A smarter way to manage intermittent faults and restore power.

Used to replace LV fuses, VisNet Reclose² manages transient faults and restores supply automatically, without the need for a substation visit.

Making fault restoration automatic

SafeON technology checks whether a fault is temporary or permanent after a power loss. If it's temporary, VisNet Reclose² restores power automatically; if it's permanent, it locks out the system to keep the network safe.

Getting more from your VisNet Hub

Pair VisNet Reclose² with a VisNet Hub and use insights from the Proactive Reliability App to target device locations. This can reduce customer outages and duration by 50% compared with fitting after the first non-damage fault, saving a further 3% CMLs in a typical year when applied to the worst 10% of LV circuits.

Automatic fault management and reliable power restoration for LV networks

VisNet Reclose² is a fault management device for low voltage networks, replacing LV fuses with automatic multi-shot trip and close capabilities. It manages transient faults and overloads, restoring supply automatically without the need for manual intervention or a substation visit. Backed by patented thyristor technology, it resolves up to 80% of intermittent faults on the first attempt.

The device detects pre-fault activity and locates faults, using SafeON fault detection and current limiting technology to restore supplies safely. It's back-up fuse protected, factory programmed to suit different customer requirements, and installs as a simple retrofit with no hidden start-up costs. Network analysis and diagnostics are available through the web application, helping teams manage a fleet of units from a single dashboard. This supports more effective asset management, increasing reliability, efficiency and safety at lower cost.

  • Automatic supply restoration
    Restores supply after a transient fault with no need for manual intervention, using arc-less switching to reduce network damage and maintenance costs.

  • SafeON fault detection
    Checks whether a fault is temporary or permanent, restoring power safely or locking out the system to protect the network.

  • Simple retrofit installation
    Replaces LV fuses with no hidden start-up costs, offering strong cost/benefit justification and payback in under 2 years.
