Featured Eaton Power System:
Distribution Arresters: Polymer-Housed Surge Protection for Overhead Lines
Eaton offers a full-range of polymer housed surge arresters for low-voltage, normal-duty, heavy-duty, and heavy-duty riser pole applications.
Elbow Arresters: DirectConnect Overvoltage Protection for Underground Systems
Eaton’s Premolded rubber elbows provide overvoltage system protection. The design of the DirectConnect elbow arrester saves you money on direct material costs and reduces overall labor expenses.
IEEE Deadbreak Connectors: 200 kV BIL System for Underground Distribution
Eaton offers a complete 200 kV BIL deadbreak connector system including T-bodies, insulating plugs, junction, caps, reducing tap plugs and transformer bushings. Combining the 200 kV BIL deadbreak system with Cooper Power Systems 200 kV nameplate rated transformer means no longer sacrificing system protection due to limited component ratings.
200A Loadbreak Connectors: Submersible Elbow Terminations for 15, 25, and 35 kV
Eaton’s 200 A 15, 25, and 35 kV Loadbreak Elbow Connectors and Accessories are submersible, fully-shielded and insulated plug-in terminations, ideal for connecting underground cable to transformers, switchgear, sectionalizing cabinets and junctions. These connectors are molded using high-quality, peroxide-cured EPDM insulation for reliable field performance.
Cooper Power SecTER Sectionalizing Terminals for Single and Three-Phase Distribution
Eaton’s Cooper Power™ series versatile single and three-phase SecTER™ sectionalizing terminals are designed as cable sectionalizing centers, or as permanent or temporary transformer pad covers. The new designs now accommodate both traditional and Eaton’s Cooper Power series Cleer™ connector to fit all your single-and three-phase sectionalizing needs
Current-Limiting Fuses: Overhead, Underground, Enclosure-Mounted, and Vaulted Applications
Eaton offers the largest, most economical selection of surge arrester and fusing equipment for overhead and underground usage. When it comes to fusing equipment, Eaton provides solutions for overhead, enclosure-mounted, underground, and vaulted applications.
Cooper Power Fuse Links and Kearney Fuse Links: Distribution Overcurrent Protection
Eaton’s Cooper Power™ series fuse links can be applied to a variety of applications requiring overcurrent protection of distribution systems and equipment. When properly coordinated with other overcurrent protective devices, sectionalizing to isolate faulted feeder branches or equipment can be accomplished. Kearney fuse links are available in a variety of types offering a wide selection of operating characteristics.
Power Fuses: CMU Medium Voltage and ELG / JOE E-Rated Current-Limiting Fuses
For system and asset protection – Eaton’s clip/hinge mount fuses include the CMU Medium Voltage Power Fuse as well as the ELG and JOE E-Rated Current-Limiting Power Fuses. Other power fuses include under-oil versions designed to operate in fluid-filled distribution apparatus.
UltraSIL Type L Open Distribution Cutout: 15.5 kV and 27 kV Polymer or Porcelain
Type L cutouts are available in both polymer and porcelain designs, which provide reliable overcurrent protection for primary distribution circuits. Overcurrent protection safeguards an electric system from excessive currents produced by abnormal conditions such as faults, line or equipment overloads, or equipment failures and are available in 15.5 kV and 27 kV voltage ratings 100 A or 200 A fuse holder or with a 300 A disconnect blade.
UltraSIL Type LB Loadbreak Distribution Cutout for Primary Circuit Protection
Eaton Cooper Power series UltraSIL polymer-insulated interchangeable cutouts are now available in a loadbreak version. The UltraSIL polymer-insulated cutout incorporates an industry recognized silicone rubber insulating material with superior hydrophobic qualities and offers the loadbreak Type LB cutouts in both polymer and porcelain designs, providing reliable overcurrent protection for primary distribution circuits.
Frequently Asked Questions about Eaton Power Systems
What Eaton products does Rexel Utility stock for Canadian utilities?
Rexel Utility stocks Eaton’s distribution-class portfolio in Canada, including Cooper Power series surge arresters, IEEE deadbreak and 200A loadbreak connectors, current-limiting fuses, fuse links, power fuses, sectionalizing terminals, and UltraSIL Type L and Type LB cutouts. Most items ship from our Surrey, Edmonton, or Newmarket distribution centers.
What is the difference between IEEE deadbreak and loadbreak connectors?
Deadbreak connectors are designed to be connected and disconnected only when the circuit is de-energized — Eaton’s 200 kV BIL deadbreak system handles T-bodies, junctions, and reducing tap plugs. Loadbreak connectors, like Eaton’s 200A 15, 25, and 35 kV elbow connectors, can be operated under load using a hot stick on energized underground systems.
Are Cooper Power fuse links available in Canada?
Yes. Rexel Utility carries Cooper Power and Kearney fuse links for distribution overcurrent protection in our Canadian inventory. They’re applied across feeder branches, transformers, and primary distribution equipment, and are coordinated with other overcurrent devices to isolate faults. Most types ship same-week from Surrey, Edmonton, or Newmarket.
What voltage ratings do Eaton UltraSIL distribution cutouts come in?
Eaton’s UltraSIL polymer-insulated cutouts come in 15.5 kV and 27 kV ratings, with 100A or 200A fuse holders or 300A disconnect blades. Both Type L (open) and Type LB (loadbreak) versions are available in polymer or porcelain. The polymer designs use silicone rubber with hydrophobic properties for outdoor reliability.
What surge arresters does Eaton offer for distribution lines?
Eaton offers a full range of polymer-housed surge arresters across low-voltage, normal-duty, heavy-duty, and heavy-duty riser pole applications. The DirectConnect elbow arrester provides overvoltage protection on underground systems and reduces direct material costs versus traditional designs. Rexel Utility stocks these for Canadian utility distribution and supports specifying through regional technical specialists.
How does Rexel Utility support Eaton specification and ordering in Canada?
Rexel Utility maintains regional sales coverage in Surrey, Edmonton, Calgary, Ontario, and Quebec, with distribution centers in Surrey, Edmonton, and Newmarket. Technical specialists support spec-level questions on Eaton and Cooper Power products, and most distribution-class items can be packaged into broader utility material orders alongside Trydor custom assemblies and other suppliers.
