Ohmic Voltage Sensing system upgrade kit

Metal-clad and metal-enclosed switchgear

Upgrade to Ohmic voltage sensing

By utilizing resistive voltage dividers (RVDs) in place of
conventional VTs, Eaton has developed a modern approach
to safely mitigate primary switching transients and
ferroresonance problems for applications requiring VTs.
Eaton’s Engineering Services & Systems can upgrade
your existing system from VTs to Ohmic voltage sensors
across all medium-voltage classes.

Upgrade your existing Features and benefits Technical specifications • Benefits

equipment
• Available for Eaton’s metal-
clad, metal-enclosed and front
accessible medium-voltage
switchgear at 5, 15, 27, and
38 kV arc and non arc-
resistant assemblies
• Kit converts VT drawer
compartment to accept
OVS system sensors
• Tested to IEEE C37.20.2:2015
® • Voltage amplifier works with
Annex D
• Added to UL file for 5/15 kV
arc-resistant and non-arc-
resistant switchgear
• No fuses required, eliminating
the need for spare parts
control power from 24-230
VAC or VDC
• Phase angle accuracy of better
than 0.1% over frequency of
2 kHz
• Voltage system accuracy
better than 1%
• Eliminates primary switching
transients and resonance
problems

for VT compartments
• Improves operational
efficiency
To determine the appropriate OVS
upgrade kit please provide a picture
of the switchgear name plate or the
GO number. The structure number
and breaker cubicle numbers should
also be sent.
