AQ-103LV Arc Flash Protection Relay

The AQ-103LV arc flash protection relay is a state-of-the-art microprocessor-based device engineered to detect and mitigate the risks associated with arc flash incidents. By rapidly identifying the onset of an arc fault, it triggers a circuit breaker trip, effectively isolating the faulty circuit and minimizing potential damage to equipment and personnel.

  • Advanced and accurate Arc Flash Detection
  • Self-supervision of internal components and external connections
  • Flexible Integration with AQ-110PLV and AQ-110FLV systems
  • Providing targeted protection independently in light-only systems
  • Supporting RS-485 and Modbus protocols
  • Equipped with 14 arc sensor channels & optional one fiber optic sensor channel
