Single-phase reclosers Reclosers sense and interrupt fault currents and automatically Single-phase reclosers, as shown in Figure 1 and 2, are used to restore service after momentary outage. protect single-phase lines such as branches or taps of a three-phase The automatic circuit recloser is essentially a self-contained device feeder. They can also be used on three-phase circuits where the load with the necessary intelligence to sense overcurrents to time and is predominantly single-phase. Thus, when a permanent phase-to- interrupt fault currents and to re-energize the line by reclosing ground fault occurs, one phase can be locked-out while service is automatically. If a fault is permanent, the recloser locks open after maintained to the remaining two-thirds of the system. a preset number of operations (usually three or four), isolating the faulted section from the main part of the system. Three-phase reclosers Two types of three-phase reclosers are available: Temporary faults • Single-Phase
