History, Philosophy and Mission Statement

Circuit Breaker Test Equipment by ZENSOL, The Circuit Breaker and Recloser Testing Specialist!!


Circuit Breaker Test Equipment is our main focus and specialty. Founded in June 1990, Zensol Automation Inc. is, in the beginning, strictly devoted to research and development of solutions for the electrical energy industry. Since then, under the leadership of its president, Fouad Brikci, Ph.D., and in cooperation with the leaders of the electrical industry, such as Hydro-Québec, ALSTOM, etc., ZENSOL has developed several circuit breaker test equipment products, particularly for circuit breakers from the lowest to the highest voltage (800 kV), including:

the CBA-32P, a software-driven circuit breaker analyzer;
the SIM-CB6, a circuit breaker simulator integrating an actuator reproducing the actual displacement of any type of breaker;
the GEN, a software-driven recloser analyzer.
Zensol still offers R&D services, in addition to breaker testing and also training on its products.
Zensol's customers, including Hydro-Québec, ABB, CFE, ALSTOM, and AMEREN are located in more than 20 countries worldwide. (Since June 1999, Zensol is certified ISO 9001) Since June 2003, Zensol successfully transferred to ISO 9001:2000.

Zensol's name is from Zen, the philosophy of "doing better" and from sol, for solution; the philosophy of Zensol is to create continuously innovative and performing solutions for the electrical industry.

PHILOSOPHY OF ZENSOL AUTOMATION INC. PRODUCTS


All our instruments are developed with the same principle: they are controlled by our software running in portable computers.

By this, we mean: «do not look for a liquid crystal screen on our instruments, or an integrated keyboard, or even an integrated printer. You will not find any. Instead, you may use the most powerful computers, the most accurate printers, the fastest modems, etc., to process and analyze instantly, in the field, all the results of your timing measurements.»

Our solution takes advantage of the very rapid advance of worldwide technology by integrating the biggest names in the industry, such as Microsoft, Compaq, etc.

We have been working under this principle for more than 10 years now, and we are the first to have introduced it into very noisy environments such as high-voltage stations at 800 kV. You can believe us when we state that our software, CBA Win©, is the most powerful.

l on the market at the moment and that they integrate all the needs and demands of circuit breaker specialists.
