2. COMPONENT DESCRIPTION
2.1 MV Cable Termination Chamber
Cables enter the chamber through a gland plate to reduce the ingress of water and
dust.

Copper bus bars, fitted with M16 bolts, are provided for connecting the MV cables.
There is an earth bar which links all components throughout the enclosure.

2.2 MV Switchgear Cubicle

This is a 2-section module, manufactured by ABB to the following specification:-

H.1 C
SafePlus 36 C is a cable switch module with a two position load break switch and
earthing switch, bus bars, interlocking and earth bar.

1 SafePlus Type C: Cable switch 36kV, 630A, 20kA

1 Snap action mech. For manual operation
1 Cable bushings 400 Series bolted, 630A, standard
1 Cable cover standard
1 Capacitive voltage indication CAPDIS S1+ VDS – LR System
1 Aux. switch for load break switch position 2NO + 2NC

H.2 V / H.3V

SafePlus 36 V is a vacuum circuit breaker module with vacuum circuit breaker, two
position isolator/earthing switch, bus bars, interlocking, and earth bar and stored spring
energy mechanism (A-mech.).

1 SafePlus Type V: Vacuum circuit breaker 36kV, 630A, 20kA

1 Control voltage, motor operation 24 V DC
1 Optical indication of latch function

Additional equipment delivered separately or mounted in respective panel.

1 Cable support bars, standard for 1-way unit

1 Manometer
1 Voltage tester Type VIM-3
1 Operating handle

2.3 Main Transformer

The transformer is housed at one end of the enclosure and accessed by removable
end. The base of the enclosure is continuously welded to form a ‘Bund’ in the event of
cooling oil leakage.

Additional cooling is provided by fans mounted in the side of the enclosure. Three tap
change switches are fitted to the top of the transformer, as shown in Drawing DP1062
or 14 CTMU 36 H 54292.

Protection devices for the transformer and access doors are wired to the control panel.

The transformer protection circuit consists of:-

Transformer Access Door Open – L1

Gas/Oil Trip – L2

Over Pressure Trip – L3

Over Temperature Trip – L4

Activation of any of these signals will trip the MV.

Indication Only:-

Transformer Temperature Rising Alarm – L5

MV Breaker Tripped Indication – L6

LV Isolator 1 Open – L7

LV Isolator 2 Open – L8

LV Isolator 3 Open – L9

SAFETY

The access door into the transformer section is fitted with a door switch ‘DSW1’. If the
supplies are live this will activate the shunt trip and open the breaker MCB1 (2), should
the door be opened.

There is fitted an Emergency Stop button on the transformer control panel. Activation of
this button will activate the shunt trip and open the breakers MCB1 and MCB2, and stop
the rotation of the cooling fans.

Warning: - The Emergency Stop does not isolate the Test Supply or the
Auxiliary Supply; this must be done at source.

Note: - The 120V 1-Phase auxiliary supply for the internal lighting and heating, if
connected is not affected by the Emergency Stop.
