Medium Voltage Phasing Comparator
The MV Phasing Comparator is used to verify phase matching and phase rotation on energized medium-voltage networks before making a connection, closing a breaker, or transferring load. It provides a clear indication when two points are either in-phase (safe to connect) or out-of-phase (hazardous) — helping prevent equipment damage, flashover, and backfeed incidents during switching.
