Compared to contactor solutions, Soft Starters, also referred to as soft starting devices, offer considerable advantages.

The Soft Starter continuously controls the three-phase motor’s voltage supply during start-up. The motor is adjusted to the machine’s load behavior that allow electric motors and mechanical operating equipment to accelerate in a gentle manner.

Battery energy storage systems (BESS) in combination with grid-tie inverters are increasingly used as a backup to stabilize renewable energy sources. Photo voltaic arrays outputs differ greatly from the morning to midday for instance. In cases of varying winds the output from wind farms also vary.

EP Normand offers grid-tie inverters and related equipment on a utility scale.
Complete PCS (Power Conversion Systems) are supplied in numerous applications, but notably in the renewable energy business.
