Product descriptions from the supplier

Description

Description:

  • This is a high standard design SF6 gas load break switch which is suit for pole mounted.

  • RPS type load break switch is KEMA type tested.

  • RPS type load break switch can combined as below different functions switchgear:

  • Manual type load break switch

  • Motorize type load break switch

 What is a tank circuit breaker compressed air interrupter?

Working Principle:

  • Working Principle: During the opening operation of the circuit breaker, the moving contact compresses the SF₆ gas within the arc quenching chamber, increasing the gas pressure and causing it to flow rapidly toward the arc region. The high-speed gas flow blows and cools the arc, effectively extinguishing it. During the closing operation, the gas returns to its original state as the moving contact moves in the opposite direction.

Features:

  • Excellent Interrupting Performance: The pressurized arc quenching chamber offers excellent interrupting performance, with a short arcing time and long electrical life.

  • Multiple Interruptions: It can continuously interrupt large short-circuit currents at rated voltage multiple times without frequent maintenance.

  • High Mechanical Reliability: The design ensures high mechanical reliability.

  • Suitable for High Voltage Systems: It is suitable for transmission and distribution systems operating at 40.5 kV and above. For example, the LW8-40.5 type SF₆ circuit breaker uses a pressurized arc quenching chamber.

    Impact of DC Bias in Transformers at Renewable Energy Stations Near UHVDC Grounding ElectrodesWhen the grounding electrode of an Ultra-High-Voltage Direct Current (UHVDC) transmission system is located close to a renewable energy power station, the return current flowing through the earth can cause a rise in ground potential around the electrode area. This ground potential rise leads to a shift in the neutral-point potential of nearby power transformers, inducing DC bias (or DC offset) in their

    In practical work, insulation resistance of distribution transformers is generally measured twice: the insulation resistance between thehigh-voltage (HV) windingand thelow-voltage (LV) winding plus the transformer tank, and the insulation resistance between theLV windingand theHV winding plus the transformer tank.If both measurements yield acceptable values, it indicates that the insulation among the HV winding, LV winding, and transformer tank is qualified.
