This paper briefly outlines the advantages and technical characteristics of GIS (Gas-Insulated Switchgear) equipment, and elaborates on several critical quality control points and process control measures during on-site installation. It emphasizes that on-site withstand voltage tests can only partially reflect the overall quality and installation workmanship of GIS equipment. Only by strengthening comprehensive quality control throughout the entire installation process—especially in key areas su

Purpose of Grounding System Functional Grounding (Working Grounding):In power systems, grounding is required for normal operation, such as neutral point grounding. This type of grounding is known as working grounding. Protective Grounding:The metal enclosures of electrical equipment may become energized due to insulation failure. To prevent electric shock hazards to personnel, grounding is provided and is referred to as protective grounding. Overvoltage Protection Grounding:Grounding is installe

1. Pre-Installation PreparationsBefore commencing installation work, the following preparatory steps must be completed: Organization and Training: Organize training sessions for all construction personnel on relevant regulations,technical standards, and construction procedures. Special emphasis should be placed on safety protocols. Site Survey: Examine the intended location of the circuit breaker, its foundation, and the layout of surrounding equipment and wiring to prevent accidental contact wi

1. Maintaining and Restoring the Factory Insulation ConditionWhen a transformer undergoes factory acceptance tests, its insulation condition is at its optimal state. Thereafter, the insulation condition tends to deteriorate, and the installation phase may be a critical period for sudden degradation. In extreme cases, the dielectric strength may drop to the point of failure, leading to coil burnout immediately upon energization. Under normal circumstances, poor installation quality leaves behind

How to Select and Set Circuit Breakers1. Types of Circuit Breakers1.1 Air Circuit Breaker (ACB)Also known as a molded frame or universal circuit breaker, all components are mounted within an insulated metal frame. It is typically open-type, allowing easy replacement of contacts and parts, and can be equipped with various accessories. ACBs are commonly used as main power supply switches. Overcurrent trip units include electromagnetic, electronic, and intelligent types. They provide four-stage pro

Basic Composition and Function of Circuit Breaker Failure ProtectionCircuit breaker failure protection refers to a protective scheme that operates when the relay protection of a faulty electrical device issues a trip command but the circuit breaker fails to operate. It uses the protection trip signal from the faulty equipment and the current measurement from the failed breaker to determine breaker failure. The protection can then isolate other relevant breakers within the same substation in a sh

I. Background and Challenges​Shore power systems have become core technical equipment for ports to reduce carbon emissions and noise pollution. However, these systems face two major challenges in the harsh operational environment of ports:​Severe Environmental Corrosion: High humidity and salt spray in port areas cause serious corrosion to metal components and enclosures of electrical equipment, significantly impacting electrical lifespan and operational reliability.​High Switching Requirements:

Issue Overview​The 10kV air compressor starting system of a company utilizes the ABB vacuum contactor KC2 as the control component for the operating circuit. The dedicated wide-voltage power supply module paired with this contactor presents the following issues:​Frequent failures: The power supply module fails to properly transition the voltage from 300V to 12V, resulting in fuse blowouts.​Poor heat dissipation: Enclosed installation of the module leads to insufficient heat dissipation, acceler

1.Project BackgroundA coal conveying system comprises 15 belt conveyors driven by medium-voltage motors. The system operates under complex conditions, with motors often subjected to heavy loads and frequent starts. To address these challenges and achieve effective control and reliable protection during motor startup, the project comprehensively adopts Vacuum Contactor-Fuse (VCF) combination devices for the 6kV medium-voltage motor power distribution. This solution details the technical features,
