SAFETY SHEET
SF6
Use and Handling

Sulphur hexafluoride (SF6) is a gas which in its basic state is colourless, odourless and tasteless. It is
not toxic, but it cannot sustain life. It is a heavy gas that is dispersed slowly into the atmosphere.
In its natural state, SF6 is delivered and stored in pressurized tanks (bottles or spheres) at a pressure
of approximately 20 bar at 20C (in its liquid form) and complies with IEC standard 376.
However, under the effect of the electric arc, the SF6 molecules break up and the elements mostly
recombine during cooling either due to extinction of the arc or by regeneration caused by the
presence of active absorbent charges within the circuit breaker.
Various chemical reactions, associated with the volatilization of the materials in contact with the
electric arc, create either fluoridized or sulphurous secondary gas products or solid products in the
form of metallic fluoride powder ; or again, in the presence of traces of water or moisture,
hydrofluoric acid or sulphur dioxide.
In the life-cycle of the equipment, SF6 can be observed not only in its pure state, but also in its
contaminated state :
-
the use of new SF6 for filling or adding,
leaks under normal operating conditions,
maintenance involving the opening of circuit breakers containing old SF6 (decomposition
products),
abnormal conditions (internal arc fault causing the shielding to break),
circuit breaker recycling on end of life-cycle.
WORK REQUIREMENTS.
Follow the instructions for the transport of pressurized containers.
The storage of these containers is governed by the same storage regulations as compressed gas
bottles :
-
keep away from any source of heat and in a cool, dry and well-ventilated area,
always fit a pressure reducing valve.

Whilst SF6 in its pure state is not toxic, the decomposition products have varying degrees of toxicity.
They may irritate the skin, the eyes and the mucous membranes; and in massive amounts may
cause serious lesions (oedema, heart failure, circulatory disorders and unconsciousness).
However, very rapidly and before there is any real danger, signs such as a pungent smell, irritation
of the mucous of the nose, the eyes and the mouth will give a warning and the personnel
concerned will have sufficient time to take the necessary safety actions.
Where the gas is used or handled within enclosed premises, ensure adequate ventilation,
especially low down.
If the gas is inhaled, the area concerned must be evacuated immediately.
Under normal operating conditions, leaks are exceptionally minor and not critical, even when the
gas contains impurities (due to the regenerating filters in the circuit breaker).
Filling and where necessary topping up operations must be carried out using the appropriate tools.
During maintenance operations, or at the end of the life-cycle, dust inside the equipment must be
removed by a vacuum extractor and the operator should wear a mask. Gas recovery must be
carried out using the appropriate gas recovery equipment.
Gases and decomposition products must be treated and/or disposed of by specialist organizations.
Under extremely abnormal conditions (e.g. break in the shielding) in an enclosed space, individual
protective equipment is recommended.
Lastly, it is forbidden to smoke, drink, eat or keep food in the vicinity of open SF6 equipment,
whether indoors or outside (harmful dust).
It is essential that both the fitter and the user read IEC Technical Report 1634 regarding the use and
handling of sulphur hexafluoride gas.

Opening
On receiving a manual or electrical open order, the energy accumulated in the

operating mechanisms opening spring (32) is freed.
The control lever (30), activated by the opening spring (32), transmits the
movement to the lower pole lever (34) via the rod linkage (31), in turn moving
the moving contact (11), thus separating the contacts.

Opening
Stage 1 :
Start of opening
When tube (12) in the moving contact (11) separates from the permanent contact (21), the current is routed via the arc contacts (17).
11
Stage 2 :
Thermal effect
12
17
21
When the contacts (17) separate, an arc appears, and the energy from this
arc causes a rise in the pressure in the thermal expansion chamber (Vt),
which is enclosed by the stem (24) of the fixed contact (23) and the isolating
nozzle (14).

Opening, continued
Stage 3 :
Breaking
When the stem (24) of the fixed contact (23) is extracted from the nozzle (14),
the thermal overpressure in the chamber (Vt) is released, which causes a jet
of gas, just before the current reaches zero, which ensures the arc is completely extinguished.
Simultaneously, the increase in pressure in the vicinity of the arc spreads
across to the piston (18) exerting a force on the mobile fittings and thus reducing the loading imposed on the circuit breakers operating mechanisms.

24
23
Vt
Stage 4 :
Complete opening
The arc is extinguished.

The molecules of SF6 gas, torn apart by the arc, are instantaneously reconstituted. The residual gas from the breaking is absorbed by the molecular sieve
(9); a few particles are deposited as a coating of dust, which has no effect on
the circuit breaker itself.

The FK 3-12 third-generation spring operating mechanisms have been designed as an integrated series. All mechanisms have the same functional units
and operate on the same principle. Dimensions and certain execution features
are dictated by the maximum closing energy for each model.

Energy store
Closing spring 70.25 stores energy to close the circuit breaker and to
charge trip spring 70.20. Surplus energy ensures that the circuit breaker
can be safely closed in all situations.
Trip spring 70.20 furnishes the energy necessary to trip the circuit
breaker. The trip spring may be in the operating mechanism or in the
circuit breaker, depending on the circuit breaker design.
Energy store
Charging mechanism
Motor 70.01 and gearing 79.04 serve to charge closing spring 70.25
Closing unit
On closing, the energy of closing spring 70.25 is transmitted to cam

disk 70.10 via closing chain 70.26, crank lever 71.43 and closing shaft
70.09. The cam disc drives main shaft 70.12 via roller lever 70.11. The
circuit breaker is closed and trip spring 70.20 charged via drive lever
70.18 and the linkage
Cam disc 70.10 controls the travel/time characteristic of the main contact during closing.
Tripping unit
If trip spring 70.20 is mounted in the operating mechanism, its energy is

transmitted to the circuit breaker via trip chain 70.19, main shaft 70.12
and drive lever 70.18.
The motion is retarde by trip dashpot 70.17 at the end of the tripping
process.
Latches
When closing spring 70.25 is charged, closing latch 70.05 supports it

through crank lever 71.43 and support pin 71.44.
When trip spring 70.20 is charged, trip latch 70.16 supports it by the
lever arm of roller lever 70.11 and main shaft 70.12.
Release device
Closing magnet 70.06 releases closing latch 70.05.

Trip magnet 70.15 releases trip latch 70.16.

Auxiliaire switch
Auxiliary switch 70.21 Coupled to main shaft 70.12 serves as a reference for the main contact for control, signaling and interlock functions
When the circuit breaker is closed, one contact of auxiliary switch 70.21
interrupts the closing coil circuit and thus prevents further electrical excitation.
When the circuit breaker is in the tripped position, one contact of auxiliary switch 70.21 breaks the operating release coil circuit and thus prevents further electrical excitation.
Motor limit switch
Motor limit switch 70.24 closes and interrupts the motor circuit. It also
performs interlock functions.
While closing spring 70.25 is being charged, one contact of motor limit
switch 70.24 interupts the closing coil circuit and thus prevents
premature electrical closing operation.
Mechanical closing
interlock
When the circuit breaker is closed, a lever coupled to main shaft 70.12
disables closing latch 70.05 and prevents any further release of the
closing system.
Indicators
Circuit breaker position indicator 70.52 displays the position of the main
contact (I or O).
Spring position indicator 70.31 displays the state (charged or discharged) of closing spring 70.25.
Auxiliairy devices
and tools
Mechanical manual releases 70.07, 70.13 permit switching operations

during field service.

Operating states
Note
The two illustrations below show the possible operating states and
sequences of an operating mechanism. These are characterised
mains by the position of the circuit breaker to which the mechanism is
attached, and by the position of the closing spring. The position of the
spring is always linked to the position of the circuit breaker. The
positions of the auxiliary switch and motor limit switch are important
secondary characteristics.
An operating mechanism remains in a steady operating state until its
position is changed by an external control command. It can then pass
through well-defined transient (unsteady) operating states.

Motor 70.01 starts as soon as the control voltage is imposed. It charges

closing spring 70.25 via gearing 79.04, chain wheel 71.42, crank lever
71.43 and closing chain 70.26. This process comes to an end when
crank journal 70.29 with attached closing chain 70.26 has passed top
dead point A and support pin 71.44 of crank lever 71.43 rests against
closing latch 70.05.
At the end of the charging process, the pair of winding levers 71.32 is
lifted though the (not shown) disconnecting device. Gearing 79.04 and
motor 70.01, which is shut off via motor limit switch actuating cam 70.22
and motor limit switch 70.24 can now run down freely without imposing
any load on closing latch 70.05.
Motor limit switch 70.24 has now moved so as to make the closing circuit, and spring position indicator 70.31 has moved to the closing
spring charged position.
If motor voltage drops out during the charging process, the return-stop
of the pair of winding levers 71.32 keeps chain wheel 71.42 from turning
blackward and thus prevents the unwinding of closing spring 70.25.

Cam disc 70.10 turns roller lever 70.11, which follows it, in the CLOSE
direction. The circuit breaker is closed via main shaft 70.12, operating
lever 70.18 and an attached linkage. At the end of the closing movement, after a 60 rotation, specially designed cam disc 70.10 brings
main shaft 70.12 to a safe, low-impact stop against trip latch 70.16 via
a lever arm of roller lever 70.11. At the same time, cam disc 70.10 has
moved away from roller lever 70.11 and the circuit breaker can be tripped.
In the course of the closing movement, trip spring 70.20 is charged via
trip chain 70.19.
The return-stop of pair of winding lever 71.32 keeps the fast gearing
stages from tracking the motion during the closing operation.
After closing shaft 70.09 has turned through approx. 180, crank journal
70.29 passes through bottom dead point B. The Kinetic energy still
possessed by crank wheel 70.30 is returned to closing spring 70.25

Working
The densimeter is fitted with two internal contacts. These contacts close successively if the gass density diminishes and determine 2 distinct thresholds.
These contacts are wired to the terminal block inside the cubicle and are usually left at the users disposal for the following use :
D Alarm pressure pae acts as a warning (topping up necessary).
D Minimum fonctional pressure for insulation pme must be used either to
lock the circuit--breaker in position or to cause automatic opening. The option
is chosen by the client in keeping with operating requirements.

SF6 gas monitoring
Gas pressure and density

Introduction
The electrical characteristics of switchgear depend on the density of SF6 gas

i.e. the mass of gas pumped into a compartment of a given capacity.
Constant
temperature
At constant temperature, an increase of gas density results in a higher gas

pressure against the walls of compartment.
Constant density
At constant density, with an invariable compartment volume, the pressure

changes in the same way as the temperature. Since the gas density remains
invariable owing to the fact that no modification occurs in the quantity of gas
or the volume of the relevant compartment, the electrical characteristics of the
switchgear will remain unchanged.
Conclusion
Since it is difficult to measure the gas density directly, it is essential to know

accurately its absolute pressure and temperature.

Pressure
Description
Diagram
The pressure of SF6 gas is mea- Standard pressure gauge
sured by of a standard pressure
gauge with a deformable diaphragm
actuating an indicating pointer.
One surface of the diaphragm is in
contact with the SF6 gas, while the
other is in contact with the atmosphere. The difference between the
Effective gas and the atmosphere is thus
measured, taking atmospheric
pressure as a reference. This is the
measurement of the effective pressure of the SF6 gas.
SF6
Atmospheric pressure
If the deformable diaphragm, one

surface of which is in contact with
the SF6 gas, blocks a volume where
a vacuum has been developed, the
pressure gauge measures the pressure difference between that of the
SF6 gas and the vacuum. Since the
latter is zero, the pressure gauge
measures the absolute pressure of
the gas.
The absolute pressure of the SF6
gas, independent of atmospheric
pressure, reflects the quantity of
Absolute gas introduced into the compartment and hence its density at the
present temperature.
This is measured by means of an
absolute pressure gauge which is
less generally used and more delicate than a effective pressure
gauge. This is the reason why a effective pressure gauge is used, provision being made for corrections
required by atmospheric pressure
variations resulting from atmospheric disturbances and differences of elevation.

Measuring density
Pressure units
D The international unit pressure is the Pascal (Pa), and hectopascal (hPa)
used for atmospheric pressure measurements.
D The practical unit is the bar (14.503 p.s.i.)
1 bar = 1 000 hPa = 14.5 psi
1 bar = 100 kPa
10 bar = 1 MPa
D Standard atmospheric pressure is equal to 1,013 hPa at sea level and an
air temperature of 20C (68F).
Measuring density
When it is not possible to directly measure density, this may be checked using
an industrial pressure gauge capable of measuring the effective pressure.
An effective pressure value corresponds to the rated density, determined for
normal atmospheric pressure (1,013 hPa) and an ambient temperature of
20C (68F).
For each pressure reading (filling, inspection of densimeter thresholds...), the
rated effective pressure should be corrected according to the ambient temperature and atmospheric pressure of the site at the time the reading is taken.
The real pressure is therefore :
Preal = Prated effective in accordance with temperature + Pp*

* Pp : correction in accordance with atmospheric pressure.

regulations concerning the contact resistance existing between the pads and
these connections.
However, the attention is pointed out on the importance lying with the quality
of these contacts, which depends on the assembling conditions (surface
condition, tightening torque for screws and bolts) and having these conditions

Subject
D This subject of this document is to describe the sequence of repair procedures necessary to correct any surface damage to the paint on the GCB
enclosure.
D It is not in the realms of the procedure to details repair to the enclosure
itself. The supervisor on site is to determine the severity of the damage to the
GCB enclosure (aluminium alloy). This procedure covers damage fom small
scratchs and scuffs. Greater damage than this would require the intervention
of a site inspector.
Used products
D
D
D
D
D
Process
INSPECTION AND CLEAN :

D Once it has been determined that the damage is limited to only surface
abrasion of the paint, the area of the damage will require cleaning and preparation.
Alcohol isopropanol.
Paint PU780 (FARBATHANNE NF) (colour RAL 9006).
Paintbrush.
Emery paper.
Not supplied : Cleaning rags, and gloves.
D Any mud, dirt or grease must be removed from around the area to be repaired.
D Mud and dirt can be cleaned and wiped off with wet rags and/or a sponge.
Grease will need to be removed with alcohol. Once complete, leave for a short
time to dry. Wipe down with a clean rag.
D Use the emery paper to clean up the damaged area.
D Wipe away metal dust with a clean rag.
PAINTING :
Open the pot of paint, stir if necessary, if the product has been in storage for
a long period of time.
Using the paintbrush, apply an even coat of paint over the damaged area.
Paint an area slightly larger than the damaged area, covering all the surface
touched by the emery cloth. Thus ensuring a good coverage of the exposed
area.
It have been determined that under normal circumstances one coat of paint
is all that is necessary. Should the client require it a second coat of paint may
be added. To this end please refer to the details printed on the paint pot concerning drying times between paint applications.

I -- Introduction
During the elimination phase for a High Voltage gas insulated circuit
breaker, at the end of its service life, the quality of the treatment of wastes
generated represents the essential environmental aspect.
This manual proposes, for each element of a High Voltage gas insulated
circuit breaker, the recommended method of elimination for the various
materials it comprises, as well as any possible precautions to be taken.

II -- General remarks
It is necessary to proceed with a maximum amount of dismantling, so as to
ensure the best recycling possible of the materials.
Various categories of materials can be distinguished depending on the
waste processing channel followed:
DS The SF6 gas to be recycled or reprocessed
DS The metals to be recycled (without taking into account any surface
treatment, paintwork or electro--silverplating)
DS Waste products to be destroyed by incineration or sent to the waste
dump depending on the channel available.

III -- Categories and treatment of the materials
1 -- Treatment of
SF6 gas
The SF6 gas will be recycled in accordance with the recommendations of

the IEC 60480 Standard.
However, when recovering the SF6 gas, it is important to respect the
following precautions:
-- Weigh the recipients used before and after filling, so as to ensure
traceability of the weights recovered
-- For each recipient, carry out a measurement of the purity of the SF6
gas and a search for the decomposition products (SO2, HF)
In case of absence of a local waste processing channel for the recycling of
SF6, we recommend a return to our site in Villeurbanne, where we
propose reprocessing via our European service providers.
2 -- Materials to be
recycled
Metals form the main constituent of a gas insulated substation.

The main types of metal making up a substation are:
-- Steel: steelwork structure, fasteners, electrical cubicle frames, etc.
-- Aluminium: moulded or mechanical welded enclosures, conductor bars,
electrodes, etc.
-- Bolted fasteners, threaded rods, rating and name plates
-- Bare copper: electrical contacts, etc.
-- Insulated copper: electrical cable
It is important to separate these different metals when dismantling the
substation at the end of its service life. In particular for small sub--assemblies made up of various materials.
In certain simple cases, it is sufficient to remove the fasteners ensuring the
assembly and, in other cases, specific instructions shall be given.
The aluminium and copper elements must, under no circumstances,
be mixed. Specific waste processing channels associated with these
materials do not allow for perfect separation during their processing.
In cases where it is impossible to separate them, the component
must be sent for incineration.

composition of a gas insulated substation, other than for a few very

specific cases.
These waste products mainly include:
-- Parts in epoxy resin: insulating cone in the case of circuit breakers with
insertion resistance
-- Plastic parts loaded with glass fibre (insulating tubes, etc.)
-- Seals and gaskets, rubber bands, roller bearings
-- Insulators (support or interrupting chamber) composites etc.
Where possible, we recommend that this type of waste be sent via
incineration channels with waste heat recovery.
4 -- Special wastes
Certain elements, due to their function or the material constituting them,

cannot be sent via a recycling or incineration channel.
They include the following components:
-- Insulating parts from the interrupting chamber
-- Absorbent molecular sieves
-- The active elements in electrical cubicles
-- Ceramic insulators (support or interrupting chamber) or those still called
porcelain, etc.
These waste products will follow specific channels and/or undergo certain
types of processing.
Precise instructions will be supplied for these types of components.

SF6 gas : Environmental impacts

Introduction
The SF6 gas contributes to the greenhouse effect:

The greenhouse effect is a natural phenomena, which by capturing a part of
the infra--red rays reflected from ground to space, enables the Earth to have
an average temperature of 15C.
The most abundant gases, which participate in the creation of this greenhouse effect are Water Vapour, Carbon Dioxide, Methane. However, since the
beginning of the industrial era, Man has released gases into the atmosphere,
which artificially increase the greenhouse effect.
Even if Sulphur Hexafluoride (SF6) is only present in the environment in low
levels, it creates a greenhouse gas, which has the capacity to absorb the
infra--red rays emitted by the Earth, which is 22,200 times higher than that of
Carbon Dioxide.
N.B. : 1 kg of SF6 gas emissions are, thus, the equivalent of
22,200 kg of Carbon Dioxide, which corresponds to the greenhouse effect gas waste released by a gasoline vehicle covering
120,000 km.
SF6 gas is used in High--and Medium--Voltage switchgear for its breaking and
insulation capacities.
The SF6 emissions can be generated in the equipment manufacturing, operating, maintenance and decommissioning processes. The losses are, either,
accidental (equipment breakage),or structural (equipments leaktightness).
Under no circumstances, SF6 gas should be released to the environment:
N.B. : In accordance with the International Kyoto Agreements,
European Regulations on fluorinated gases and IEC 62271--303
applicable standards (e.g.. IEC 61634, SF6 gas handling operations (filling, recovery) must be carried out by trained and qualified personnel, using tools and procedures enabling gas releases
to be limited.

SF6 gas safety rules

New SF6
D Sulphur Hexafluoride (SF6) is a colourless, odourless and non--toxic gas.

D However, it is a gas, which does not maintain life.
This gas is heavier than air and the lower parts such as trenches or cable
troughs can contain a strong concentration of this gas, which could lead to
asphyxia.
N.B. : The maximum permissible concentration on a workstation,
assuming that people stay there 8 hours a day, 5 days a week,
is 1000 ppm (i.e. 0.1%) of the volume. This very low level is a
standard value for all non--toxic gases, which are not usually
present in the atmosphere.
Every recipient containing new SF6 gas should be labelled as indicated

below:

SF6 gas safety rules (contd.)

Used SF6
D Under the influence of electrical arcing, SF6 gas can be broken down into
sub--products, which are more or less toxic and/or corrosive.
D Depending on their nature, these products can be irritant for the mucous
membranes, the respiratory tracts and the skin.
The SF6 decomposition products are brought to light, even when present in
very low levels, by a strong pungent and sulphur odour.
Every recipient containing used SF6 gas should be labelled:
Used SF6 gas will be stored in a pressurised, leak--tight container, which must
be resistant to decomposition products (valves, connectors and piping included) and will be regularly inspected in accordance with the standards in force.
The maximum quantity of polluted gas stored on site will be defined in accordance with the rules in force.

of the equipment in order to avoid a chemical re--combination with water.
-- Ventilation must be sufficient.
-- Use an appropriate vacuum cleaner equipped with a dust filter and wipe
with a clean, dry cloth.
-- Avoid shaking the cloth
-- Block the SF6 decomposition products (i.e. molecular sieve, cloth soiled
with a 3% sodium hydroxide solution during 24 h) and destroy as dangerous
waste.
D Avoid contact with soiled parts or dust (Individual Protection)
Soiled individual protection, soiled dusters, soiled molecular sieve, polluted
gas, must be destroyed as dangerous industrial waste. Polluted gas will be
incinerated or recycled depending on its level of pollution.

Action
De--energize apparatus, switch--off where applicable and earth.
Connect the servicing unit to the gas filling nipple by means of a
hose and using an adsorber filter.
Remove the SF6 gas using the vacuum pump. Depending on the
gas volume ; it can be stored for re--use as per indications of IEC
standard.
Fill gas compartment if possible with nitrogen or dry compressed air
at rated pressure and subsequently, discharge outdoors (if possible
through an adsorber filter).

Opening--up SF6 gas switchgear
Precautions to take
At the time of the opening--up SF6 gas switchgear, take the precautions
below :
DS Open--up SF6 switchgear only after the gas has been evacuated and the
pressure inside the apparatus has been reduced to that of atmospheric
pressure.
DS Put the ventilation system in operation or ensure that fresh air circulates
in some other manner when switchgear which contains decomposition
products is opened (e.g. circuit--breaker).
DS Wear suitable fresh air breathing apparatus if there is even the slightest
possibility that personnel working on the equipment could be put in danger
through inhalation of hazardous amounts of gas vapor from powdery
decomposition products.
DS Wear special overalls when working on opened--up SF6 switchgear which
contains powdery decomposition products. After completing work remove
overalls.
DS Avoid stirring--up dust and powder from SF6 switchgear. Difficult to remove
dust can be removed with dry non--fibrous rags. A vacuum cleaner should be
used to remove loose dust. The vacuum cleaner filter should be able to retains
particles of a least 1 m in size.
DS Items (such as rags, vacuum cleaner, throw--away--overalls, gloves, etc.)
which come in contact with the decomposition products must be collected and
neutralized so that the dust cannot be transferred. Before getting rid of these
items neutralize in a 3 percent soda solution for 24 hours. verify the degree
of neutralization after 24 hours. When soda is added, no bubbles should be
result. If there are bubbles repeat the neutralization.
DS Under all circumstances ensure that the decomposition products neither
come in contact with skin, eyes, clothes, nor that they are swallowed or
inhaled. Pay special attention to cleanliness of body, clothes and
work--bench. Dust or powder that comes in contact with skin must be washed
away with plenty of water.
It is advisable to wash face, neck, arms and hands with soap and plenty of
water before work--breaks and after stoppage of work.
DS Avoid eating, drinking, smoking or storing eatables in rooms or outdoors
near to opened SF6 switchgear which may contain arc--decomposed powder.

Recapitulation of important instructions
Reminder
Pure, non--contaminated SF6 gas is non--poisonous. Electrical discharges

and fault--switching arcs will give rise to different grades of poisonous
decomposition products. In small amounts gaseous decomposition products
produce -- within seconds and before any poisonous effects can take place
-- warning symptoms, such as an unpleasant piercing odor, nasal, mouth and
eye irritations, which enable working personnel to withdraw to safety. Solid
decomposition products (powdery residues from switching) can cause skin
irritations. SF6 is about five times heavier than air, and in the absence of
turbulence, results in the gas collecting just above ground level and causing
suffocation through a deficiency of oxygen.
Important
instructions
The table below recapitulates the important instructions to follow at the time
of handling of used SF6 gas and decomposition products :

Instruction
As soon as an unpleasant, piercing odor from decomposition products
becomes perceptible leave the substation room without delay. enter
the room only after thorough ventilation or when wearing suitable
oxygen breathing masks (with filtering or fresh air device).
After disturbances, enter the substation room only after having
thoroughly aired the room or when wearing independent of
ambient--air operating oxygen breathing masks, or alternatively, after
verifying by measurement that the ambient air contains at least 17%
volume of oxygen, especially if, one has to reckon with the
concentration of SF6 in hazardous amounts.
Enter rooms located below, and connected with the substation--rooms
after thorough ventilation only, or when wearing oxygen breathing
masks which operate independent of the ambient--air, or alternatively,
after having verified by measurement that the ambient air contains at
least 17% volume of oxygen.
Ensure that the room ventilation operates satisfactorily, whilst
maintenance work is being performed on SF6 switchgear (discharging
and filling of gas, opening and cleaning of equipment).
When working on opened SF6 switchgear protect skin against contact
with gas and avoid swallowing or inhaling of gas. Ensure body, clothing
and work--bench cleanliness. Wear special work--overalls and after
completion of work discard latter.
Wash skin which comes in contact with powder deposits with plenty of
water. Before work--breaks and after work wash face, neck, arms and
hands thoroughly with soap and plenty of water.
Do not stir--up powder deposits resulting from arc--switching. Remove
sticky powder with dry rags. Use suitable vacuum cleaner with
paper--filter to remove loose powder. Discard used items and
filter--bags in such a manner that powder deposit does not spread.
Before discarding neutralize used items.
Avoid eating, drinking and storing eatables in rooms with opened SF6
switchgear which contains powder deposits.
