving system consistency.
SENS systems arrive pre-engineered and tested, with UL Listed and seismic-certified configurations available.
