NUCON has been manufacturing high voltage disconnecting switches since almost two decades. The supply lilist includes varius Electricity Board, Utilities, Industrial Units and public Sector Undertakings. The company has been exporting the disconnecting switches to varius countries for some more thean eight years now.  Construction Disconnecting switches are used for isolation of system under fault conditions or carrying out the maintenance work without disturbing the main supply network. The disconnecting switches are made as per relevant standards and the customer's specifications. They are made with and without earth switches with mechanical / electrical interlocks, manually or motorized operated mechanism, having capacity to interrupt line charging currents. The current carrying parts are made of electrolytic grade copper. The contacts are designed to provide discharge free supply. The arcing horns ensure that main contacts remain safe during opening and closing operations thus giving a longer life to the switch. The metal parts are surface treated for protection against rust. The switches are tested from approved labs for high short circuit currents.  Application Depending upon the requirments, off load disconnecting switches are made in horizontal, vertical, single break, double break, and center break models. Company also developed disconnecting switches , single break spring assisted models up to 33KV aerial application in both vertical and horizontal mounting. These switches have ] great operator's comfort, load making as well as load breaking capabilities. These switches are most preffered in rural and urban electrification in africa.   Operation Down the years we have been working to better the switches in operation. Bearings and Bushes were standardized to reduce the torque . Most of the manually operated switches can be operated with less than 30 kg operating weight. We have also provided rod insulator in ost of the models to ensure operator's safety in the event of main insulators leakage.

Drop out fuses are used for fault protections in rural electrification, distribution system,industrial units having medium voltage connections both as primary and secondary back ups. The drop out fuse should operate before the connected equipment i.e transformer gets damaged. Generally D.O Fuses are used as switching device along with protection and operated with the telescopic insulated rods from the ground level. The operation of drop out fuse is extremely violent. Once the fuse blows off,the arc restrikes till it is quenched.Even few cycles are sufficient to damage the current carrying parts and the barrel.NUCON over a period of time has aquired expertise in the manufacturing of drop out fuses to withstand such short circuit currents. The NUCON drops out fuses are designed to accomodate button head type fuse elements. The high pressure,electroplated copper alloy components are used to provide better contacts and longer life. NUCON manufactures various models as per IEC 282-2 or IS 9385-2 to customer needs. single insulator type,Bracket type & Universal type models are available up to 33KV.

Transformers are tailer-made products and the deisgn varies with the impedence levels (constant Ohmic and constant percentage), transmission voltage and cooling requirments. These are normally provided with on load tap changer for voltage variations. For long distance ruler power distribution lines, speacial autotransformers with automatic tap changing equipments are inserted as voltage regulations, so that customers at the far end of the line receive the same average voltage as those closer to the source. The variable ratio of the autotransformers compensates for the voltage drop along the line.  Salient Features Thermally upgraded paper to improve transformer life time Low flux density to withstand severe over excitation Use of magnetic shields to control strong flux optimum losses Better shield circuit strength enviornment friendly   Stadard Features Base on tried and tested technologies Meeting the latest I.E.C technical specification Large overload capability depending on the ambient temperature Large over voltage capability on generator side to withstand the overvoltage coming for load rejections customized solution Satisfying specific customer requests Equipments for indoor and outdoor usage

ACSR conductors consist of a solid or stranded steel core surrounded by strands of aluminium (E.C.Grade). ACSR conductors are available in a wide range of steel, containing carbon from 0.5% to 0.85%. The higher strength ACSR conductors are used for river crossings, overhead ground wires, installation involving extra long spans etc. Against any given resistance of conductor,ACSR may be manufactured for having a wide range of tensile strength as per the requirement. The principle advantage of these conductors are high tensile strength so that they are used for longer spans with less supports. Due to greater diameter of ACSR conductors a much higher corona limit can be obtained causing big advantages on high as well as extra high voltage overhead lines. AAC conductors are made out of Hard drawn EC Grade(min 61% IACS) Aluminium wires stranded in successive layers in opposite direction to form the Aluminium stranded AAC Conductor up to 61 wires.  Key Benefits All aluminium bare conductors are used for aerial distribution lines having relatively short spans, aerial feeder and bus bars of substations.    All Aluminium Alloy Conductors (AAAC) This conductors is made from aluminium - magnesium - silicon alloy of high electrical conductivity containing enough magnesium silicide to give it better mechanical properties after treatment. These conductors are generally made out of aluminium alloy 6201. AAAc CONDUCTOR has a better corrosion resistance and better strength to weight ratio and improved electrical conductivity than ACSR CONDUCTORS on equal diameterbasis.     AAC conductors is made from aluminium - magnesium - silicon alloy of high electrical conductivity containing magnesium (0.6-0.9%)& silicon (0.5-0.9%) to give it better mechanical properties after treatment. AAC conductors are generally made out of aluminium alloy 6201 (minimum conductivity is 54%). AAAc CONDUCTOR has a better corrosion resistance and better strength to weigh tratio and improved electrical conductivity than ACSR CONDUCTORS on equal diameter basis.  Key Benefits High tensile strengths as compared to AAc conductors. Higher conductivity as compared to ACSR conductors. Better corrosion resistance than ACSR conductor.
