5 >> Product description TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION WI panels are suitable for configuring single or double busbar switchgear in conjunction with indoor installation. WI switchgear units are completely metal-enclosed. The busbar compartment which accommodates fixed parts only is segregated gas-tight from the flange-mounted switching unit. The switching unit comprises the three-position switch with isolating and earthing functions and the vacuum circuitbreaker; in case of double busbar syste, there are two three-position switches with isolating and earthing functions and the vacuum circuit-breaker. The busbar compartment and the switching unit feature three-pole enclosure. Single-pole enclosure is provided in the area of the toroidalcore current transformers which are located in an easily accessible position outside of the SF 6 atmosphere. The compact design results in a very clear switchgear arrangement with low space requirement; it has the advantage that a switching unit can be mounted or removed very quickly without the busbar requiring isolation from the power supply. The panels are equipped with a low-voltage cabinet for the required measuring and protection relays or the terminal strips. The high performance of the instrument transformers installed means that not only electronic but also conventional protection relays can be deployed. Thanks to its design, this panel series permits straightforward extension of an existing switchgear on both sides, and extension from single to double busbar models. Gas-insulated double busbar switchgear Rated voltage up to 36 ; rated peak withstand current up to ; rated current up to 00 A 5

6 COMPONENTS OF THE SWITCHING UNIT The circuit-breaker in question is a vacuum circuit-breaker. The switching unit has been equipped, for its isolating and earthing functions, with a three-position switch featuring the positions: Disconnector ON (CLOSE) Disconnector earthing switch OFF (TRIP) Earthing switch ON (CLOSE) Earthing The metal-enclosed WI series switchgear is equipped with a separate earthing line running along the length of the switchgear. Wiring Wiring is effected with flexible cables (HO7V-K) in the technically required cross-sections. Corrosion Protection If desired, the indoor panels and can be provided optionally with enhanced corrosion protection. To ensure optimum switchgear protection, the environmental installation conditions, such as wind-borne sand, aggressive dust (to be defined as salt dust, coke dust, cement dust etc.), vermin (termites), increased humidity levels, aggressive atmosphere (type of chemicals and their concentration to be defined) must be specified. Installation locations The switchgear has been designed for installation in closed electrical operating facilities. Connection of cables and bars The cables are connected by means of metal-enclosed connectors. Switchgear units equipped with multiple connection tanks enable connection of up to five 300 mm 2 cables or two 10 mm 2 cables per phase, depending on the insulation rating. Alternatively, fully insulated busbar syste or SF 6 -insulated conductor bars can be used. Low voltage cabinet The secondary devices for protection relay, control, measurement, billing metering and other syste are installed in the low-voltage cabinet. The low-voltage cabinet is separated systematically from the primary part, is shock-proof and arc-resistant. It is an independent, closed low-voltage compartment with mechanical and electrical interfaces to the vertical section (screw-fastened plug-and-socket connector). The clear separation between the rack and the low-voltage cabinet is a particular advantage for the company operating the switchgear. Retrofitting spare panels and conversion or replacement of complete low-voltage cabinets (e.g. due to process changes) at a later date is also straightforward. The panel remains completely enclosed even if the low-voltage cabinet is not attached. Optional inspection ports can be integrated in the torsion-resistant door of the low-voltage cabinet, the door also being able to accommodate measuring instruments, control elements and protection relays. 6

12 CURRENT/VOLTAGE TRANSFORMERS Current transformers The current transformers are designed as toroidal-core transformers and are put onto the cable outgoing feeder areas with singlepole enclosure. The current transformers in line with the busbar consist of identical units. There, they are slipped onto the busbar areas which also feature singlepole enclosure. The capacity of the current transformers is designed in such a way that supply of conventional protective devices is also possible. A special current transformer arrangement is the "bus coupler panel within one panel width". In the double busbar top attachment tank, one core of max. mm height with an ID of 135 mm and an OD of 195 mm can be installed for each phase. The low voltage is led out via a max. 7-pole line which is SF 6 proof. Up to 3 transformers (3 cores) can be accommodated per phase and outgoing feeder. The transformers can also be exchanged subsequently. Three current transformers (3 cores) per phase can also be installed in line with the busbar, in order to measure its currents.

13 VOLTAGE TRANSFORMER The conventional solution for the inductive voltage transformer is a separate single-phase metalenclosed module which can be connected via cable connectors almost anywhere in the busbar area and on the outgoing feeder cable, and thus arranged in practically any location as required. - in the outgoing feeder area Another design comprises metal-enclosed inductive voltage transformers directly flangemounted to the outgoing feeder block, with the isolating / earthing device mounted upstream. An externally operated isolating feature prevents the voltage transformer from being endangered/put at risk during DC tests on the cable. on the busbar A separate metering panel with a set of inductive voltage transformers is provided to this effect. Taking account of the high priority of the busbar, a disconnector enables isolation of the transformer section. Both disconnector and transformer are located in separate compartments. Thus, any damage which might occur in the vicinity of the transformer does not affect the isolating area or the busbar.

14 BUSBAR MODULES Gas tank incl. installation parts Busbar Cover attachment on mounting flange with or without pressure relief. All five busbar compartments require one pressure relief device. If it is not possible to mount the device to the ends of the busbar tanks, e.g. if a tank for voltage transformer connection or a busbar earthing switch is located on the busbar end, or if the switchgear consists of over 10 panels, every fifth panel is equipped with a pressure relief device on the mounting flange Cover attachment on the stop flange of the left-hand and righthand end panel, with or without pressure relief, to connect metalenclosed voltage transformers with cable connection to the front. Gas lines incl. pressure gauges; preferably attached to the end panel. (Only once for each gas compartment.) Desiccant for 4 busbar tanks each, or for each gas compartment.

Undervoltage release, with or without time delay Blocking coil on "ON" pushbutton. Always required on coupler switch in case of bus section coupler and bus coupler, consisting of 2 panels (switchgear panel + bus riser panel) Blocking coil on "OFF" pushbutton. Always required on coupler switch in case of bus section coupler and bus coupler, consisting of 1 or 2 panel(s) (switchgear panel + bus riser panel) Mechanical lock-out with lock (for vacuum circuit-breaker and three-position switch) Counter Attachments for threeposition switch Motor-drive mechanism. In case of single busbar: 1 motor-drive mechanism each for isolating and earthing movements. In case of double busbar: 1 motor-drive mechanism for the isolating movement of busbar 1, busbar 2 and earthing movement of busbars 1+2. The vacuum circuitbreaker's ON button features a mechanical lock-out. An auxiliary switch, 2-20 contact elements each, for disconnecting and earthing movement. (Material: silver [normal], gold, silverpalladium) Interlocking solenoid. Single busbar: only in circuit-breaker panel of coupler and in bus riser panel of bus sectionalizer. Generally required in case of double busbar. If the interlocking solenoids are not installed in case of remote control (motor-drive mechanism) of the three-position switch, the local actuation is not locked. In this case, mechanical lock-outs (locks) are required on the "ON" button of the vacuum circuit-breaker and on the threeposition switch. always required optional 15

16 INTERLOCKS Actuation of the three-position switch and the continuous mechanical interlock between circuitbreaker and three-position switch are designed in such a way that the operator can proceed as usual. This means separate, completely interlocked actuation for the switching procedures Establishing isolating distance and Earthing. For the earthing procedure, which is only possible with the three-position switch in isolated position, the circuit-breaker switched off and the circuit-breaker energy-storing device pre-charged, the circuitbreaker is connected positively after the contact blades have been inserted into the earthing contacts, and protected against immediate mechanical or electrical switching OFF. Vice versa, on de-earthing, the circuit-breaker is first switched off positively before the isolating distance to the earthing contacts established. The interlocks ensure that each switching operation is always performed completely. Thus, once the switching operation has commenced, the motion cannot be reversed, if applicable, and the operating lever cannot be removed before it reaches its end position. The description only refers to the single busbar. In the case of double busbars, some of the internal interlocking functions of the panel, as well as all inter-panel interlocking functions are performed by electro-mechanical interlocks (blocking coil). The following interlocking functions are provided: - Disconnector does not switch ON while the circuit-breaker or the earthing switch are ON - None of the disconnectors switches OFF while the circuit-breaker or the earthing switch are ON - Circuit-breaker only switches ON with the disconnector in its end position - No earthing with disconnector engaged - No earthing with circuit-breaker ON - No earthing without circuit-breaker being in ready-to-operate condition - Automatic connection of circuitbreaker during earthing - Automatic disconnection of circuit-breaker during de-earthing The following has been ensured: - The operating crank cannot be removed from the disconnector or earthing switch before it has reached its end positions completely - The circuit-breaker cannot be actuated while a switching operation is being performed on the disconnector or earthing switch - The circuit-breaker cannot be switched off with the three-position switch in earthing position - All interlocks act partly mechanically and partly electrically - An operating crank can only be inserted on the disconnector or earthing switch once the insertion opening has been released via a manual interrogation system. - All interlocks also effective when the three-position switch is motor-actuated. 16

40 >> Cable connections TERMINAL TYPES AND SIZES CABLE CONNECTIONS IN OUTGOING FEEDER BLOCK The medium-voltage cables are connected to the switchgear panels via metal-enclosed inner cone-type plug-in terminations. The panels are equipped with inner cone-type appliance couplers according to EN Cable connections in outgoing feeder The manufacturer s specifications of the regarding selection and assembly of the plug-in terminations must be adhered to. This does not only apply to the selection of size, but also to all electrical rated data, in line with the switchgear s data. It is essential that all appliance couplers which are not equipped with plug-in terminations are terminated correctly using voltage-proof and fully shrouded insulating terminals/dummy plugs. To this effect, the inner cone-type cable plug-in terminations for attachment to WI require capacitive decoupling. The coupling electrodes for the capacitive voltage detection system are an integral part of the appliance couplers installed in the switchgear panel. 3-phase switchgear panels 1-phase switchgear panels 2-phase switchgear panels Inner cone acc. to EN 5011 Terminal types: size A size 2 0 A size 3 10 A (up to.5 ) size 3 (>.5 up to 10 A 52 ) size 4 00 A Single / double busbar Single cable, 3-phase, without outgoing voltage transformer x size 1 1x size 2 1x size 3 1x size 4 Size 4 with supporting structure increased in height Single cable connection Single busbar Railway traction power supply with 2 vacuum interrupter chambers per phase 1x size 3/S 1-pole L1 2-pole L1, L3

43 >> Ecological considerations A WI switchgear satisfies to a high degree ecological requirements in view of environmental protection thanks to > optimization of material and energy consumption during manufacture > compliance with all ecological requirements during its service life > the use of recyclable materials for efficient disposal at the end of its service life. Our design directives regarding environmentally compatible design specify the use of materials which are easily recyclable and can be disassembled. The metals which make up approx. 90 % of the switchgear are easily recyclable. At the end of their service life, they are recycled % in the form of homogenous materials. Plastics can also be recycled. Thermosetting i.e. non-melting plastics can be comminuted and reused as fillers in other plastic components; thermoplastic - i.e. melting - materials can be recycled in the form of homogenous material. This means that the material is conserved, melted down and used for the construction of new durable parts. To ensure efficient and environmentally compatible disassembly and assignment of materials by the responsible disposal experts, the switchgear s plastic components have been identified accordingly. Moreover, material and utilization data sheets are available to provide the customer with an overview about the materials used. Equally, the disposal company is provided with important information regarding the recycling process. Thus, the materials used for our products can be reused %. This represents a major contribution towards saving primary energy and material resources. All materials were selected and developed so that e.g. in case of fire within buildings, affected switchgear only have a minor influence on the fire load (heat development, pollutants in the emissions). Another important ecological aspect is the longevity of our products (min. 30 to years), which is an extremely long service life compared to other capital goods. Furthermore, the switchgear units have been designed so as to require little maintenance which would in turn use up energy and material, and so as to enable straightforward replacement of part components, e.g. if new controllers have been developed on the market (upgrading). In our gas-insulated switchgear WI, the majority of the switchgear panel has been sealed hermetically in an insulating inert gas (sulphur hexafluoride SF 6 which is neither reactive nor toxic). Thus, all environmental influences reducing the service life are shut out. The special characteristics of the insulating gas also enable an overall size reduction by approx. 50 percent versus switchgear designed without insulating gas with comparable technical properties. This again saves a lot of material and energy required for material production. The portion of insulating gas used for WI switchgear amounts to approx. 0.5 percent by weight. Once the switchgear s service life has elapsed, the gas is extracted completely via the disposal valve provided serially in each gas-filled, cladded compartment, and then recycled. The gas suppliers have developed an efficient recycling concept to this effect. During normal operation, the gas need not be replenished during the entire service life of the switchgear. The switchgear is a hermetically sealed pressure system acc. to IEC (IEC ).
