Schneider Electric, a global leader in energy management and automation, has launched the MasterPacT MTZ Active, a groundbreaking circuit breaker setting new standards in safety, efficiency, and sustainability while ensuring business continuity. MasterPacT MTZ Active addresses today's challenges of round-the-clock uptime demands, rising energy costs, and an urgent need for sustainable practices in a world increasingly powered by electricity and digitisation.

"MasterPacT MTZ Active empowers operators with real-time visualisation and monitoring of energy consumption," said Nikhil Pathak, Vice President of Power Products and Digital Energy for Schneider Electric, Greater India. "This live insight allows businesses to optimise energy management, reduce consumption, and minimise waste, supporting both continuity and reliability."

With an established legacy of over 35 years in circuit breaker innovation, Schneider Electric's latest addition is designed to enhance energy efficiency without sacrificing functionality or safety. In sectors such as healthcare, food & beverage, life sciences, data centres, and commercial buildings, MasterPacT MTZ Active facilitates energy management in increasingly complex and distributed power networks. The circuit breaker's electrical control unit enables facility managers to monitor and measure power usage in real time, advancing efficiency and reliability.

Advancing Safety and Sustainability 

MasterPacT MTZ Active offers enhanced safety with features such as an embedded Energy Reduction Maintenance Setting (ERMS) that protects maintenance personnel from arc flash hazards. A pioneering QR code solution streamlines troubleshooting for circuit breaker trips by enabling operators to scan for immediate guidance on the specific cause, minimising manual search time.

 Designed with circularity in mind, MasterPacT MTZ Active can be refurbished by Schneider Electric to extend its life and reduce waste, supporting sustainability goals.
