GRID
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.

GRID
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.

of the bus bar (either atmospheric pressure or over--pressured). There is a
sealed connection (18) in the bottom of the sheath, used to pass the pole cas-
ing, fitted with its CB operating shaft, as well as the earthing switch and
start--up switch controls (as applicable).
An inspection port (25) on both sides of the enclosure is used to verify the
positioning of the earthing switch and(or) start--up switch contacts (as appli-
cable).
At each end of the bottom of the sheath there is a plate (19) used to pass the
cabling for the current and voltage transformers.
On the side there is a cover plate (20) used for the cables supplying the
start--up switch.
Also, on each side there are mounting points (21) for the current transformers
(as applicable).
The seal between the sheath and CB cover is achieved using a gasket (22)
fitted to the flange on the top of the sheath.
For outdoor use, the cover is provided with a sun-visor (47) which limits tem-
perature rise.

Special case For small currents, the thermal energy of the arc is too low to provide enough
of small currents excess pressure and significant thrust on the rear piston.
Consequently, the conventional autopneumatic effect developing in the vol-

Stage 4 : The arc has been extinguished.

End of opening A damper located in the spring mechanism absorbs the excess energy to
smoothly finish travel.
The SF6 molecules, separated by the arc, are re--formed instantaneously.
Residual gases left over from the interruption operation are absorbed by the
molecular sieve (14). A few powdery compounds are deposited in the form
of dust which is quite harmless for the circuit breaker.

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 At constant temperature, an increase of gas density results in a higher gas

temperature 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 atmo-
sphere. 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 pres-
sure of the SF6 gas.
SF6
Atmospheric pressure
If the deformable diaphragm, one

Absolute
surface of which is in contact with
pressure gauge
the SF6 gas, blocks a volume where
a vacuum has been developed, the
pressure gauge measures the pres-
sure 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 compart- SF6
ment and hence its density at the
present temperature. Vacuum volume
This is measured by means of an
absolute pressure gauge which is
less generally used and more deli-
cate than a effective pressure
gauge. This is the reason why a ef-
fective pressure gauge is used, pro-
vision being made for corrections
required by atmospheric pressure
variations resulting from atmo-
spheric disturbances and differ-
ences of elevation.
02--2011 M20--002EN03
SF6 gas monitoring
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 tem-
perature 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.

In order to prevent corrosion damage
due to formation of condensation, it is
mandatory that the heating circuit be
switched on.
Medium--term storage The apparatus must be stored on beams in a closed, but ventilated, flood---
(less than 2 years) proof place, placed on beams in stable transport position, packing open.
D In order to prevent corrosion damage due to formation of condensation, it

is mandatory that the heating circuit be switched on.
D Check for presence of SF6 gas in poles (refer to module Checking for pres-
ence of SF6 gas in poles).
PROTECT THE ELECTRICAL CABINET AGAINST DUST. (THE ELEC-

TRICAL CABINET MUST BE COVERED BUT NOT AIRTIGHT).
ANY CHANGE OF LOCATION OF THE APPARATUS (EVEN AFTER COM-

MISSIONING) SHOULD BE DONE AT A REDUCED PRESSURE OF
0.03 MPa.

Storage > 2 years
Closed and protected The material has to be installed in a suitable room and in the same conditions
storage area as an operational item of equipment (fixing to the floor, SF6 gas filling at the
assigned filling pressure for pre isolation).
D The anti--condensation resistance of cabinets and controls to be con-

nected.
NOTE : When the cabinet has no anti--condensation resistance, stor-
age has to take place in a room where there are no significant temper-
ature variations.
D It is advisable to carry out at least 2 CO cycles with SF6 gas at rated pres-
sure every 6 months following the procedure below in order to check the cor-
rect operation of the circuit breaker:
Step Action
1 Check the SF6 gas pressure. The SF6 gas pressure for mechanical
operation is Pre (rated pressure).
NOTE : No mechanical operation authorized with SF6 pressure

2 Close the supply circuit to the resetting motor (the motor starts and
set the closing spring).
3 Carry out 2 CO cycle, the equipment is in the OPEN position with

the closing spring set and the opening spring released.
4 Stop the resetting motor supply circuit.
5 Perform 1 new CO cycle. The equipment is then in the OPEN posi-

tion, with closing and opening springs released.

the resistance of apparatus main circuit must be, necessarily, mea-
sured at site.
This first measure will be used as reference to estimate the apparatus evolu-
tion in the time.
The read off measures asked will be consigned in the pre-commissioning test
report by checking them with acceptance criteria, joined to the manual.

Process The ALSTOM supply being restricted to the end pads of apparatus, flexible
connections and bolting hardware excluded, this manual does not give any
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
maintened times goes.
For more information purposes, no total contact resistance should exceed
0.5 m.

Presentation
Introduction After installation of the bay, completion of all earth circuit and electrical con-
nections, it is necessary to perform certain pre--commissioning inspections.
These inspections should be performed with the apparatus ready to be com-
missioned (energized), in other words.
D LV electrical circuits conforming, in voltage and type, with the low--voltage
diagrams and rating plate of the apparatus.
D SF6 envelopes at rated SF6 pressure.
NOTE : Rated pressure, pressure of equipment after SF6 gas filling.
D Flexible connections linking circuit--breaker to busbar installed.
Reminder The measurement values demanded hereafter are to be taken during the test
and inspection programme prior to commissioning and checked with the val-
ues of the acceptance criteria and checking points end of this sheet, then
entered in the pre-commissioning test report (RES..., see summary for refer-
ence)

Subject D This subject of this document is to describe the sequence of repair proce-
dures 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 Alcohol isopropanol.

D Paint PU780 (FARBATHANNE NF) (colour RAL 9006).
D Paintbrush.
D Emery paper.
D Not supplied : Cleaning rags, and gloves.
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 prepa-
ration.
D Any mud, dirt or grease must be removed from around the area to be repai-
red.
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 con-
cerning drying times between paint applications.

Make sure that the permanent resistors are working properly by checking that
these give off heat and that there are no overheating marks (a zone notorious
for this).
For thermally controlled resistors, check that energizing and de--energizing
takes place correctly at voltage supply terminals by means of a thermostat
(recommended thermostat temperature : +5C).
If necessary, change resistors found to be defective.

Lubrication
Principle No future lubrication will be necessary. The bearings and rollers have been
lubricated in our workshops with special grease :
ASEOL SYLITEA 4--018
This grease can easily endure very low temperatures and has an excellent
resistance to ageing. So that its qualities are not modified during use, it is pro-
hibited to :
D Mix this grease with any other lubricant.

D Lubricate later with any other oil.
D Spray parts of the apparatus with a protective liquid against corrosion or
with any kind of lubricating oil.
Mixture with other lubricants can cause the layer of grease to become too
hard.

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.
02--2011 G80--000EN02
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.
DS Special wastes
02--2011 G80--000EN02
III -- Categories and treatment of the materials
1 -- Treatment of The SF6 gas will be recycled in accordance with the recommendations of
SF6 gas 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 Metals form the main constituent of a gas insulated substation.

recycled
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.
02--2011 G80--000EN02
III -- Categories and treatment of the materials (contd.)
3 -- Waste products to This type of waste includes the rest of the materials used in the
be destroyed by composition of a gas insulated substation, other than for a few very
incineration 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.

Management of SF6 gas
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 green-
house 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 green-
house 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, opera-
ting, 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 opera-
tions (filling, recovery) must be carried out by trained and quali-
fied personnel, using tools and procedures enabling gas releases
to be limited.
02--2011 G80--001EN02
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:

doctor immediately (if possible show the doctor
this label).
S61 -- Avoid release to the environment. Refer
to special Instructions / Safety Data Sheet.
S 63 If inhaled, move the victim out of the
contaminated area and keep them still.
S51 -- Use only in well ventilated areas.
02--2011 G80--001EN02
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 inclu-
ded) 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 accor-
dance with the rules in force.

Evacuation of SF6 gas apparatus
Principle and The table below gives the principle of evacuation of SF6 gas apparatus and
precautions precautions to take :
Step Action
1 De--energize apparatus, switch--off where applicable and earth.
2 Connect the servicing unit to the gas filling nipple by means of a
hose and using an adsorber filter.
3 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.
4 Fill gas compartment if possible with nitrogen or dry compressed air
at rated pressure and subsequently, discharge outdoors (if possible
through an adsorber filter).
02--2011 G81--001EN03
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.
02--2011 G81--001EN03
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 The table below recapitulates the important instructions to follow at the time
instructions of handling of used SF6 gas and decomposition products :
No. Instruction
1 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).
2 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.
3 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.
4 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).
5 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.
6 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.
7 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.
8 Avoid eating, drinking and storing eatables in rooms with opened SF6
switchgear which contains powder deposits.
