Katherine Thompson, Product Manager, recently led a high-level training session for operations management and engineers in the cable accessory department. Using 3-D models, she demonstrated what happens after termination kits are shipped, offering an in-depth look at potential field scenarios and the components that make up a termination. This hands-on experience has inspired our team to brainstorm opportunities for improvement, aiming to enhance the customer experience.

Ensuring system reliability involves selecting the right equipment. The JAMALI System and Tonga Power Limited (TPL) faced similar issues with high solar and wind penetration, which were resolved with G&W Electric’s Teros® recloser. Available globally (except in the US and Canada), the Teros recloser features integrated sensors for distribution automation, high-speed fault clearing, and enhanced reliability. “Reclosers are the global solution for expanding and modernizing distribution networks,” says John Mueller, chairman and owner of G&W Electric.
