ARC SUPPRESSION TECHNOLOGIES

Arc Suppression Technologies has created products and patents that solve electrical problems that have existed since electricity was commercialized by Edison, Tesla, and Westinghouse in the 1870's. Problems that cost $tens-of-billions annually from electrical contact failures, arc-faults, and arc-flash. Today, our products are solving these problems, offering game-changing competitive advantages across a wide variety of markets... We believe the "C.C. Bates equations" have been so uncritically accepted because power contact arcing is not well understood. For instance, a transient suppressor doesn't differentiate between arcs initiated during contact make and arcs initiated during break. As current increases, the ever larger capacitor required by the "C.C. Bates equations" would absorb energy from the break-arc, which in turn fuel damaging make-bounce-arcs (acting like an arc welder). Another example is the common belief that the voltage spike that occurs after the arc plasma has..
