Figure 1.4-1 represents a typical double busbar feeder. The loads result from static and dynamic forces due to bay weight and circuit breaker operation. For each individual layout the mechanical forces are calculated and a corresponding drawing is made.

Static Loads The loads below are calculated per GIS base frame. S S S S 2 busbars without voltage transformer and local control cubicle 1 busbar without voltage transformer and local control cubicle additional load for local control cubicle additional load for voltage transformer 2 x 11 kN 2 x 10 kN 2 x 1.5 kN 2 x 2.5 kN

Dynamic Loads The dynamic loads are measured in a normal industrial building.
Table 1.4-1: Dynamic Loads due to 40 kA design Load case On-operation (tension / pressure) Off-operation (tension / pressure) Load per point (kN) - 2.8 / 2.8 -8/5 Impulse time (ms) 20 - 50 10 - 30 f (Hz) 65 45

The dynamic loads are evenly distributed on the load points 2 . The forces upwards (4 x 8 kN) are reduced by the weight of the bay.

Installation The bay is delivered with a base frame. The base frame will be welded on a straightening iron (C-rail), which is integrated in the concrete floor. If there is no iron structure the GIS supports are to be mounted with chemical anchors M12 x 160 mm or equivalent. Max. tensile load per anchor in concrete with minimum stability B25 / DIN 1045 is 10 kN. Dowel depth: 110 mm.

2.1.2 Cleaning
CAUTION SF6 can loose its arc quenching and insulating properties when contaminated. For this reason, all surfaces and components that will be in contact with SF6 have been thoroughly cleaned in our factory and have been installed under conditions of utmost cleanliness. When working on open devices or gas compartments, avoid the entry of or contact with dirt, sweat and humidity at any time. Water, acid contamination and oxygen (especially when simultaneously present) can cause corrosion that might have a negative impact on the mechanical function of the GIS components. Water, especially when combined with acid contamination, can reduce the dielectric strength of the GIS due to condensation at low operating temperatures and high pressure. For this reason, the degree of contamination has to be limited to a level that corrosion and/or condensation are of no significance. Installation Area: Prior to opening a gas compartment, thoroughly clean and vacuum clean the installation area, especially in the immediate vicinity of the flanges to be connected. Avoid dust disturbance in the installation area. Note Note Carry out a visual inspection of the interior of an open gas compartment. Rub the insulators and all teflon parts with a cloth moistened with a suitable cleaning agent. Cleaned insulators may only be touched wearing disposable latex gloves. Do not use water for cleaning under any circumstance! Cleaning the GIS Components: Immediately before assembly, clean all loose metal parts and subassemblies that have to be installed and all contacting and sealing surfaces.

2.3 Earthing
Earthing is defined as the entirety of means and procedures associated with the earthing of equipment. Earthing means to connect a conductor via an earthing system to earth. Earth refers to both, the earth as a location and the earth as a substance such as humus, clay, sand, gravel and rock. The earth is a conductor whose potential outside the influence of earthing systems is considered to be zero. The Reference Earth (neutral earth) is defined as a part of the earth, especially of its surface, outside the influence of an earthing system in which between two random points no voltages deriving from the earth current can be measured. Earthing system is defined as the entirety of electrically connected earthes, metal parts acting similarly (e g. pole bases, armatures, metal cable sheathing) and earthing leads. Earthing conductor is defined as a conductor, that is embedded in and electrically connected to the earth, or a conductor that is embedded in concrete. In the latter case, the concrete is connected to the earth on a large area (e. g. foundation earth). Earthing lead is defined as an electrical lead laid either outside the earth or insulated in the earth, that connects a GIS part to be earthed with the earth. If a disconnecting link, a disconnector or a Petersen coil is installed between a center point or an outer conductor and the earth, only the connection between earth and the earthing terminal of such a device is considered as an earthing lead. Note The earthing of the GIS is to be documented in the site test protocol Commissioning 1HDG 518 680. The installation of the GIS earthing and the earthing leads shall be strictly in accordance with the project-specific earthing layout diagrams and the earthing plans in the project-specific part of this documentation!

3.1 Tests prior to Commissioning


This document describes the basic procedures for testing of the GIS at site prior to commissioning. These procedures are based on the following: S S S S IEC 62 271-203 IEEE C37.122 Experience from more than 3500 installed GIS bays Technical, commercial and practical aspects of the tests at site prior to commissioning

In most cases the shipping units delivered to site consist of complete bays or large assemblies. These shipping units are subject to a complete factory test prior to delivery. The purpose of the tests at site prior to commissioning is: S S S To detect any rare possible damage or anomaly that may occur during transport To test the complete GIS installation after final assembly at site To ensure uninterrupted operation in service

The sequence of tests described in the following subclauses represents our standard sequence. For special conditions prevailing at site or practical reason this sequence may be modified by agreement between manufacturer and user. WARNING! All actions described in this chapter may only be executed if all notes, cautions and warnings of the product documentation, especially the safety instructions in chapter Operating Instructions in document 1HDG 518 020 Safety Instructions have been read and were understood and that all given conditions are fulfilled. Otherwise, the manufacturer will not take any responsibility due to damages caused by improperly handling. All works related to SF6 are described in chapter Gas insulated Switchgear in document 1HDG 518 005 Gas-Handling and have to be followed strictly! The amount of filled SF6 and the amount of the remaining rest of SF6 have to be documented in the site test protocol Commissioning 1HDG 518 680 in section SF6 Inventory. All documents required for the tests prior to commissioning are listed in the site test protocol Commissioning 1HDG 518 680.

Note

Suitable test devices that are not listed above may be used alternatively.

3.1.2 Inspection after Transport


Check the GIS for completeness, obvious transport damages etc. well before commencement of the installation. Note A form for the transport inspection is included in chapter Delivery in document 1HDG 518 100 Receiving Inspection.

3.1.3 Measurement of Voltage Drop


All contact connections assembled at site are subject to a measurement of the voltage drop. The measurement of the voltage drop is performed on two different locations with q 100 A supplied from a suitable battery or DC supply source. Both test locations are connected to the test device. The actual measurement is effective on the connecting lead (not on the connection to the measuring location). The resistance is calculated using the following formula:

R+U I

in which:

R = resistance U = voltage drop I = current

Note

The default values are specified in chapter 3.1.10 Default Values for Measurement of Voltage Drop.

3.1.4 Check of Gas Density Relays / Gas Density Sensors


The gas density relays / sensors are checked before their installation on the GIS. The test is performed with SF6. The test is to establish the correct contact making of the gas density relay / sensor at a given pressure. The pressure measured at contact making and the actual ambient temperature are compared with the default value. The default value can be obtained from the site test protocol Commissioning 1HDG 518 680 by correlating the contact characteristics with the ambient temperature measured at the time of the test. Note The test of the gas density relays / sensors is to be documented in the site test protocol Commissioning 1HDG 518 680 in section Gas Density Relay resp. Gas Density Sensor.

3.1.5 Check of Gas Tightness


The following components shall be subjected to gas tightness test: S S All flange connections assembled at site All gas couplings and connections assembled at site

All other components are tested in the factory prior to delivery. Note The test for gas tightness at site prior to commissioning is to be documented in the site test protocol Commissioning 1HDG 518 680.

3.1.6 Dew Point Measurement


The moisture content of the gas is measured in all gas compartments. The dew point measurement is performed once the gas compartments have been filled and pressurized with SF6. In order to allow an equalization between the residual moisture of the GIS enclosure material and the dry SF6 filling, this measurement should not be carried out immediately after the filling. The permissible values and the procedures associated with the dew point measurement are listed in chapter Gas Insulated Switchgear in document Gas-Handling 1HDG 518 005 and in document Sulphur Hexafluoride 1HDG 518 006. Note The dew point measurement prior to commissioning is to be documented in the site test protocol Commissioning 1HDG 518 680.

3.2 High Voltage Test of the Main Circuits


WARNING! All actions described in this chapter may only be executed if all notes, cautions and warnings of the product documentation, especially the safety instructions in chapter Operating Instructions in document 1HDG 518 020 Safety Instructions have been read and were understood and that all given conditions are fulfilled. Otherwise, the manufacturer will not take any responsibility due to damages caused by improperly handling. All works related to SF6 are described in chapter Gas insulated Switchgear in document 1HDG 518 005 Gas-Handling and have to be followed strictly! All pressures of the GIS and the recalculation to the ambient temperatures are described in detail in chapter Gas Insulated Switchgear in document 1HDG 518 004 Gas Pressures. Prior to commissioning the GIS is subject to a high voltage test. The test is performed with an AC voltage and a test transformer of suitable size (Table 3.2-1 and Table 3.2-2). As an alternative, both, the GIS and the power cables, can be tested with a resonance test set with variable frequency. The aim of this test is to detect any dielectric irregularities. Such irregularities can have their origin in incorrect assembly, transport damages, foreign bodies etc. This test of one minute duration has been proven over many years of practical application. The subsequent successful energizations of the tested GIS shows that this test guarantees a safe and reliable operation of the GIS. The high voltage test of the GIS is usually performed before the installation of the power cables. In case the power cables have already been installed prior to the high voltage test, they have to be disconnected for the duration of the test. The cables can be disconnected from the GIS by opening the disconnector. Once the power cables have been installed and connected to the GIS, they are high voltage tested; usually this test is performed by the cable manufacturer.

3.2.1 Performance of the Test


The high voltage test of the main circuits will be performed after all installation work has been concluded. If a breakdown occurs, the test has to be repeated. The AC test voltages are listed in Table 3.2-1. Note Note The test is to be performed at filling pressure. The high voltage commissioning test is to be documented in the site test protocol Commissioning 1HDG 518 680. It must be performed in the following sequence: 1. 2. 3. Calculate the maximum number of GIS bays that can be simultaneously tested using the values given in Table 3.2-1 Raise the test voltage at approximately 1 kV / s up to the test voltage listed in Table 3.2-1 and apply for one minute Lower the test voltage at approximately 1 kV / s to zero

3.2.2 Calculation of the Test Burden


The required power of the test transformer depends on the capacitance of the GIS modules (Table 3.2-2). The test burden of the GIS can be calculated by adding the individual capacitances of these GIS modules. Test transformers are available within the range of 45 kVA to 1300 kVA. The test burden can be determined using the following formula: Q = U2 x x Cges Q = test burden (power) U = test voltage w + 2pf 1000 f = frequency Cges = sum of all the modules capacitances incl. insulators The test burden is determined as an equation in units with: f = 50 Hz: f = 60 Hz: Note Q [VA] = U2 [kV] x 0,31 x Cges [nF] Q [VA] = U2 [kV] x 0,38 x Cges [nF]

If the test is performed with a resonance test set with variable frequency, the selected frequency of the resonance test set has to be used in the equation above. The capacitance C is determined by adding the individual capacitances of all the GIS modules for the arrangement to be tested. The result obtained is the capacitance load per phase with the other two phases being earthed through their connection to the GIS enclosure.

3.2.3 Possibilities for Connection of the Test Set


Usually a portable high voltage test set is being used (Figure 3.2-1). The test transformer (4) is connected to the phases to be tested by means of a test adapter (2) and a flange adapter ELK-EXK (3). The phase to be tested can be selected on the test adapter, while the other two phases are earthed. Depending on the type and individual arrangement, the test adapter can be connected either to the end of the busbar or to the voltage transformer flange position. Other arrangements are possible as well.

3.2.4 HV Cable-Test at Cable End Unit


HV Cable-Test at Cable End Unit with Plug-in Contact from Suedkabel

3.2.4.1 General
There are various testing possibilities for carrying out the cable test on HV cable with extruded insulation. The test voltages for cables with extruded insulation is given in IEC 60 840 Power cables with extruded insulation and their accessories for rated voltages above 30 kV (Um=36 kV) up to 150 kV (Um=170 kV); Test methods and requirements. Acc. to IEC it is recommanded to test the cable with a resonant frequency test device with frequencies between 20 and 300 Hz. Please consult the cable terminal box manufacturer about the procedure before carrying out a test of this nature. The following applies in general: if the cable ends in a transformer or an enclosed switchgear, an agreement on the test between the user, the manufacturer of the transformer or switchgear and the cable manufacturer is required. This agreement can refer both to the testing facility and to the duration and level of the test voltage.

3.2.4.2 Carrying out the High Voltage Test at the Cable


The following situations are possible for the cable connection: Cable connection from GIS to outdoor (Figure 3.2-9) or indoor terminal box (Figure 3.2-10)

Figure 3.2-9: Cable connection GIS - outdoor connection

In this case, the cable test will take place using the test voltage input via either the indoor or outdoor terminal box. The test is carried out as with conventional compact terminal boxes (as shown in Figure 3.2-10 ).

Testing of the Cable separately from the GIS-Units Another possibility for the test is to test the cable separately from the GIS units, as long as there is a connecting terminal box on both sides. To do so, a special test adapter, which can be ordered from the terminal box supplier, is required.

4.1.1 Design and Operating Principle


If the gas density falls below a predefined value, the gas density relay generates a warning signal consisting of two stages. The gas density relay provided for the gas circuit breaker compartment has three contacts (1 x warning-stage 1, 2 x blocking-phase 2), which are directly conducted to the operating mechanism cabinet of the circuit breaker, where they are processed. The gas density relays provided for the other gas compartments of the GIS have three contacts as well. Normally, two of these, namely those inside the control box of the GIS, can be used to indicate warning signals. (1 x warning-stage 1, 1 x collective indication-stage 2) Electrical Indication The gas density to be supervised in the gas compartment (5) is continuously compared with the gas density of an identical gas in the reference volume (4) (Figure 4.1-1). Since the gas in both volumes has the same temperature, the densities can be compared through a comparison of the pressures. The differential pressure between the two gas volumes (4) and (5) moves the metal bellows (6). This movement is transferred through the operating rod to the micro switch (8). The micro switch (8) is electrically connected with the screw terminal (3). The terminal (3) can be mounted and dismounted without any tools. Visual Indication The gas density relay has a pressure indication. From this display the measured range and the actual pressure value can be read from a scale. The switching points are marked with colour gradients (green/yellow, yelow/red) on the scale. The coloured ranges signify: Green: Gas pressure is OK Yellow: Gas pressure is dropped Red: Gas pressure is too low

The circuit breaker requires extremely little maintenance. It works as a single-pressure self blast breaker with one interrupting chamber for each pole. An increase of pressure in the heat-up volume generates the gas flow required for arc extinction and restabilization during a breaking operation.

The circuit breaker operating mechanism is a closed unit in itself. It can be easily dismounted from the circuit breaker for maintenance purposes and does not require any adjustments after reinstallation.

4.2.1 Design of the Circuit Breaker


The current transformers (3) are integrated into the circuit breaker compartment. The circuit breaker compartment is separated from the rest of the GIS bay by means of barrier insulators (1). The interrupting chambers (4) are installed in series next to each other and connected to the barrier insulators (1) by means of conductors (2). In the open position, the connectors of the busbars are separated from the conductors (2) by the chamber insulator (Figure 4.2-1). The energy necessary for operation of the circuit breaker is generated by the operating mechanism (7) and transmitted through the rotary bushing (6) and a operating rod onto the interrupting chambers (4) (Figure 4.2-1). Once the operating mechanism (7) and the drive plate (5) have been dismounted, the interrupting chambers (4) can be removed, e. g. for maintenance purposes (Figure 4.2-1).

4.2.2 Operating Mechanism of the Interrupting Chamber


Closing Operation: During a closing operation the circuit breaker operating mechanism moves the operating rod (1). This operating rod (1) in turn moves parts of the interrupting chamber (the insulating nozzle (8), the auxiliary nozzle (6) and the blast piston (2)) towards the fixed contact (9). The pre-ignition takes place on the arcing contacts (5), so that the main current contacts (4) close practically without current (Figure 4.2-2). Opening Operation: An opening operation works in the opposite sequence with the main contacts (4) being separated first, followed by the arcing contacts (5) (Figure 4.2-2). The thermal energy of the arc increases the pressure in the heat-up volume (3). When the arcing contacts open, a gas flow through the auxiliary (6) and the insulating nozzle (8) is generated. This gas flow cools the arc by intensive radial blowing and leads to its extinction in the natural current zero (Figure 4.2-2).

4.3 Circuit Breaker Operating Mechanism Type HMB


4.3.1 Modules of Operating Mechanism Components
The modular design and the main components of the operating mechanism type HMB: The modules are: S S S S S Charging module Storage module Working module Control module Monitoring module

The technical concept of the circuit breaker operating mechanism achieves a compact design by combining the mechanical energy storage in disc springs and the hydraulic operating and control principles. The force of the disc spring assembly acts on a storage piston. On the storage piston, the mechanical energy values spring force and spring travel are converted to the hydraulic energy values pressure and volume. The hydraulic power transmission (oil column) between the high-pressure store and the operating cylinders serves as a quickly switching changeover variator for the CLOSE- and OPEN-operation and besides it enables a simple setting of the switching speeds by means of the throttle screws. The operating mechanism control and the energy transmission are based on the field-proven structural elements of the hydraulic operating technology such as the high-pressure hydraulic pump, storage piston, changeover valves as well as an operating piston with an integrated hydraulic end position damping. For the HMB circuit-breaker operating mechanism, an easy-to-install and servicefriendly, modular design has been chosen, integrating the hydraulic control and operating functions in aluminium modules. The circuit breaker operating mechanism do not have any hydraulic pipework. All modules are interconnected by means of flanges in a modular design.

The operating speeds for the CLOSE- and OPEN-operation can be adjusted independently of each other with the throttle screws available on the operating mechanism. The operating speeds may only be adjusted when the disc spring assembly is untensioned. For this release the pressure release screw and untension the disc spring assembly slowly by lowering the system pressure. Loosen the locknut (2) of the throttle screw (1) and adjust the operating speed by turning the throttle screw (Figure 4.3-2). The operating speed diminishes when the throttle screw (1) is turned right and increases when it is turned left. After the adjustment retighten the locknut (2).

4.3.4 Instructions for the Operation


The Chapter below contains instructions for the triggering and the operation of the circuit breaker operating mechanism.

4.3.4.1 Pump Starts and Checks for Internal Tightness


The gaskets and valves used in the hydraulic system provide maximum technical tightness. Minimum leakages on metallic sealing seats may cause minimum losses of spring tension, which are compensated by automatic pump starts. Different operating mechanism also from one delivery may show statistically caused different amounts of pump starts per day. This affects in no way the life cycle of the operating mechanism and represents no defect. Up to 10 pump starts per day are permissible, even when the breaker is not operated. With more than 10 pump starts per day the operating mechanism shall be monitored. Note Upon more than 20 pump starts per day the manufacturer shall be contacted. Please find our contact address in the product manual in section Operation Instruction in chapter Gas Insulated Switchgear in document 1HDG 518 007 Contact. When determining the pump start numbers the pump starts caused by switching operations (CLOSE or OPEN) shall be deducted from the total number of the pump starts. All specifications refer to the monthly avarage. The leak test shall be done during a period of at least eight hours in the operating positions CLOSE and OPEN. The test procedure is to bring the breaker into the corresponding position and to tension the disc spring assembly; to prevent an automatic pump start by disconnecting the motor supply conductor or by switching off the miniature circuit-breaker in the motor circuit. The following data shall be recorded in the test protocol: Time Difference of the spring travel (Measure changes as per Figure 4.3-3)

The spring tension may diminish by 30 mm per 24 hours (with switched-off pump motor).

4.3.4.2 Oil Level


The circuit breaker operating mechanism are filled in the factory with a hydraulic oil quantity comprising an oil reserve, too. If the hydraulic oil is visible in the oil gauge glass with a fully tensioned disc spring assembly there is enough hydraulic oil available to perform the switching operations (Figure 4.3-4). Used Oil brand See 4.3.8 Utilities. A too low oil level can be corrected by refilling via the low-pressure connector. Note Only use filtered oil (purity level ISO 4406-13/10) for filling.

4.4.1 Commissioning
The commissioning protocols of the circuit-breaker concerning the operating mechanism shall be observed. Prior to the commissioning, visual checks according to the commissioning protocols shall be performed. All adjustments are already factory-made and -fixed. Readjustments can be therefore left out during the commissioning. At the commissioning, the disc spring assembly of the operating mechanism shall be tensioned and the operating mechanism coupled with the circuit-breaker shall be manually switched on and off several times. The monitoring functions of the spring travel switch and the auxiliary switch shall be checked. Prior to switching on the pump motor, the changeover valve shall be switched to the OPEN position. For this press the rubber cap of the OPEN-solenoid with your thumb. Thereby it is prevented that the changeover valve stands in an intermediate position while the operating mechanism is unpressurized and the disc spring assembly cannot be tensioned (pressure cannot be built up). Functional tests shall be performed after the completion of the commissioning work and immediately before the start of the regular operation and after maintenance work as well. Functional tests may only be performed when the circuit-breaker is disconnected from the high voltage system, there is at least blocking pressure of the SF6 gas and the disc springs are tensioned.

4.4.1.1 Manually Operating the Operating Mechanism


It is possible to trigger the circuit-breaker by hand via the hand plungers of the changeover valve (Figure 4.4-2). A manual triggering serves only to check the reliability performance in case of servicing or maintenance work and does not represent any normal operational case. WARNING! In this case the electrical interlocks are cancelled. The warning and danger instructions given in the product manual in section Operation Instruction in chapter Operating Instructions in document 1HDG 518 020 Safety Instructions shall be imperatively observed. According to IEC 62271-100 manual triggering shall be used only for maintenance and emergency operation on a dead circuit.

4.4.1.2 Putting Out of Service


When doing maintenance work on the operating mechanism, the circuit-breaker shall be put out of service. WARNING! An automatic start of the pump motor shall be prevented by disconnecting the electrical motor connectors or switching off the miniature circuit-breaker. After the locknut has been loosened, turn the pressure release screw slowly clockwise in order to untension the disc spring assembly. CAUTION With opened housing in the area of the disk spring assembly and movable parts the risk of squashing is given.

The operating mechanism is normally motor-operated. Manual operation is possible in emergencies. The rotating movement of the operating mechanism is transmitted through a threaded spindle (7) and a cam disk (5) via the drive rod (8) onto the moving contacts (Figure 4.5-5). The combined disconnector / earthing switch has two drive motors (10), one for the disconnector and one for the earthing switch. For manual emergency operation a handcrank can be attached to the rod (2) that operates the threaded spindle (7). The cam disk (5) is located between the threaded spindle (7) and the drive rod (8) of the contact blades and is actuated by a carrier (9). The cam disk (5) locks the device in the following end positions:

Product Manual GIS Equipment and Functional Descriptions

The cam disk (5) has the following functions (Figure 4.5-5): Torque-free start-up of the operating mechanism End position locking End positioning

The motor current is interrupted by a limit switch. When the device is manually operated, the interlocking switch (1) automatically disconnects the motor circuit. The auxiliary contacts (4) and the position indicator (3) are linked to the operating rod (8). All electrical connections are separated for the disconnector and the earthing switch and are connected with coded plug connections (6).

4.5.2.1 Manual Operation (Control Voltage Present)


WARNING! With present control voltage the system is supervised. Without control voltage the interlocking conditions are not controlled. Therefore, a secure operation isnt anymore made sure. Because this case of operation can be dangerous to life or physical condition (i.E. switching short-circuit), is the operation without control voltage allowed only for specially trained personal and can be carried out only with special tools. For manual operation all interlocking conditions (4.5.2.2 Locking) have to be fulfilled. The device has to be unlocked. In emergencies the disconnector and the earthing switch can be operated locally directly on the device by means of a handcrank. As soon as the handcrank is inserted, the motor circuit is automatically interrupted. For manual operation of the disconnector / earthing switch the front cover has to be removed from the operating mechanism (Figure 4.5-7). The front cover is secured with 4 screws M6 (4 Nm).

4.6.1 Design and Operating Principle of the Device


The earthing switch consists of the switching device itself and the fixed contacts attached to the device to be earthed. For setting and testing of protection relays and for measuring the voltage drop over the main conductor path, the earthing switch with short circuit making capacity can be isolated from the GIS earthing. For this reason, the contact tubes (18) are fixed to the centered drive system by means of an isolating connection (Figure 4.6-1). For normal operation, however, the conductors (19) must be properly installed in such a way to ensure that the contact tubes (18) are connected to earth through the contact segments (17). The earthing switch has also the capability to interrupt induced currents during unearthing an overhead line with a parallel line energized.

4.6.2 Design and Operation Principle of the Drive


The earthing switch with short circuit making capacity is equipped with a motor-operated snap spring operating mechanism. In emergencies, the switch can be operated manually from the rod end of the drive spindle (9) (Figure 4.6-1). During an opening operation, the drive motor (8) operates the drive lever (12) through the drive spindle (9). By this, the drive rod turns and moves the earthing bracket (16) with the contact pins into the OFF position. At the same time, the closing spring (13) is being charged for the next closing operation. During a closing operation, the closing spring (13) passes its dead centre position. This generates a torque on the switching lever (4) that automatically closes the device. The slot in the drive lever (12) allows for independent movement of the contact system and the charging mechanism once the dead centre position has been passed. The end positions are determined by inner limit stops. The indicator switch and the position indicator are driven by a mechanical connection. The power supply of the motor is deactivated by the limit switch (7). In case the device is operated manually for emergency use, the interlocking switch (10) opens the motor circuit. All electrical connections are made by means of a coded plug device (1). WARNING! The operation of the module without short circuit conductors (19, Figure 4.6-1) is forbidden, because there is no protection against electrical shock at the bushings and high voltage may be conducted outside the enclosure. The manual operation for emergencies has a mechanical limit stop. Do not use force to pass this limit stop, otherwise the operating mechanism might be mechanically damaged!

Design and Operating Principle Figure 4.8-1 shows the current transformer integrated in the circuit breaker from the top. The current transformer cores (1) are integrated in the circuit breaker enclosure (6) and can be installed in either one of the available flanges. The integrated current transformer is delivered in the layout with or without terminals. In both layouts the bushing plate (3) allows for connection of up to 45 leads. Layout with Terminals The secondary terminals (2) of the current transfomer cores (1) are lead out of the SF6-gas compartment through a bushing plate (3) with cast-resin insulation. From there, they are connected to the terminals (4) in the terminal box (5). Layout without Terminals The secondary terminals (2) are connected to the control cubicle directly from the bushing plate (3). The terminals (4) and the terminal box (5) are not required. CAUTION All terminals are short circuited and earthed for the transport to site. For the voltage test of the main circuits and the measurement of the voltage drop of the main conductor path, all terminals must be either short circuited and earthed or completely connected. After the tests the earthing connection shall be removed.

4.9 Inductive Voltage Transformer VT1


4.9.1 Design and Operating Principle
Inductive voltage transformers are low power transformers in which the secondary voltage is proportional to and in phase with the primary voltage for all practical purposes. The voltage transformer of the GIS transforms the network voltage to be measured into a secondary voltage that can be fed to measuring and protective devices. At the same time, the primary and the secondary windings are galvanically separated from each other. The inductive voltage transformer VT1 complies with the relevant IEC-, ANSI- and IEEE-standards (Figure 4.9-1). Usually it has two secondary windings and one auxiliary winding for earth fault detection. The ratings are project-specific. The inductive voltage transformer is sectionalized from the adjacent GIS compartment by means of a barrier insulator (2). It is equipped with two gas fittings (3) and (5), a SF6-gas moisture filter and a bursting disk (6). CAUTION The inductive voltage transformer is delivered filled with SF6 at a pressure of 150 kPa. Do not evacuate!

4.10 Surge Arrester Type AZ0


4.10.1 Design and Operating Principle
Surge arresters of type AZ0 (Figure 4.10-1) are used in SF6-gas-insulated switchgear to protect against atmospheric overvoltages and switching surges. These arresters can be connected at any unused flange (if necessary by using an adapter) of the switchgear. These surge arresters are of three-phase encapsulated design with an internal gas compartment sealed by the barrier insulator (5). The active components of the surge arrester are metal-oxide (MO) resistor disks arranged in a stack. The flats of the individual disks have conductive metal coatings. The height of the stack depends on the system voltage. Specially designed tie-rods and springs maintain the correct contact pressure in the stack irrespective of temperature fluctuations. Shielding electrodes at the HV-side of the resistor stacks control the electrical field of the active components and the earthed metal enclosure. The metal enclosure (1) and the base plate (3) of the surge arrester are made of aluminum. The bursting disc (4) and the two gas connections (2) are mounted at the base plate. One of the gas connections accommodates the density monitor. On the base plate optional bushings (7) are provided for mounting surge counters or currentmetering devices. In Figure 4.10-2 and Figure 4.10-3 the mounting position of the surge counters (8, 9) is shown. The base plate also has four M16 tap holes which are provided to connect the earthing conductors. The bushings conducting the surge current have to be connected directly to the base plate. In case optional surge current monitors are applied they are connected between bushings and base plate.

Climatic Measures The normal heat emission via the surface is sufficient for a built-in set of bay controller and a single protection relay. With a possible inner air circulation also a constant temperature in the housing and an improved heat emission via the surface is obtained. If the mounting of further components in the same cubicle is intended, a forced cooling is required as additional step. Therefore an air supplying insert on the bottom of the control cubicle is combined with an exhaust air insert. The dimensioning is adjusted to the conditions and is performed specific to the project.

4.14 Wiring System of the Control Cubicle


General For having enough mounting space with integrated control cubicles for all required devices a special mounting and wiring system is used. Mounting The wiring system consists of prefabricated parts which are mounted to a wiring frame. The frame mainly is made of vertical bearing rail on the sides, horizontal mounting bars, mounting straps and wiring profiles. This frame replaces the back-side mounting plate. The mounting bars on the front side are elaborated according to the DIN mounting plates. Here are the single devices snapped on. Single vertical positioned mounting bars on the side of the cubicle are provided for mounting of terminal bars. In the wiring frame distributed on the height some single horizontal covers intentionally are carried out a bit larger for being able to grip behind the frame. Wiring For this wiring system the wiring is established in the back area. The wiring is totally accessible from the front. Advantages S Because of the establishment of wiring in the back area, cable channels are not required. With this technic its possible to reduce the volume of the control cubicle compared to a free standing type about approx. 45 %. The wiring is done with automatically produced single wires. Because of the loose distribution of the wiring over the complete back side of the control cubicle and division of wiring and device area the air ciculation is improved, a good heat emission is given. Special hot spots as it happens in filled-up cable channels are avoided. A fast and uncomplicated accessibility is given for refinished wiring or changes. There is always enough space in the wiring area for additional wiring. In case of a faulty device the device may be changed immediately and service-friendly because the single wirings for the device connections are passed from behind to front via special supporting cams. The connecting wires stay because of the cams in position and make any confusion impossible.

Therefore the following positions of electrical power may be excluded for the calculation of the installed heating power in the control cubicle: AC: S S S S DC: S S Relays circuit breaker supervision: External load All short-time and peak loads: External load Light: Only at open door Anti-condensation heaters of the local control cabinet: Controlled by thermostat and hygrostat Anti-condensation heaters of the operating mechanisms: External load Socket: External load

With this the maximum heating efficiency in worst case is calculated (under the assumption electric power equals heating efficiency) from the components micro circuit breaker and computing assembly (Table 4.15-1). With this a sum of 68 W as installed power loss results for a control cubicle with one computing assembly of the type REC6xx, 68 W with a combined control and protection unit type REF54x. For further computing assemblies corresponding power losses have to be added, a fan is not needed. The internal consumption of eventually build-in protection relays is dependant of the type of relay used and may differ extremely. For this reason this is not mentioned in the typical overview.

4.16 Power Demand Local Control Cubicle


The power demand per bay is subject to the type of control technology and switchgear. The consumption values to be considered for a typical bay (double busbar with circuit breaker, earthing switch and three disconnector / earthing switches) are displayed in the table on page 2 hereunder. It has to be distinguished between the following types of consumers respectively loads: Permanent Loads AC S S S S DC S S S S S S Alarm annunciators (max. at lamp test) Position indicators Auxiliary relays Contactors CB control Bay control unit REF54x / REC6xx MCBs for DC-circuits Cubicle lighting (with open cubicle door) Heater for control cubicle Heater for operating mechanisms (depends on the control voltage: from 60 VAC to 125 VAC / up to 250 VAC optional) MCBs for AC-circuits

Short Time Load, 1 sec. - 30 sec. DC S S S Hydraulic pump CB, 24 sec. Motors for disconnector / earthing switch, 1 sec. Interlocking solenoid disconnector / earthing switch, 1 sec. (only ELK-04)

For the max. power demand sum only one drive and interlocking solenoid together with the hydraulic pump function is relevant at the same time.

Dyn. Peak Load, < 1 sec. DC S Switch-on peak Trip / Close coils CB, 20 ms

Starting Current S S Hydraulic pump CB 50 ms Operating mechanism motors for disconnector / earthing switch, 50 ms

For the max. power demand sum only the hydraulic pump and one operating mechanism motor is relevant at the same time. Temporarely Load AC S Panel socket outlet

Simultaneity For the calculation of simultaneity-factors it has to be considered, that S S a busbar protection can trip all circuit breakers simultaneously. the hydraulic pump of circuit breaker will start to run only after an ON-command or subject to the position of the spring travel monitoring level to avoid simultaneous start of all CB pumps and hereby high loads. under normal conditions only one operating mechanism motor will run at a certain time in one bay (Double Command Blocking)

Protection Relays The power demand of possibly built in protection relays strongly depends on the type and make of the relay and may vary considerably. Due to this reason the table below does not show typical Watt figures for such relays. Therefore this demand is not taken under consideration in the table for the typical power demand below.

Electrical Handcrank Interlocking The opening for the handcrank to manually operate the disconnector/earthing switch is covered by an interlocking plate. In order to insert the handcrank into the opening, this metal plate has to be moved to the side. A limit switch signals the opening of the plate to the control circuits of the respective switching device. A motor operation of this device is prohibited. End Position Locking Both, the disconnector and the earthing switch, can be locked in either one of the end positions. The interlocking plate for the handcrank is locked in the end position and prohibits manual operation. A limit switch signals the locking of this plate to the control circuits of the respective switching device. A motor operation of the device is blocked. Circuit Protection In order to be able to selectively disconnect and connect the various consumers in the GIS bay (e. g. the drive mechanisms, the fans, anti-condensation heaters, bay control unit etc.), micro circuit breakers are used to distribute them onto several independent circuits: S AC: S DC: Circuit breaker control Disconnector/earthing switch control Dissconnector/earthing switch motors Hydraulic pump motor Bay control unit signals Bay control unit supply Protection TRIP II Anti-condensation heaters and lighting in the local control cubicles Fans Anti-condensation heaters in the GIS bay

Activation The input voltages of the alarm signals are connected to the binary inputs of the bay control unit (Figure 4.17-10). LED-annunciators Freshly acquired alarm signals are signalled either: S or S By the red ALARM LED only (e. g. if all available LEDs are allocated to other signals or if further alarm messages are required) By a steady red LED on the bay control unit (in additon a red LED ALARM will light up)

Once an alarm is no longer active, the associated LED on the bay control unit extinguishes (regardless, whether the alarm had already been acknowledged or not). Acknowledgment of alarms is possible either: S or S From the MicroSCADA only Remotely from the MicroSCADA and locally on the bay control unit

In the latter case all alarms are automatically reset locally, as well. If an alarm is acknowledged, but still active, the associated LED and/or the ALARM LED remain red lit.

Cubicle lighting A bulb is switched on via a door contact switch. Since integrated cubicles are used a shock-proof design is selected because of the switch impact of the circuit breaker. Cubicle heating (option) The cubicle heating is switched on automatically by a regulator depending on humidity and temperature. Antipumping control of circuit breaker Pump prevention stops the uncontrolled switching (pumping) of the circuit breaker when there is a continuous ON impulse and a simultaneously applied OFF impulse. A single switching operation (ON / OFF) is permitted. With an applied OFF impulse, it is possible to switch on manually. OFF blocking of the circuit breaker The OFF blocking occurs if the drive energy for a trip,or if the SF6 gas density in the C.B. housing is too low. ON blocking of the circuit breaker The ON blocking occurs if the drive energy for a Close/Trip sequence or the SF6 gas density in the C.B. gas compartment is too low. Control and supervision of the hydraulic pump S Control: The hydraulic pump is activated under the following conditions: When the circuit breaker is switched on: S S Spring travel switch contact Motor ON closed

When the circuit breaker is switched off: Spring travel switch contact CO blocking closed

In this way, varying energy reserves are stored in the operating mechanism depending on the switch status. A circuit breaker OCO cycle is therefore always possible in the ON status, while in OFF status the energy reserve ranges from OCO (newly recharged) to CO cycles. This ensures that the hydraulic pump does not start up as soon as the circuit breaker is switched off, which is particularly important for the battery layout of an installation, especially when the bus bar protection causes several C.B. trips. The control starts up the hydraulic pump after switching on the circuit breaker. Within approx. 10 seconds, the energy required for an OCO cycle is available again. This results in staggered start-up times for the hydraulic pump motors. A time relay limits the pump running time in the case of an error.

All devices are contact safe, this means finger safe in the operating area and in the inner cubicle at least safe for back of the hand contact. Completion of cubicles Beneath cubicle lightning and eventually cubicle heating also the M.C.B.s for the different voltage circuits as well as terminal strips are installed in the inner cubicle. The terminal strips are grouped functionally. The circuit breaker supervision as well as the operating mechanism contactors of the high voltage devices are not mounted in the control cubicle but directly in the operating mechanism boxes. Wiring The wiring of the single devices one with another is performed with black switching wire, preferably with 1.0 mm2 cross section. Wire designation If wire designations are applied they are made of label strips which are shoved in transparent tubes mounted onto the switching wires. The designation plates allows a labeling with approximately 12 characters per plate. The plates are labeled by the thermotransfere method. Cabling The connection between the operating mechanisms and the control cubicle is performed with 50 or 60core system cables. Gas density monitor, current and if necessary voltage transformer as well as heating cables are inserted into the cubicle by cable glands. The cabling of the station side is performed through the cubicle floor. In the cubicle floor a movable folded floor plate is located hence follows a variable gap for the inserted cables. Remaining gaps are filled with assembly foam on site.

5.1 Maintenance of the GIS


The operational safety of gas insulated switchgear is not affected by any external impacts such as dirt, humidity etc. For this reason our SF6-gas insulated switchgear requires virtually no maintenance. Inspection: Functional and visual inspections are carried out at 8-year intervals. The gas compartments are not opened for such inspections. Maintenance: The individual switchgears have to be controlled after a certian number of operations, and their contacts are to be overhauled depending on the current loads imposed. Such an overhaul requires opening the respective gas compartment. For the duration of the maintenance the installation has to be partly taken out of service. We recommend calling in our service for all work involving the interior parts of the switchgear. Note Please find our contact address in the product manual in section Operation Instruction in chapter Gas Insulated Switchgear in document 1HDG 518 007 Contact.

Maintenance Schedule: Table 5.1-1 summarizes all relevant inspection and maintenance intervals.

Coupling with Operating Mechanism (Figure 5.4-3) In order to couple the operating mechanism it has to be in the ON (CLOSE) position. The interrupting chambers have to be in the ON (CLOSE) position, as well (distance 151 mm). Adjust the lock nut (7) so that the eyebolt can be coupled with coupling bolts to the outer lever (6). During the coupling the blow cylinder and the operating mechanism must not be moved out of their ON (CLOSE) positions. The position of the inner lever (5) with coupled operating rod shall not be moved. Couple one time the 3-pole operating mechanism and three times the 1-pole operating mechanism.

Checking of Interrupting Chamber Stroke (Figure 5.4-3) After carried out mounting of interrupting chamber and coupling check the chamber stroke: For this purpose put the coupled interrupting chamber by moving manually the operating mechanism skid in position OFF (OPEN). The dimension of the upper edge of the housing for the bell crank (2) to the upper edge of the eye bolt (1) has to be 41 mm (tolerance: +0.5 mm 1.5 mm) instead of 151 mm. The outcome of this is an interrupting chamber stroke of 110 mm (tolerance: 2 mm).

5.8 Disposal of Equipment Component Parts


5.8.1 General
GIS is environmental-friendly. After end of life of a GIS (estimated to 30 50 years) the GIS-components shall be disposed. Several working groups are currently elaborating guide-lines for disposal (e.g. CIGRE). Therefore this manual only can give brief recommendations for disposal. For details please refer to the actual CIGRE-publication or contact your local ABB-service department.

5.8.2 Information on Disposal


All GIS components can be disposed of in accordance with the applicable laws and regulations and in an environmentally friendly way. The disposed component parts can be utilized as mixed or pure scrap. The scrap contains the following material, which can all be considered as non-hazardous: S S S S S S S S Metals (aluminium, ferrous and non-ferrous metals) Porcelain and ceramics Plastics (PA / PTFE / silicon) Cast resin Filter material (AL2O3) Electronic components Oil and grease Acrylic varnish

The SF6 gas has to be removed with the appropriate equipment (e .g. DILO) and can be recycled after filtering and drying. Open gas compartments might contain solid SF6 decomposition products generated during switching operations. All gaseous decomposition products are bound in the filtering material. WARNING! SF6 decomposition products might cause irritation to the skin, the eyes and the mucous membranes. For the disposal of switchgear using SF6 as insulating or arc quenching medium all relevant safety measures have to be taken. Make sure to comply with all respective national and local regulations. The return of SF6 gas is contractually regulated with the SF6 suppliers. ABB will guarantee the return of SF6 gas in accordance with the applicable regulations. Prior to disposal of the components, the hydraulic oil contained in the operating mechanism of the circuit breaker has to be removed and disposed of separately. WARNING! The disk spring column is mechanically precharged with high tension forces. Disassembly of disk spring should be handled by authorized personnel only according to ABB procedure and safety regulation. For disposal, the local regulations and laws should be followed. The different materials and utilities used in HMB drives are listed in this document. The local ABB representatives will be happy to help you with any questions relating to disposal of equipment components.
