The HVX withdrawable version requires a racking trolley, arms, and tulip-type
contacts for connection to the switchgear power circuit, and an LV connector to
connect the auxiliary circuits.
Racking trolley
PM105618
The HVX racking trolley allows panel builders to design switchgear solutions with
enhanced safety features. It has a robust interlocking system with the switchgear
door, LV plug, circuit breaker, and ground switch. It can be equipped with an
electric motor for remote racking from the control room.
Racking trolley
Arms Arms
The shape and size of HVX arms depend on the rated lightning impulse withstand
PM105630
voltage, the rated normal current, and the racking trolley stroke.
Tulip-type contacts
The shape of HVX contacts is tulip-type. The size depends on the rated current to
provide a maximum contact surface optimizing heat dissipation and offering good
Tulip-type contacts compensation characteristics for electrodynamic forces. The panel builder needs
to provide fixed-type contacts with the correct shape, tolerance, and material
characteristics compatible with the HVX tulip-type contacts.

The F11/F12 release is used to open the circuit breaker. The release coil is actuated
relay K01
by the auxiliary power supply.
The coil is designed for short operation only; it is therefore routed via an auxiliary
DM105013b
switch contact controlled by the circuit breaker shaft, and upon release it interrupts
the current circuit.

Closing release F2
The F2 release is used to close the circuit breaker. The release coil is actuated by
the auxiliary power supply.
The coil is designed for short operation only; it is therefore routed via an auxiliary
Overcurrent switch contact controlled by the circuit breaker shaft, and upon release it interrupts
release F3 the current circuit.

Overcurrent release F3
DM103419
The F3 release is used to open the circuit breaker in the event of overcurrent or
short-circuit.
Closing release The power to activate the overcurrent release comes from the current transformer
F2 of the high voltage circuit, not from the auxiliary voltage supply. Thus the tripping
function of this coil is independent of the auxiliary voltage supply.

Undervoltage release F4
DM103421
The F4 release opens the circuit breaker automatically, when the auxiliary voltage
drops below a certain level. Thus the undervoltage release protects the circuit
breaker against a drop or loss of the auxiliary voltage supply.

An optional flexible LV plug and socket system enables connection of the circuit
breaker auxiliary circuits to the switchgear control cabinet. It consists of an elbow-
type connector mounted on the frame of the circuit breaker and a removable
connector with 58 male pins mounted on a 525 mm flexible duct. This LV connector
is to be connected to the LV cabinet of the cubicle.
The counter part connector equipped with the female contacts is assembled in the
low voltage cabinet of the switchgear.
PM105631
The LV plug collects electrical commands and status information from the circuit
LV connector, breaker terminal blocks and from the racking trolley terminal blocks. The number
cubicle side of pins in the LV plug (maximum 58) may limit the number of available position
contacts for the switchgear LV cabinet.
For the withdrawable version, the LV plug is interlocked with the racking trolley and
LV connector,
circuit breaker the operating mechanism to prevent any manual close commands without the LV
side plug latched onto the circuit breaker frame.
Fixed version
PM105621
The breaker is equipped with a set of terminal blocks or with an LV plug to connect
the circuit breaker auxiliary circuit with the LV wiring from the LV box.
Withdrawable version
DM105016
In the withdrawable version the HVX is mounted on a racking trolley to move the
circuit breaker between test position and service position .
The HVX racking trolley comprises:
• A frame with 4 wheels for moving the circuit breaker
• A drive system with a rotating shaft to move the circuit breaker inside the
switchgear compartment
• An optional motor drive for electrical operation
Only available for:
- HVX 12 kV/17.5 kV, phase distance 210 mm and 275 mm
- HVX 24 kV, phase distance 275 mm
• A set of auxiliary contacts to indicate the service or withdrawn position of the
circuit breaker
• A set of mechanical levers to interlock the trolley
• A system to latch the racking trolley to the switchgear frame to withstand the
mechanical forces of the short circuit
• An interlock between the racking trolley and the door of the panel
The circuit breaker is equipped with devices to operate the shutter mechanism.
Earthing
DM105018
DM105019
The racking trolley is earthed using an additional earthing system on the bottom of
the trolley. On request this can be equipped with earthing bars on the sides of the
racking trolley.

DM105022
This is a mechanical device, which allows the panel builders to create their own
interlock. Fixed type circuit breakers, which are converted into a withdrawable
circuit breaker by the customer using the customer's own racking trolley, need to
have an interlock between the circuit breaker and the trolley.
