Reconditioned Circuit Breakers
The BR170 Circuit Breaker has been reconditioned per MIDWEST's rigorous service procedures based on 30 years experience.
The BR170 circuit breaker has been maintained and refurbished per industry standards and per MIDWEST's Quality Control Program (QCP).
The services include applicable internal and external procedures, repairs, and replacement of deficient components.
In addition to standard electrical tests, MIDWEST also performs live function tests on the BR170.
These services far exceed the routine reconditioning of the BR170 performed by many circuit breaker vendors and resellers.
MIDWEST certifies the BR170 circuit breaker has passed our QCP before shipping.
New Surplus Circuit Breakers
A "New Surplus" Circuit Breaker is a circuit breaker that has never been installed, but is not "New from the Factory" or "New from the Manufacturer or Distributor" of the BR170 circuit breaker.
It may be referred to as New in the Box, New Surplus, Never Installed, Never Energized, or other such term that avoids the label "New from the Manufacturer."
A New Surplus BR170 circuit breaker should not be considered new from the manufacturer or manufacturer's Distributor.
Surplus and New Surplus BR170 circuit breakers must pass MIDWEST's (QCP) Quality Control Program.
Purchasing Used and Reconditioned Circuit Breakers
Used vs. New Circuit Breakers
MIDWEST has tested, maintained, and reconditioned electrical switchgear, including circuit breakers, for over 30 years.
When asked if one should purchase a used or reconditioned circuit breaker instead of a new breaker, MIDWEST recommends purchasing the new breaker.
The availability of used circuit breakers in the market place does not suggest a used breaker is better than a new breaker.
Equipment has a reliable life expectancy and there is an expectation that new equipment has an improved design.
We know that select older equipment may be more reliable in some cases because the older equipment was overbuilt and therefore suffers an abusive environment possibly better than some newer equipment.
But this statement does not permit a blanket statement suggesting used and reconditioned breakers are better than new breakers.
Who purchases used and reconditioned circuit breakers
The marketplace for used, obsolete, reconditioned, surplus, remanufactured, etc. circuit breakers exists because of several critical challenges to the market for new equipment.
The most critical challenge is the availability.
Many breakers are no longer available new.
Many other breakers are not in stock and may have a delivery time of weeks.
If a manufacturing facility operates using a "just in time supply chain," they require immediate availability.
The only choice may be a used or reconditioned circuit breaker.
How do you know the circuit breaker is reliable
When purchasing a used or reconditioned circuit breaker it is extremely important to purchase it from a company that reconditions and completely tests the circuit breaker.
There are standard specifications for testing circuit breakers.
But MIDWEST goes far beyond the industry standard.
Because of our long history of servicing and selling new and used switchgear MIDWEST has additional special load, voltage and function tests that assure the reliability of used, reconditioned, refurbished circuit breakers.
MIDWEST’s Quality Control Program (QCP) is your quality assurance.
MIDWEST must express caution because many used equipment suppliers, internet auction sites, and resellers do no more than clean the outside of the circuit breakers.
MIDWEST recommends purchasing only from an experienced breaker service company that has an exceptional Quality Control Program.
