4.2 Withdrawable Trucks 4.2.1 Structure of Withdrawable truck

The frame of withdrawable truck is also made up of steel sheet by means of CNC technology. The insulation matching and mechanical lock between the withdrawable trucks and Switchgears are of safety, reliability and flexibility. According to the different application purposes, the withdrawable trucks are divided into the withdrawable circuit-breaker truck, voltage transformer truck, metering truck, isolation truck etc., and the trucks of same configuration are absolutely interchangeable. The withdrawable truck inside the Switchgear is preset for the dis-connecting position/testing position and service position, and each position is respectively fitted with the locating device for the reliable interlock. The operation for trucks must follow the procedures for interlock against erroneous operation, and various withdrawable trucks are easily and flexibly cranking in and out, suitable for various personnel operations. When the withdrawable truck needs to be moved away from the Switchgear, a special service truck is used for easy moving it away for various inspection and maintenance; due to the intermediate design of the withdrawable truck, the truck are featured of small dimensions, convenient inspection and maintenance.

4.2.2 Circuit breaker truck

The circuit breaker truck is equipped with the vacuum circuit breaker and other auxiliary parts. When the withdrawable truck was pushed into the circuit breaker compartment by means of a service truck, the part is reliably locked to the disconnected / test position, simultaneously the location indicator shows its location. Only when the withdrawable truck is safely locked, the cranking mechanism can be rotated to the service postion, when reaching the service position, the crank handle can not advance any more, and the correspoinding indicator shows its location. The mechanical interlock could reliably endure the withdrawable truck only stay at the service position or test position when the circuit breaker performs the closing or opening operation; and only the circuit breaker is at opening position, the withdrawable truck is movable.

Notes:

* The value of 50kV and 3s should be in accordance with Standard IEC62271-100,2001. ** At 3150A rated current, the circuit breaker should be forced ventilation. *** In accordance with Standard GB1984-2003. E2 Grade. All technical data is strictly derived from the type test, not the theoretical value.

4.3 Compartments inside the Switchgear 3.4 Derivative scheme for the standard panel (see Appendix I)
The main components of the Switchgear have their independent compartments, i.e. circuit breaker compartment B, busbar compartment A, cable compartment C, meter compartment D. the degree of protection for each compartment is IP2X; except for the meter compartment, other three high voltage compartments are fitted with the pressure relief channels. Thanks to the intermediate structure, the cable compartment is greatly enlarged, so this version of panel is able to connect multiple cables.

AMS
4.3.1 Withdrawable truck compartment B
Both sides of compartment is fitted with travel rails for the withdrawable truck to move among the isolation position/test position and service position. The partition (the shutters) of the isolation bushing is installed at the back wall of the circuit breaker compartment. During the withdrawable circuit breaker moves to the service position from the disconnected position/ test position , the shutters in front of the top and bottom isolation bushings are automatically opened by means of being actuated by the withdrawable circuit breaker; when moving to the reverse direction, the shutters are automatically closed, till the withdrawable circuit breaker goes back to somewhere the isolating bushing are completely covered and form the efficient isolation, at the same time, due to the separate top and bottom shutters, the shutter which is live can be individually locked for test and maintenance to protect the operator against the live parts. When the circuit breaker compartment door is closed, the withdrawable truck can still perform various normal operations. Through an inspection window on the circuit breaker compartment door, the position of the withdrawable circuit breaker inside the compartment and the indicators for ON/OFF and CHARGED/DISCHARGED can be observed. b) When the earthing switch is at the opening position, the withdrawable circuit breaker can be moved from the test/disconnected position to the service position. Only when the withdrawable part is at the test/disconnected position, the earthing switch can be switched on ( the earthing switch can be fitted with the voltage indicator), thus to protect the earthing switch from being erroneously closed when the part is live and circuit breaker being closed when the earthing switch is on. c) When the earthing switch is at the opening position, the cable compartment door can not be opened to avoid entering the live compartment. d) When the withdrawable circuit breaker is surely at the test/service position and no control voltage is on, the switch can only be manually opened, can not be closed. e) When the withdrawable circuit breaker is at the service position, the secondary plug is locked. f ) All panels can be fitted with the electrical interlock system. This version of panel can also be fitted with the magnetic interlock on the earthing switch mechanism to improve its reliability. The customers could choose this function according to their requirements.

4.3.2 Busbar compartment A

The main busbar is jointly connected in a single panel or laid in series from panel to panel, see Figure 6. It is held by means of the branch conductor and isolating bushing. The connection of the main busbar and branch conductors has a rectangular or D-shaped cross-section. For the large current rating, double busbars are used; the branch busbar is connected to the isolating bushing and main busbar by the means of the bolt connection and no any support. For some special needs, the busbar is covered by means of shrink-on bushings and bolt insulating sleeves as well as the end caps; the main busbars between panels are fixed by means of bushings so that moderate air is remained between the connecting busbars for buffer purpose. When arc-fault occurs inside the panel, air buffer protects the panel against being penetrated and melt, meanwhile, the bushings could efficiently limit the accident only within the compartment, not spread to other panel.

4.5 Pressure Relief System

The withdrawable circuit breaker compartment, busbar compartment and cable compartment are all fitted with the pressure relief channel on their tops, when the fault arc happens inside the circuit breaker or busbars, the air pressure inside the panel rises up, the special seal washer on the door obturates the front panel, then the relief metal cover on the top of the panel is automatically opened to relieve air pressure as to guarantee the personnel and equipment safety.

4.6 Interlock between Pilot Plug and Withdrawable Truck

The secondary wiring connection between the panel and the withdrawable circuit breaker is realized with a pilot plug, the movable contact is connected to the withdrawable circuit breaker with a nylon extension bushing, and the socket is fitted on the right top of the withdrawable truck compartment inside the panel. When the withdrawable circuit breaker is at the test/disconnected position, the pilot plug can be plugged in or unplugged; when the withdrawable circuit breaker is at the service position, with the mechanical interlock, the pilot plug is locked and can not be removed. Because the switching mechanism is locked by the electromagnet, the withdrawable circuit breaker can not be switched on till the pilot plug is plugged in.

4.3.3 Cable compartment C

This type of panel uses the intermediate structure to make the cable compartment have enough large space, so the current transformer, voltage transformer, arrester and other components can be installed at the rear of the cable compartment, the earthing switch is fixed on the mounting plate of the isolating bushing; when removing the withdrawable parts and horizontal partition, there is enough space for the operator entering the panel for installation and maintenance; the cable is connected to the conductors in the cable compartment, up to 1-3 single-core cables can be connected, if necessary, the removable non-metal floor cover with split or insulated metal floor cover is installed on the bottom of the panel to guarantee the flexible operation.

4.7 Power Indicators

The panel can be fitted with the optional parts which could test the primary circuit works or not, i.e. the power indicator. This device contains the high voltage sensors and portable indicators two units, the sensors are fixed beside the busbar or incoming wirings, and the socket of the indicators is fixed in the meter compartment. This device not only indicates the load status of the high voltage circuit, but also matches with the lock magnet to perform the protection measures like forcibly locking the switch handle, preventing the earthing switch with load being operated and erroneous entering the compartment which is live, etc. as to improve the fault-protection function of the matching products.

4.3.4 Low voltage compartment D

The low voltage compartment contains the protection relay components, meters, power indicators and special secondary devices. If the secondary devices are not intended for door installation, they can be mounted on DIN RAILS for any flexible subsequent changes to the wirings. The control wirings are laid in a duct where enough space is preset; they are covered to make the secondary wirings isolated from the high voltage compartment. The left wiring duct is preset for the incoming or outgoing wirings, and the wirings inside the panel are on the right side of the panel.

4.8 Anti-dew and anti-corrosion measure

In order to avoid the dew damage due to the environment with large humidity change. The heater is fixed respectively in the circuit breaker compartment and cable compartment so that the device can be used in above-mentioned environments and to protect the equipments from corrosion.

4.4 Interlock protection against erroneous operation

The panel contains the reliable interlock mechanism to meet the five protection requirements and efficiently protect both personnel and equipment. The functions of interlock are as follows: a) Only when the withdrawable circuit breaker is at the test/service position, the mechanical interlock of the charging protection half shaft can be released, and the circuit breaker can be switched on. After switching on, the withdrawable truck can not be moved to avoid operating the circuit breaker which is live.

4.9 Earthing device

The earthing bar with 8x30mm dimension is independently fixed in the cable compartment; it goes through the series panels and is well connected to all panels. This earthing bar is for the applications that the components are directly earthed. Meanwhile, being made up of aluminum-Zinc steel sheet, the whole panel is in good earthing condition to guarantee the personnel and equipment safety.

5. Assembly and Commissioning

5.1 Foundation styles
The construction for the foundation of the switchgear panel should comply with the specific require ments (of the Power Construction and Acceptance Technical Specification). The installation foundation for the panel is constructed by means of secondary concrete injection. The primary construction is to install the supporting parts, i.e. angle steel, rectangular steel or channel steel parts, and the secondary construction is to inject the supplementary concrete layer on the ground with 60mm thickness, when injecting with concrete, the height of concrete should be 1-3mm lower than the supporting parts. In the construction design, the height of base iron and moderate allowances are considered when scaling the foundation, and steel plate is laid in every 1-1.5m straight distance along the foundation frame. See Figure 3. Quality must be guaranteed for the foundation installation. The technical standard for foundation is 1m tolerance per square meter. The foundation frame is the weldment made up of channel steel and angle steel; the basic dimen sions for the frame and cable channel arrangement see Figure 4 and 5. No strict requirements for the height of channel steel are specified, 5 and 8 channel steels are options. The extension length of the channel steel of the foundation frame should be equal to the main frame of the panel, i.e. 1620mm. The total length of the frame is determined by the panel arrangement and the set number of the panels in each row. Figure 4 is the dimensions for the foundation frames with two kinds of panel widths.

5.2 Assembly of the switchgear panels

For a single row of panel arrangement, the suitable passway in front of the panels is 2.5m; for the two rows of panels, the distance is approx. 3m. According to the engineering requirements and drawing notes, the panels should be fixed at the specific positions. If it is a long row of panels (containing above 10 sets), the installation of panels should be started from the middle. During transportation, the special transportation tools are used, e.g. lifter or forklift, etc. but never to use the roller crowbar, and it is forbidden to put the withdrawable circuit breaker inside the panel when transportation. The withdrawable circuit breaker (or other withdrawable trucks) can only be pushed into the panel after the panel is completely built up.

The installation procedures are as follows:

If the GREEN switch-off indicator is observed through the observation window on the panel, the circuit breaker is determined as the switch-off status, at this time, when the secondary circuit is plugged in, the Switch-OFF indicator on the metering panel lights on. If the RED switch-on indicator is observed through the observation window on the panel, the circuit breaker is determined as the switch-on status, at this time, when the secondary circuit is plugged in, the Switch-ON indicator on the metering panel lights on.

6.3 Special Notes and Precautions

Besides the related procedures and requirements for the switchgear maintenance, the following notes are recommended: According to the requirements of the Instruction Manual for the vacuum circuit breaker, check the circuit breaker condition and make necessary commissioning. Check the withdrawable propelling mechanism and its interlock to meet the relative requirements in the instruction manual. Check the main circuit contacts, clear off the old grease on the contacts and inspect on them for any damage, check for the spring force change and abnormal oxidized coating phenomena caused due to the overhigh temperature. If any above-mentioned, treatment should be taken immediately. Check the auxiliary circuit contacts for any abnormal phenomena, do necessary maintenance. Check the earthing circuit, like earthing contacts, main earthing wire and transition earthing wire, etc. to guarantee the continuous conduction. Check all fasteners, if any loose, tighten them immediately.

6.1.2 Operation of switchgear panel with earthing switch for circuit breaker

But the following items should be taken care of only during the operation inside the panel and earthing switch operation: a) Operation of the withdrawable part inside the panel When pushing the withdrawable part to the service position, except for complying with the requirements put forward in 6.1.1, make sure the earthing switch is at the switch-off status before carrying out the next operation b) Operation of earthing Switch-ON and Switch-OFF For earthing switching on, firstly make sure the withdrawable part has already been moved back to the test/disconnected position, remove the cranking handle, then press down the interlock plate near the hole of the earthing switch, insert the operating lever of the earthing switch and rotate it with 180 in a clockwise direction to switch on the earthing switch.

7. Transportation and Storage

Cares are taken for the following items during transportation and storage:
a) Do not dump, reverse and shock, far away from fire force. b) Protect against rain and moisture. c) Do not randomly remove the electrical products and components. d) Never stack the panels.

6.1.3 Operation of ordinary isolation panel

The isolation truck has no functions of making and breaking current, so it is restricted to operate the withdrawable part under load. During the operation of the isolation truck inside the panel, the related circuit breaker must be switched off (see 6.1.1"d)"), then its auxiliary contact is switched to connect with the related lock electromagnet of the isolation truck, only at this time, the isolation truck can be operated. The operation procedures are same as those for the withdrawable circuit breaker.

8. Supplied Documents
a) Product Certification of Quality b) Packing list c) Factory Test Report d) Instruction Manual e) Equipment List f) Secondary Wiring Diagram g) Catalogue of drawings and list of equipments;

6.2 Notes on interlock

The main interlock function of this switchgear panel is the mechanical interlock, assisted with the supplementary electrical interlock function to realize the five-protection interlock function of the switchgear panel. However, the operator should not neglect the operation precedures. Only when the procedures are combined with the technical measures, the interlock mechanism can be efficiently functioned to avoid any accident. The interlock functions of the switchgear panel are mostly realized synchronously during the normal operations, no additional procedures are needed. When the operation is blocked (e.g. the resistance for operation is becoming more and more), firstly check for possibility of any faulty operation, and any imposed operation is restricted to avoid the equipment damage and even misoperation accident. Some interlocks can be urgently unlocked for some special needs (e.g. the interlock of the lower panel door and earthing switch). The use of the urgent unlocking must be cautions, should not be frequent. When in use, necessary protection measures must be taken, and the interlock should be immediately resumed as soon as the urgency is solved.
