types with different normal currents and short-circuit currents

Description
Construction and mode of operation
The 3AH5 vacuum circuit-breaker consists of the pole assem-

blies (1) and the operating mechanism box (2). The pole as-
1
semblies are fixed to the operating mechanism box via post
insulators (3). The switching movement is transferred by
means of operating rods (4) and levers.

Pole assemblies

The pole assemblies consist of the vacuum interrupters (5)
and the interrupter supports. The vacuum interrupters are

air-insulated and freely accessible. This makes it possible to
clean the insulating parts easily in adverse ambient condi-

tions. The vacuum interrupter is rigidly fixed to the upper

interrupter support (6). The lower part of the interrupter is
guided in the lower interrupter support (7), allowing axial
movement. The braces (8) absorb the external forces result-
ing from switching operations and the contact pressure. Circuit-breaker structure

requirement.
Operating mechanism
For circuit-breaker operation, both spring-operated and
stored-energy mechanisms are available. With manual
spring-operated mechanisms, the closing process takes place
automatically after manual charging of the closing spring.
The opening or contact springs are charged simultaneously
during the closing operation, which means that a stored
energy mechanism is available for the opening operation.
With motor or manual operating stored-energy mechanisms,
the closing spring is either charged electrically or manually.
It latches tight at the end of the charging process and serves
R-HG11-186.tif
as an energy store.
To close the breaker, the closing spring can be unlatched

either mechanically by means of the local “ON” pushbutton
or electrically by remote control. The closing spring charges
the opening or contact pressure springs as the breaker clos-
es. The now discharged closing spring will be charged again
automatically by the mechanism motor or manually. Then
the operating sequence OPEN-CLOSE-OPEN is stored in the
springs.
Trip-free mechanism
3AH5 vacuum circuit-breakers have a trip-free mechanism
according to IEC 62271-100. In the event of an opening com-
mand being given after a closing operation has been initiated,
the moving contacts return to the open position and remain
there even if the closing command is sustained. This means
R-HG11-187.tif
that the contacts of the vacuum circuit-breakers are momen-

tarily in the closed position, which is permissible according to
IEC 62271-100. Open operating mechanism box

Maintenance-free design, ambient conditions, current carrying capacity and dielectric strength
Maintenance-free design
The 3AH5 vacuum circuit-breakers are maintenance-free:
• Under normal ambient conditions according to IEC 62271-1
(former IEC 60694).
• Up to 10,000 operating cycles,

–– no relubrication, no readjustment required
–– and within their tolerances, the characteristics are
independent of the switching rate or of standing times
without switching operations.

Ambient conditions
The vacuum circuit-breakers are designed for the normal

operating conditions defined in IEC 62271-100.

Condensation can occasionally occur under the ambient
conditions shown opposite. 3AH5 vacuum circuit-breakers
are suitable for use in the following climatic classes accord-
ing to IEC 60721, Part 3-3:
Climatic ambient conditions: Class 3K4 1)
Biological ambient conditions: Class 3B1
Mechanical ambient conditions: Class 3M2

Chemically-active substances: Class 3C2 2)
Mechanically-active substances: Class 3S2 3)

1) Low temperature limit: – 5 °C

2) Without icing and wind-driven precipitation
3) Restriction: Clean insulation parts

Current carrying capacity (see diagram)

The rated normal currents specified in the opposite diagram
have been defined according to IEC 62271-100 for an ambi-

ent air temperature of + 40 °C and apply to open switchgear.

For enclosed switchgear the data of the switchgear manu-
facturer applies. At ambient air temperatures below + 40 °C,
higher normal currents can be carried.

Operating cycle diagrams for 12 kV
The permissible number of
electrical operating cycles

is shown as a function

of the breaking current
(r.m.s. value). All vacuum

circuit-breakers fulfil the
endurance classes E2,
M2 and C2 according

to IEC 62271-100. The
curve shape beyond the
parameters defined in

IEC 62271-100 is based on
average experience data.

The number of operating

cycles that can actually be

reached can be different
depending on the respective
application.
