Chance Cutout Rating White Paper

Over a year ago Chance introduced their new 200-amp cutout. Prior to this, all 200-amp cutouts from all manufactures have been restricted to line-to-ground voltages for their maximum design ratings.

What does this mean?

  • If a customer wanted a fully rated 15kV, 200-amp cutout, he would have to order a 27kV, 200-amp cutout.
  • Old 200 amp cutouts used a term called slant rating. (line-to-ground voltage)
  • New 200-amp cutouts use a term called fully rated. (line-to-line voltage)
  • Customers were paying extra costs using a larger rating for a 15kV system.

Benefits of new Chance cutout.

  • Lower customer inventory and initially cost.
  • All 15kV and 27kV 200-amp cutouts are now fully rated. (line-to-line voltage)
