CBS ArcSafe Launches Remote Racking System for Toshiba VY Breakers

Denton, Texas – September 15, 2026 -- CBS ArcSafe has introduced the RRS-3 VY Toshiba, a remote racking system that lets technicians operate Toshiba VY-30M25A circuit breakers from up to 300 feet away, keeping crews outside the arc flash boundary.
