SE-145 SERIES
Ground-Fault Ground-Check Monitor
Description
The SE-145 is a three-channel, microprocessor-based,
combination ground-wire monitor and ground-fault relay for
resistance-grounded or solidly grounded systems. It continuously
monitors the integrity of the ground wire to protect portable
equipment from hazardous voltages caused by ground faults. The
SE-145 is designed for use on three-way splitter box applications.
