Shorting Caps
Shorting Caps
Long cable runs and where large conductors are used will maintain a charge even after the power to the circuit has been cut. Human contact with a phase conductor in such incidents may result in injury to personnel. Patton & Cooke shorting caps, in conjunction with operating procedures, provide a means to safely discharge capacitive load from a cable.
