Regenerative electricity generation – reliable switching, protection and automation.

Eaton's Moeller Business is ideally placed for renewable energies as a globally operating and leading manufacturer of components and systems for energy distribution and automation. Many low-voltage device products such as circuit-breakers, contactors or control circuit devices, extending right up automation technology are used for various applications in wind power, photovoltaic or biogas systems.

Wind turbine generators
In many wind turbine generators (WTG) for example, the modular control XC-100-FC with its fibre-optic fieldbus interface, controls the collision avoidance and signalling beacons, and monitors the emergency power supply systems. Contactors with vacuum technology and circuit-breakers reliably switch the wind turbine generators on the grid.

Biogas plants
The compact control easyControl provides all operating data for process visualisation in biogas plants. Circuit-breakers NZM protect combined (cogeneration) heat and power plants (CHP) against overloads and short circuits. Motor starters controlled via SmartWire-Darwin drastically reduce both the wiring and mounting effort.

Photovoltaic systems
A wide range of DC switchgear for applications up to 1 kV is available for photovoltaic systems or standby battery applications. Eaton's Moeller Business is offering perfect product solutions from DC fuse switch-disconnectors, DC switch-disconnectors and DC circuit-breakers with IP20 protection or enclosed with IP65 protection, as well as DC compact circuit-breakers up to 1400 A.
