Testing & Repair
As one of the proud founding members of the Professional Electrical Apparatus Reconditioning League (PEARL), RG Industries assures you that the obsolete and out of production products we sell are re-qualified, inspected and tested. With RG Industries' own "Quality Assurance Program" actively in place, we guarantee that our products are of the best quality and safest in our industry. When you buy recycled, re-qualified, inspected and tested products, you are not only buying safe products, but you are also helping to safeguard the environment for future generations.
All of RG Industries re-qualified circuit breakers have been inspected and tested for conformance within recognized industry standards and/or specifications. A typical thermal magnetic molded case circuit breaker undergoes up to 25 various re-qualification procedures, including but not limited to the following:
- Visual & Mechanical Inspection
- Contact & Insulation Testing
- Overcurrent Trip Testing
- Internal & External Auxillary Device Testing
- Connector & Operation Testing
- Final Re-Inspection & Certification
RG Industries also has PEARL/AVO certified technicians on staff, with certificates for both low voltage and medium voltage circuit breaker maintenance as well as Molded-case, Insulated-case circuit breaker and air breaker maintenance. All of our testing is done in house, which in most cases allows us to have your product ready for shipment that day.
RG Industries also offers a product identification program for local, national and international customers. If you are uncertain about your technical specifications, call us and we will help you get exactly what you need.
In addition, RG Industries prides itself on having the best testing equipment on hand to ensure that you, the customer, get the best out of your product. To name a few:
Phenix HC-30
Tests up to 20,000 continuous amperage power
Primary Injection (this gives you precise calibration)
Can test breakers with 240/480/600v
Separately tests:
- Real time amperage
- Long time delay
- Short time delay
- Instantaneous delay
- And ground fault (if present)

- No cracks or visible defacement of the frame
- Tests the resistance between phases
DLRO
- Tests the contact resistance of each phase
- Runs from Line to Load
- Ensures the contacts do not have any pivots or melting damage
Remember, only circuit breakers tested to RG Industries In-House PEARL Quality Assurance Program provide a safe, tested, and reliable circuit protection device; and unlike many of our competitors is backed by $15 million in product liability insurance. Don't take risks with circuit breakers that cannot be verified as having passed re-qualification. Ask for a test certificate!
and electrical protection product industry on your team.
