Main Products

126kV /72.5kV Single-phase-enclosure type GIS

126kV/72.5kV GIS

The product is a compact GIS designed for system voltages up to 126kV and for rated
short-circuit currents up to 31.5kA. The circuit breaker is operated by a spring operating
mechanism which is used for three pole operation.

FEATURES
1 Compact design
It is one of the most compact designs of single phase enclosure GIS in the world. The width of a typical bay
is 1200mm or 1500mm. The inner conductors and enclosures are made of corrosion-resistant aluminum. A
bay with double busbar weights approx. 2,500 kg.

2 Superior interrupting capability

The circuit breaker is equipped with self-energized interrupter that is characterized by a self-adapting ability
breaking of both small and large currents.
These breakers can cope with all known switching phenomena. Their efficiently designed interrupter clears
both the severe rate of rise of the recovery voltage of short-line faults and the high recovery voltage peak of
out-of-phase interruption. In magnetizing current switching, the overvoltage is less than twice the applied
voltage. No restrike or reignition occurs in charging current switching.

3 Reduced maintenance work

Since the spring operating mechanism requires neither compressed air nor hydraulic fluid, inspection and
maintenance work is minimized. Also, these breakers seldom require inspection since SF6 gas deterioration
and arcing contact wear, owing to arc breaking, are negligible.

4 Perfect assembling and testing conditions and minimum work at site

The GIS is assembled and tested against similar conditions of assembling site, packed in transport unit after
tested, for easy and convenient transport and minimizing work at site.

5 Lower leakage of SF6 gas

The mode of separated monitoring is used in the SF6 gas system of GIS, doing away with SF6 valves and SF6
piping system. New self-sealed adapters and SF6 gas densimeters are used to get rid of the possibility of SF6
leakage outside the GIS, lowering the SF6 gas leakage.

STRUCTION

In the GIS all elements are single phase enclosure except the main bus which is three phase enclosure. The
enclosure is coaxial with the inner conductor supported by the insulators or spacers. Tulip contactors are
used to adjoin the inner conductors together. Cable sealing end or SF6 outdoor bushing can be used to
connect GIS with overhead lines or transformers.
The auxiliary electrical units required for command input, warning, locking, SF6 density monitoring etc are
accommodated in local control panel of each bay.
