Design philosophy

SafeRing and SafePlus ABB switchgear for secondary distribution Secondary distribution switchgears have been subject to a significant development the past 20 years,resulting in increased functionality and smaller dimensions. The traditional switching cells are substituted with complete switchgear systems. Specific functions as grounding, disconnecting, cable connections, busbar extension, protection and switching have become integrated features in compact functional units. Compact switchgear systems meet customers MV application needs. ABB has always been a part of this development. The current ABB SafePlus range satisfies the most complex system specifications. The most unique specialisation is the development of the cable ring switchgear. The numerous public distribution substations requested a unified switching functionality which evolved into the Ring Main Unit concept. ABB SafeRing range is one major contributor to this specialisation. Two Products One range ABB SafeRing is adapted to the needs in the immense utility distribution network. ABB SafePlus offers more in terms of flexibility and electrical capacity. Both switchgear offer the same customer interface. Customers involvement The applied functionality in ABB SafeRing and SafePlus is a result of input from customers all over the world. Key customers are continuously involved with ABB design staff to ensure optimized switchgear operation. The functionality will always find its background from customer demands. Personnel safety and service Safety is not only a specification and rating issue, but also a real life experience. Standards and associated testing will disclose weakness at time of testing. ABB takes this further to be an objective related to durability and repetitive manufacturing quality.

All products are manufactured in accordance with ISO 9001. The latest edition of relevant IEC standards will always apply to our continuous product development and test program. Integrated functionality is a key objective to reduce the number of moving components, further reducing the risk of any mechanical defect. We are responsible for the environment The location for manufacturing SafeRing and SafePlus is Norway. Norways green policy contributes to focus on environmental factors in manufacturing as well as over the switchgears life span. All products are manufactured in accordance with our ISO 14001 certification. Recycling is confirmed at a 97% level. To simplify this process we will continuously along with our partners develop routines for handling at end of life. Plastic parts are individually marked to simplify the recycling process. Solutions for elimination of gas emission in the rare event of a fault can be supplied. Modern - development and manufacturing Numerical simulations together with long experience will ensure compact and robust design. Dielectric simulations will ensure that compactness will not influence the dielectric capability. The combination of design techniques, experience and the most modern production technology guarantee state of the art products and durability. Complete solutions one supplier Complex applications involving remote control and monitoring can now be supplied from one supplier. This makes large scale implementation feasible, and will simplify engineering and procurement. The control and monitoring unit available for SafeRing is located behind the front cover. This option is also readily available for retrofit, while such demands normally evolve after the switchgear is in service.

Each module has a separate cable compartment which is divided from the others by means of partition walls. These partition walls can easily be removed, allowing a comfortable access for connection of cables. A vertical partition wall is fitted to divide the cable compartment(s) from the rear side of the switchgear / ring main unit. In case of an arc fault inside the SF6 tank, followed by an opening of the pressure relief in the bottom of the tank, this partition wall will prevent the hot gases blowing out from the pressure relief to enter the cable compartments. Side covers are made of 2 millimeter hot rolled steel and powder painted with colour RAL 7035.

Cable switch module

The cable switch (C-Module) is a three positioning switchdisconnector and earthing switch using SF6 gas as an arc quenching medium. The switch positioning is close open earthed. In the open position the switch satisfies the disconnector requirements.

C-module equipped with arc suppressor (optional equipment) and cable test bushings (optional equipment).

26 Cable switch module | Product Catalogue

Vacuum circuit-breaker module

The vacuum circuit-breaker (V-Module) has vacuum bottles as interrupters of the current. In series with the circuit-breaker main circuit is connected a three-position disconnector/earthing switch. The operation between vacuum circuit breaker and disconnector/earthing switch is mechanically interlocked.

Product catalogue | Vacuum circuit-breaker module 27

Switch-fuse module

The switch-fuse (F-module) has a three positioning switch disconnector and earthing switch identical to the cable switch (C-module). By means of the fuse tripping device it operates as a switchfuse combination. There is a double earthing switch which in earthed position connects earth to both sides of the fuse-links simultaneously. Both earthing switches are operated in one operation. The switch-fuse and earthing switch is mechanically interlocked to prevent hazardous access to the fuse-links. The lower cover which gives access to the fuse-links is also mechanically interlocked with the earthing switch.

3-ways unit consisting of two C-modules and one F-module. Both C-modules are equipped with arc suppressor (optional equipment) and cable test bushings (optional equipment).

Cable bushings

The connection of the HV-cables is made by cable bushings. The bushings are made of cast resin with moulded-in conductors. In addition, a screen is moulded in to control the electrical field and is also used as the main capacitor supplying the voltage indicating systems. ABB has produced bushings for SF6 switchgears since 1985. Up to date production facilities and highly advanced robots and test equipment ensure the high quality required for each single device. A very high number of units have been installed worldwide in distribution networks, power stations and industrial complexes. Used together with full-screened connectors an ideal solution for areas with a history of humidity or condensation problems is achieved. The bushings are designed according to Cenelec EN 50181, EDF HN 52-S-61 and IEC 60137. There are 5 different cable bushings: Interface A (200 series with plug-in contact, In=200A) Interface B (400 series with plug-in contact, In=400A) Interface C (400 series with M16 bolted contact, In=630A) Interface C (400 series with M16 bolted contact) and inte grated voltage and current sensors (In=630A) Interface D (600 series with M16 bolted contact, In=630A)

Product catalogue | Cable bushings 29

Arc suppressor

The arc suppressor is an optimal quick-make short circuit device with a mechanical pressure detector that can be installed with each incoming feeder inside the sealed SF6 tank of the SafeRing and SafePlus switchgear. If an arc fault should occur inside the SF6 tank the pressure detector of the arc suppressor will automatically trip the short circuit device of the incoming feeder(s) within milliseconds, thereby transforming the arc fault into a bolted fault. The arc is extinguished without any emission of hot gases and the bolted short circuit will be interrupted by the upstream circuit-breaker. No links or release mechanisms are installed outside the tank. Corrosion and any environmental influences are therefore prevented, giving optimum reliability. The pressure detector is insensitive to pressure changes due to variation in atmospheric temperature or pressure as well as external phenomena such as vibrations or shocks. The arc suppressor will operate for short-circuit currents in the range of 1kArms to 21kArms and it will reduce the generated arc energy to less than 5% of the arc energy released during an arcing time of 1 sec. A signalling device (1NO) will indicate local or remote the tripping of one or more arc suppressors. Since the system is self-contained, an internal arc fault will have no impact on the surroundings. No arc fault tests have to be repeated in combination with channel release systems or transformer stations. The costs of the cleaning work which has to be done after an internal arc fault when the release flap has opened, are reduced to zero.

30 Arc suppressor | Product Catalogue

Completely sealed system

SafeRing and SafePlus use SF6 gas (Sulphur hexafluoride) as insulation and quenching medium. The SF6 is contained in a welded stainless steel tank, which is hermetically sealed. The pressure system is defined as a sealed for life system with an operating life time exceeding 30 years. The leakage rate is less than 0,1% per year. In order to guarantee a reliable and tight welding, all welding work is carried out by computer controlled robots. Electrical and mechanical bushings penetrating the tank are clamped and sealed to the tank by high quality O-rings. The mechanical bushing has in addition a rotating shaft which connects the shaft of the switch to the corresponding shaft of the mechanism. The rotating shaft is sealed by a double set of gas seals. All SF 6-tanks have to pass a leakage test, before gas filling. Leakage test and gas filling are done inside a vacuum chamber. The first step in the leakage test is to evacuate all air inside both SF 6-tank and vacuum chamber simultaneously. Then the SF 6-tank is filled with Helium. Due to the characteristics of Helium this test will detect absolutely all possible leakages. If the SF 6-tank passes this test, the Helium will be evacuated and replaced by SF 6. The SF6-tank has a degree of protection of IP67, and can be immersed into water and still maintain all functions in a satisfactory way.

Product catalogue | Completely sealed system 31

Cable test bushings

As an option, both C- and De-modules can be equipped with cable test bushings situated behind the lower front cover. This cover can be interlocked against the earthing switch to avoid access to the cable test compartment before earthing switch is in closed position. When these bushings are mounted, cable insulation test can easily be done according to the following procedure:

Principle sketch for testing: 1. Close the earthing switch after having checked the voltage indicators 2. Open compartment cover 3. Install the injection device onto the access terminals 4. Open the removable earthing bridge 5. Perform cable testing 6. Re-install the earthing bridge 7. Remove the injection device 8. Close compartment cover 9. Open the earthing switch If the switchgear is not equipped with cable test bushings, cable testing is possible directly at the cable connectors if they are designed for this purpose, please follow the suppliers instruction.

Mechanisms and interlocks

C-module

F-module

V-module

All operating mechanisms are situated outside the SF6-tank behind the front covers with degree of protection of IP2X. This gives the opportunity of easy access to all operating mechanisms if retrofit or service should be required. The speed of operation of these mechanisms is independent of the operator. To prevent access to cable compartment before earthing switch is in closed position, all mechanisms can as an option be supplied with mechanical interlocks which make it impossible to remove the cable compartment covers. It will then also be impossible to operate load break / disconnector switch to open position before cable compartment cover is mounted properly. Each mechanism is equipped with a padlocking device. When adding a padlock to this device, the access to operate the mechanism will be impossible. This device has three holes with diameter 9 millimeter.

Mechanisms front view. SF6-tank with operating mechanisms.

All operating mechanisms are equipped with position indicators for all switches. In order to achieve true indication, indicators are directly connected to the operating shafts of the switches inside the SF6-tank, please see shafts shown with red colour on next page. Operating handle has an anti-reflex system which prevents an immediate re-operation of the switch.

Cable switch module and Busbar sectionalizer with load break switch (C-mechanism) The mechanism (3PKE) has two operating shafts; the upper one for the load break switch and the lower one for the earthing switch. Both shafts are single spring operated and operate one common shaft which is directly connected to the three position switch (CFE-C) inside the SF6-tank. When both load break switch and earthing switch are in open position, the switch satisfies the specifications of disconnector. Due to the mechanical interlock between the upper and lower operating shaft, it is impossible to operate the load break switch when earthing switch is in earthed position or operate the earthing switch when the load break switch is in closed position. Switch-fuse module (F-mechanism) The mechanism (3PAE) has two operating shafts; the upper one for the load break switch and the lower one for the earthing switch. The upper one operates two springs; one for closing and one for opening. Both springs are charged in one operation. By means of mechanical push buttons it is then possible to close and open the load break switch. The opening spring is always charged when the load break switch is in closed position and will be ready to open the load break switch immediately if one of the HV-fuse-links blow. The blown fuse-link(s) has/have to be replaced before the operator will be able to close the load break switch again. According to IEC 60282-1, all three fuse-links should be replaced, even if only one or two have operated. The lower shaft is single spring operated. Both operating shafts operate one common shaft which is directly connected to the three position switch (CFE-F) inside the SF6-tank. Due to the mechanical interlock between the upper and lower operating shaft, it is impossible to operate the load break switch when earthing switch is in earthed position or operate the earthing switch when the load break switch is in closed position. It will also be impossible to get access to the fuse compartment before earthing switch is in closed position.

SF6

Air Vacuum circuit breaker and busbar sectionalizer with circuit breaker (V-mechanism) These two modules have two mechanisms; the upper one (2PA) with one operating shaft is for circuit breaker and the lower one (3PKE) with two operating shafts is for disconnector and earthing switch. The upper mechanism has two operating springs; one for closing and one for opening. Both springs are charged in one operation. By means of mechanical push buttons it is then possible to close and open the circuit breaker. The opening spring is always charged when the circuit breaker is in closed position and will be ready to open immediately if the protection relay gives a trip signal. However a quick reclosing is not possible. If the mechanism is equipped with a motor operation a reclosing will take approx. 10 seconds. The lower mechanism is identical to the one described above for cable switch module. There is a mechanical interlock between these two mechanisms which prevents operating of the disconnector and earthing switch when the circuit breaker is in closed position. When the earthing switch is in closed position it will be impossible to operate the disconnector, but the circuit breaker can be closed for testing purpose.

Transformer protection

SafeRing

SafeRing and SafePlus offer a choice between a switch fuse combination and circuit breaker in combination with relay for transformer protection. The switch-fuse combination offers optimal protection against short-circuit currents, while the circuit-breaker with relay offers better protection against low over-currents. Circuit breaker with relay is always recommended for higher rated transformers. SafeRing is delivered with a 200 A rated V-module. SafePlus V- module has two options: 200 or 630 A rating. Both for SafeRing and SafePlus the relay is a self powered relay that utilizes the energy from the CTs under a fault situation, for energizing the trip coil. The self powered relay can also be used for cable protection and more details on the different relays can be found in chapter 6.5. Transformer protection with self powered relay. Recommended types: ABB relay type REJ 603 SEG WIC 1 Important features V-module: Relay behind cover. No need for additional low voltage box for the self powered relays used for transformer protection. Typical for vacuum circuit breaker protection: Good protection against short-circuits Very good for protection of over currents Small fault currents are detected in an early stage

SafeRing and SafePlus - Fuse-link selection by selection of fuse-links for the protection of a transformer, itis important that requirements in IEC 62271-105 and in IEC 69787 are fulfilled. In particular annex A in IEC 62271-105 gives a good example of the coordinationof fuse-links, switch and transformer. Correct selection of fuse-links for the protection of the transformer will give: Optimal protection of the transformer No damage on the fuse-links fuse-elements due to the magnetizing inrush current of the transformer No overheating of the fuse-links, the switch-fuse combi- nation or the switchgear due to the full load current or the permissible periodic overlaod current of the transformer A transfer current of the combination which is as low as possible, and less than the rated transfer current of the switch-fuse combination A situation where the fuse-links alone will deal with the condition of a short-circuit on the transformer secondary terminals Fuse-links that discriminate with the low-voltage fuse-links in the event of phase-to-phase faults occurring down stream the low-voltage fuse-links By carefully checking that these rules are followed, fuse-links from any manufacturer can be used in combination with SafeRing and SafePlus as long as the fuse-links are in accordance with the requirements described in chapter 6.5

Fuse-links

SafeRing and SafePlus are designed and tested for fuse-links according to IEC 60282-1 The dimensions of the fuse-links have to be in accordance with IEC 60282-1, Annex D. The fuse-links have to be type I with terminal diameter equal to 45 +1 mm and body length (e) equal to 442 mm. The dimensions of the fuse-links can also to be in accordance with DIN 43625 and the length of the fuse canister is based on the use of fuse-links with length 442 mm. For installation of shorter fuses, (<24kV ) a fuse adapter will be needed. Please note: When inserting the fuse-link into the canister, the striker-pin must always face outwards against the fuse holder. Fuse adapter has to be fixed to the fuse-link contact part which faces inwards in the fuse canister. 1600 kVA is the maximum size of distribution transformer which can be fed from a SafeRing / SafePlus switch-fuse module. For higher rated transformers, we recommend our vacuum circuit breaker module with CTs and protection relay. The below table shows CEF fuse-links for use in SafeRing/ SafePlus. For more technical data, we refer to our ABB Poland catalogue. In order to find the correct fuse-link compared to the transformer rating in kVA, please see the selection table on previous page.

Combisensor

Sensor variants Two versions could be selected: one providing voltage measurement together with voltage indication capability (KEVCY 24 RF1), or a second one, providing, in addition to these, also the possibility of current measurement (KEVCY 24 RE1). Linearity Due to the absence of a ferromagnetic core the sensor has a linear response over a very wide primary current range, far exceeding the typical CT range. Current sensor Current measurement in KEVCY 24 RE1 sensors is based on the Rogowski coil principle. A Rogowski coil is a toroidal coil, without an iron core, placed around the primary conductor in the same way as the secondary winding in a current transformer. Voltage sensor Voltage measurement in KEVCY 24 RE1 and KEVCY 24 RF1 sensors is based on the capacitive divider principle Sensor application KEVCY 24 RE1 & RF1 are compact and very small bushing type sensors designed to be used in SF6 gas insulated switchgear type SafeRing and SafePlus. The external cone type of the sensor is designed according to the standard EN 50181, Interface C (400 series 630 A, M16 bolt), and therefore enables connection of all compatible cable plugs. Secondary cables The sensor is equipped with two cables: Cable for coupling electrode with BNC connector Current and voltage signal cable with RJ-45 connector for connection with the IED The cable connector for connection with the IED is type RJ-45. The sensor accuracy classes are verified up to the RJ-45 connector, i.e. considering also its secondary cable. This cable is intended to be connected directly to the IED, and subsequently neither burden calculation nor secondary wiring is needed. Every sensor is therefore accuracy tested when equipped with its own cable and connector. Standard cable length for connection with IED: 2.2 m Standard cable length for connection with coupling electrode: 0.45 m

Capacitive voltage indication

Capacitive voltage indicating system SafeRing / SafePlus can be supplied with two different types of capacitive voltage indication systems: Voltage Detection System, type HR SafeRing / SafePlus can be delivered with a voltage Detection System, (VDS) acc. to IEC 61243-5.
HR-module (VDS)

Portable voltage indicators, type VIM-1 and VIM-3 can be connected to the coupling system interface, see below for details. The VDS solution is designed and tested for reliable operation in heavily polluted and humid environments. Voltage Presence Indicating System SafeRing/SafePlus are normally delivered with a Voltage Presence Indicating System (VPIS) acc. to IEC 61958.

VPIS

The coupling system has integrated voltage indicators (LEDs). The VPIS solution is the recommended choice for normal indoor operating conditions. Coupling system VDS or VPIS are situated on the front of the switchgear, one for each functional unit. The voltage condition for each cable terminal is shown by separable (VDS) or integrated (VPIS) voltage indicators. Identification of the phases is achieved by labels on the front of the coupling system / voltage indicator. Phase balance check The coupling systems of both solutions VDS and VPIS have connection points for phase balance checking. If the VDS coupling systems have permanently connected indicators (VIM-3), these must be removed before phase balance checking can be done. Phase balance checking should be done with a recommended phase comparator, type PCM, (for details see below). PCM can be used for phase balance checking between identical coupling systems (VDS or VPIS). Particular care should be taken when phase balance checking is done between different coupling systems. In this case a universal Phase Comparator (VPC acc. to IEC 61243-5) is recommended.

Short-circuit indicator

Horstmann SIGMA Short-circuit Indicator The SIGMA short-circuit indicator is designed for distribution networks using radial or open-ring operation. The instrument is provided with three short-circuit current transformers which are mounted onto the bushings of the switchgear. When the phase current exceeds the preset trip level, the fault-affected phase is indicated by a bright LED flashlight as the remote signal contact gets activated. If a second tripping occurs within a preset time, for example when automatic re-closing is in process, this condition is indicated by a double flashing LED.

Horstmann SIGMA F+E 3 Short-circuit and Earth Fault Indicator The SIGMA F+E 3 short-circuit and earth fault indicator provides the same functions as the SIGMA type. Three cabletype current transformers are used for short-circuit and earth fault detection. The overcurrent (I>>) is indicated by a red LED whereas a yellow LED signals the earth fault current (IE).

Short-circuit indicator

Horstmann ComPass A Short-circuit and Earth Fault Indicator The ComPass A is a combined short-circuit and earth fault indicator along with the feature of load current measurement. It can be operated in radial and open ring distribution networks. Three cable-type current transformers are used to detect short-circuits and earth faults, and to measure the load current. The ComPass A permanently measures the phase currents and indicates either the earth fault or the short-circuit on the display once the trip levels have been exceeded. Besides the permanent indications of the actual load current and frequency values, this design also allows for active storage of load current data in the form of maximum values measured in the last 24 hours and 365 days. RS-485/modbus interface can be used to remotely indicate and to read the relevant data. Horstmann ComPass B Directional Short-circuit and Directional Earth Fault Indicator The ComPass B instrument provides the same functions as the ComPass A. The ComPass B also features directional detection of short-circuits and directional detection of earth faults in all networks//neutral earthing connections, and moreover the indication of the load flow direction.

Horstmann ALPHA E Short-circuit Indicator This instrument is designed for distribution networks using radial or open-ring operation. It is provided with three short-circuit current transformers which are mounted onto the bushings of the switchgear. In the event of a fault, a mechanical flag is operated to signal that the phase current has exceeded the preset trip level.

Ronis key interlock

A 1)

Except for fuse-switch and vacuum circuit-breaker, all load break switches, earthing switches and disconnectors may be equipped with Ronis key interlock type EL11AP for one key. Earthing switches can also be equipped with EL22AP for 2 keys. Ronis key interlocks can be used as follow: Two switchgears A and B are connected to each other by cables. The purpose of interlocks is to prevent closing of the earthing switch unless the load break switch in the other switchgear is locked in open position. 1) One Ronis key interlock will be mounted close to the operating shaft of the load break switch in switchgear A. An identical Ronis key interlock will be mounted close to the operating shaft of the earthing switch in switchgear B. As long as the load break switch in switchgear A is in closed position, it will be impossible to remove or operate the key in the key interlock. 2) First you have to operate the load break switch in switchgear A to open position. Then it will be possible to operate the key interlock and turn the key which extends the locking bolt. This will prevent the access to the operating shaft of the load break switch. Then withdraw the key and insert it into the identical key interlock on the earthing switch of switchgear B. 3) When the key is inserted, you will be able to operate the key interlock and turn the key which will withdraw the extended locking bolt. Then there will be access to operate the earthing switch to closed position. As long as the earthing switch is in closed position, the key will be captured and make it impossible to close the load break switch in switchgear A. 4) If the load break switch in switchgear B and earthing switch in switchgear A are equipped with another identical Ronis key interlock which has a different key combination than described above, it will be impossible to make an earth connection of an incoming energized cable from neither switchgear A nor B. Another example for use of Ronis key interlocks is to prevent access to the distribution transformer before the primary side of the transformer is connected to earth. This can be solved by means of two identical Ronis key interlocks; one mounted on the earthing switch for the distribution transformer feeder and the other one on the door in front of the transformer.

Remote control

The SafeRing and SafePlus can be supplied with remote control and monitoring equipment. The switchgear can be fitted with two different types of ABB remote terminal units; RTU211 or REC523. The REC523 is required when cable bushing with combisensors for current and voltage measurements is used. The RTU211 and REC523 can communicate with control centres of all sizes. Different types of communication media can be delivered, and offers a choice,between the communication protocols ABB RP570, IEC 870-5-101, DNP 3.0 and Modbus RTU/ASCII. Other protocols can be developed on request. The integrated remote control and monitoring unit is supplied for SafeRing in 3- and 4-way configuration. This requires two adjacent function modules of type C, De, D, Be or Sl (e.g. CC or De-C). The unit can not be supplied in a SafeRing with cable test bushings.
