water/wastewater
circuit protection
Challenge
A customer in the Northeast
suffered a severe loss of business
due to an indirect lightning strike
that entered their building through
the ground and significantly
compromised the data system
and numerous machine tool
control cabinets. As a result, they
experienced 11 days of downtime
and lost production in most of the
facility.
Solution
At the time of the lightning strike,
the electrical system was not
protected with surge protective
devices. Eaton’s Bussmann
business was brought in to review
the applications and recommend
the appropriate solution to mitigate
issues from transient overvoltages
and indirect lightning strikes in the
future. Bussmann incorporated
power, AC/DC control voltage
and data signal surge protective
devices to protect the system
and, as a result, the customer has
a more reliable system. Since
implementing the products, no
downtime has been caused by
transient surge related events.

The electrical distribution system of water and wastewater
facilities is subject to transient voltages from lighting and
inductive load switching. With the introduction of more
electronic equipment, the chances of a transient voltage-related
problem further intensify.
