Increasingly complex medium voltage The ekor.rpa series 020 self-powered

distribution networks and with a
greater presence of players in the
system: photovoltaic plants, energy
storage plants, electric vehicle charging
facilities, etc. demand more developed
protective equipment with more
features.
7
protection units have been designed
1
to cover these needs, also meeting
6
the requirements of the national
and international standards and
recommendations. 2 4

Depending on the model, the
ekor.rpa series 020 units can also
incorporate current directionality, as
well as metering functions. 3
