Live Tank Circuit Breaker LTB E 72.5 - 420 kV

World’s most versatile transmission breaker

LTB E is suitable for breaking currents up to 50 kA, fast interruption (2 cycles) for maximum power system stability. It is configurable for all applications and environments.

The installation and commissioning is fast and simple, and there is no need for site adjustments. It is proven in extreme locations including deserts, the tropics and cold climates - withstanding natural disasters from hurricanes to major earthquakes. 

LTB E is designed and type tested in accordance with international standards IEC, ANSI and others. Also, tested to national standards (GOST, DL, and DIN).

Hitachi Energy also provide the Disconnecting Circuit Breaker where the disconnecting function is integrated into the breaker.

Applications
