Abstract :
The Subserf system was specifically designed with the safety and problems of the utility engineer and lineman in mind. It is, we believe, the first real attempt to provide standardization of components for submersible underground systems. No longer need the lineman be concermed with complicated circuitry or lack of means to properly handle shielded systems. Purchase and store functions are simplified through a minimum number of standardized plug-in components. Utility design engineers have at their disposal a complete line of coordinated components to simplify their application problems. Subserf systems are available today to serve the needs of residential subdivisions. The Subserf philosophy is rapidly being expanded to include main line switching, both single and 3-phase, and automatic sectionalizing devices necessary to serve the growing trend to complete underground systems.
