9 UFES ABB has developed an Ultra Fast Earthing Switch, which opens the possibility for new arc protection concepts for MV Switchgear systems. It is an innovative combination of the ABB technologies vacuum interrupter and Is-Limiter March 15, 2018

10 UFES Arc Faults Internal Arc faults on the system Use GRP and steel as enclosure material Patented double layer design Combines benefits of steel and concrete into one solution Main Features: Fully type tested design, including Internal arc fault Lightweight Corrosion resistance Thermal insulated enclosure Smart grid compatibility Example of Internal Arc fault The reliable March 15, 2018 Slide 10

11 UFES Operation UFES operating description UFES components A device as small as a 22kv insulator offers enhanced protection for your switchgear by minimizing of all three effects The UFES arc protection system channels the uncontrolled release of energy by the arc into a solid metal, 3 phase connection to earth potential Triggered by electronic device using light and current As this short-circuit is of considerably lower impedance than the fault, the fault current commutates from the arc to the defined short-circuit created by the Primary Switching Element, causing the arc fault voltage to break down and the arc to be extinguished almost immediately. The resulting controlled flow of earth fault current is then finally shut down by the feeder circuit-breaker. The internal arc will be extinguished within an operating time of < 4ms after detection of the fault March 15, 2018 Slide 11

12 UFES Comparison Other Protection devises Conventional Protection Device Detection by standby relay clearing of arc fault by upstream circuit breaker Arc fault duration ms Dramatic consequences possible Fire/Explosion hazard, heavy injuries of personnel UFES Operating times UFES system Ultra-fast extinction of the internal arc by activating the UFES primary element Final clearing of fault current by upstream circuit breaker Ar fault duration < 4ms NO consequence to be expected prevention of any thermal damage and reduction of pressure rise Fast-acting relay with supplementary equipment Fast protection by special protection relay clearing of arc fault by upstream breaker Arc fault duration typical ms Limited consequences for equipment and switchgear (depending on design) March 15, 2018 Slide 12

13 UFES Current and Energy Short-circuit current during Arc fault Energy curve during internal Arc March 15, 2018 Slide 13

14 UFES Pressure Rise Effect of an internal arc fault Pressure curve Real life example of what pressure rise does to a S/S March 15, 2018 Slide 14

15 UFES Comparison of busbar faults Busbar compartment after internal arc fault Without active protection ( 50ka/100ms) Busbar compartment after internal arc fault with active protection by UFES system March 15, 2018 Slide 15

16 UFES Construction UFES devise Installation options March 15, 2018 Slide 16

17 UFES Typical Installation with 2 x Incomers and 1 x Bussection The E-House is a switching substation utilizing one of the following designs; Containerized Solution Modularized Design Single Large Structures Skid Mounted Modules Mobile Substation In the past E-Houses had been used mainly in traditional market segments such as O&G, mining and utilities. The approach in these segments is driven by detailed and sometimes demanding specifications. New and fast developing market segments like renewables, datacenters, ship to shore, temp power, infrastructure etc, require solutions that are fast to deliver, standardized and/or modularized.

19 Reyrolle LM- Retrofit ABB experience and reasons for retrofitting ABB Background in Reyrolle retrofits Reyrolle SA was bought by ABB in 2002 and we kept the knowledge and experience on Reyrolle Switchgear in ABB We have existing contracts in place and done over 2000 retrofits so far, this includes CoCT, London underground, Saudi Arabia, Japan Elect. et Fully Type tested design, including internal arc fault ratings Proven design with added safety features All existing Reyrolle design drawings are still available in ABB Keep strategic spares for legacy product Reasons for retrofitting Unsafe Switchgear on the system, old, unreliable, Oil filled Legacy product with limited to no spares availability Much cheaper to upgrade and retrofit than replacing the Switchgear Down-time to retrofit is much less than replacing No MV cable work necessary Budget can be done and planned before a fault takes away the complete substation March 15, 2018 Slide 19
