T&B(TnB), Safety & Contamination

As with any electrical system, the wind and solar power generation infrastructure must be equipped to ensure safe operation and avoid product contamination. The right products and controls provide the ability to:


• Avoid burns and electrical shock
• Protect against explosions and fire
• Prevent premature product wear
• Avert equipment failure
• Reduce costly downtime


Arc flash hazards are a prominent concern in renewable power generation systems. All electrical terminations, lugs, connectors and other devices
must protect against electrical shock and arc flashes.
Vapors and other agents with deteriorating effects on conductors or equipment should not be in close proximity. Contamination of this nature is timeconsuming
and expensive to clean.


You’ll find a thorough assortment of electrical system protection products from Thomas & Betts, including solid-dielectric switchgear that uses no gas or
oil, heat-shrink tubing to insulate exposed conductors and wiring and connectors with fault indicators.

 

 

T&B(TnB), Total Project Cost Reduction

Controlling the cost per watt of solar photovoltaic capacity and the cost per kilowatt-hour of wind energy are primary goals in renewable power generation.
Numerous factors influence total project cost effectiveness, including:


• Manufacturing process controls
• Factory Acceptance Testing (FAT)
• Safety controls
• Product distribution quality


Additionally, a renewable project likely won’t get off the ground unless it is underwritten. Choosing a Tier 1 supplier that is LEAN and ISO certified, with
a proven record of reliability, quality and service, increases the probability of winning funding. Thomas & Betts is proud to be a Tier 1 supplier of electrical systems and equipment. With over a century of experience, we work hard to keep your project costs low while meeting the expectations of product quality and reliability. Ongoing investment in research and development allows Thomas & Betts to continually assist customers in satisfying the financial and performance requirements of their project portfolio, from concept to installation and operation.

 

 

T&B(TnB), Continuous Operation & Sustainability

Photovoltaic and wind power outputs are naturally constrained by interruptions in sunlight and wind availability. Proper engineering and product support are critical in keeping the systems operating at peak performance. In order
to satisfy the requirements of the Power Purchase Agreements (PPA), renewable power facilities must avoid downtime by applying processes
and technology that:


• Mitigate against meteorological forces
• Assist in accurate product selection
• Avoid inferior quality products

• Prevent poor installations


Due to the remote nature of wind and solar farms, outages can be particularly costly. Long response times to critical conditions or failures intensify the costs. Wind turbine heights add to that cost if the problem is within the tower column or in the nacelle.

 

Downtime prevention is the key. Thomas & Betts has the quality products, training, services and support needed to prevent outages and ensure
sustained, low-maintenance solar and wind power operation.

 

 

T&B(TnB), Grounding & Bonding

Grounding and bonding are critical to any power eneration facility, particularly wind turbines and solar farms, due to their exposure to lightning strikes.
Choosing the right product is necessary to:


• Ensure employee safety
• Prevent costly job interruptions
• Ensure timely completion of the installation and project
• Meet IEEE requirements with UL® and CSA application standards
• Provide electrical continuity and reliability


Power generation facilities must ensure that their grounding and bonding meet the specified code requirements. With the right electrical product selection, you can reduce the number of conductors and terminations required.


Thomas & Betts provides an extensive range of products and sizes to fit all grounding and bonding needs, including compression, mechanical and exothermic products for above-ground and direct-burial grounding applications. We also deliver comprehensive, onsite grounding and bonding training in addition to services to ensure that your installation continues to operate smoothly and safely.

 

 

T&B(TnB), Power Quality, Efficiency & Reliability

Reliability, efficiency and quality are primary goals of all energy generation utilities. Renewable power facilities depend on unique, advanced components that accommodate very specific tolerances and provide predictable, reliable performance and control. These innovative electrical systems and tools are needed to:


• Adapt to fluctuating wind and solar supply
• Avoid damage from power quality disturbances
• Eliminate underperformance
• Minimize system losses and increase power output


Thomas & Betts products are designed for energy efficiency and reliability. We offer monitoring and control solutions such as fault detection and overcurrent protection to enhance energy efficiency and system reliability. We use the right quality of raw materials to reduce voltage drops, increase usable power and boost the stakeholders’ ROI. Our adherence to ISO and industry standards ensures consistent quality and safety in our products. Thomas & Betts
incorporates the latest technological advancements to meet the changing needs of our customers.

 

 

T&B(TnB), Corrosion & Harsh Environment Protection

Solar and wind farms are, by their nature, continually exposed to the elements. Environmental risks to renewable power generation infrastructure include:


• High moisture and high winds
• Lightning
• Salt spray, sand and dust
• Ice accumulations


Corrosion caused by these factors is among the greatest threats to safe and reliable operations. Uncontrolled dew point or moisture can cause corrosion and rust, and the pairing of dissimilar metals enhances the corrosive atmosphere. Extreme weather conditions should not compromise performance sustainability. With proper planning and selection, your electrical systems and devices will survive the elements. For example, you can reduce the occurrence of dissimilar metals to avoid corrosion, and protect exposed wiring and conductors by insulating with heat-shrink. Thomas & Betts offers these solutions and others to protect against challenging environments. Our extensive
electrical product suite is designed, manufactured and tested to meet all NEMA, UL®, NEC®, IEEE and other specified code requirements. National Electrical Code and NEC are registered trademarks of the National Fire Protection Association, Inc.

 

 

T&B(TnB), Extreme Temperature Protection

Wind and solar power generation facilities may be subject to extreme temperatures and temperature swings. Electrical systems in these environments
must be robust enough to withstand the elements and ensure continuous delivery of quality power. Otherwise, the owner/operator will face degraded
operational capacity and the risk of costly downtime. For example:


• Hotter temperatures reduce the power output of photovoltaic modules
• Prolonged heat causes materials to age more rapidly
• Frost heave occurs when materials contract and expand due to ground frost
• Hail can cause physical damage to the systems


To help manage renewable power electrical systems installed in freezing or high-heat climates, Thomas & Betts offers a broad array of electrical
products that can withstand or insulate against extreme temperatures. Durable materials, insulated products, resilient fasteners, heating and cooling
elements and temperature controls are among the solutions available.

 

 

T&B(TnB), Space Savings

Adapting electrical devices and systems to fit in small or confined spaces requires innovative technology. Thomas & Betts delivers space-saving
solutions designed to:


• Pack more power into a smaller footprint
• Ensure sufficient operating clearance
• Allow retrofits without altering the surrounding infrastructure
• Accommodate load growth within the existing available space
• Reduce construction and maintenance costs
• Provide engineering and 3D CAD for equipment placement


Tall, narrow wind towers present unique challenges. Smaller footprint products are needed to fit the smaller space without sacrificing efficiency, reliability or safety. Wind power utilities need electrical products that can handle the
same current ratio in smaller packages, such as narrow lugs that handle the same current as a conventional lug. Switchgear, fusing and surge
arresters for wind applications also need to be engineered for confined spaces. Solar power utilities may also be subject to space constraints. In these circumstances, the racks, inverters, switchgear and other technologies that make up the solar power electrical system need to be designed to fit.

 

 

T&B(TnB), Services & Training

The renewable energy industry is extremely dynamic, making it difficult to develop in-house expertise. Wind and photovoltaic developers must
reconcile these key challenges:


• New and emerging technologies
• Evolving regulations and standards
• Workforce skills gap


Wind and solar electrical infrastructure continues to evolve as designers and engineers improve existing technologies and increase reliability, efficiency and
safety. Specialized training is often required.
