Abstract
A vented exhaust system for an electrical cabinet housing high voltage equipment. Very short-time explosions can occur within the electrical cabinet that are the result of a short circuit of the equipment housed within. The vented exhaust system provides for a way to safely release the pressure and hot gasses that can result from the short circuit so that the cabinet does not explode.
