It operates by detecting abnormal current levels and quickly opening the circuit to prevent damage to equipment and ensure safety.
Abstract: The rating structure for all high-voltage circuit breakers, which include all voltage ratings above 1000 V ac and comprise both indoor and outdoor types, is covered in this standard. Preferred ratings are also provided.
Scope: This standard applies to all indoor and outdoor types of ac high-voltage circuit breakers rated above 1000 V and rated on a symmetrical current basis. Purpose: Inconsistency in application of preferred ratings of high-voltage circuit breakers may result in wrong application of interrupting current and voltage levels.
Preferred ratings are also provided. Typical circuit breakers covered by these standards have maximum voltage ratings ranging from 4.76 kV through 800 kV, and continuous current ratings of 600 A, 1200 A, 2000 A, 3000 A, and 4000 A associated with the various maximum voltage ratings.
Moreover, the Siemens high-voltage live-tank circuit-breakers are available for three-pole operation with a common base (FG) (fig. 9), for single-pole operation with a common base (FE), or for single-pole operation with separate bases (FI). Siemens high-voltage circuit-breakers operate safely, and are capable of withstanding high mechanical loads.
Read how we're working together with eleven other partners from nine countries to achieve this. We classify our high voltage breakers primarily into: live tanks and disconnecting circuit breakers (DCBs); and dead tanks and dead tank compact (DTC). Both categories include Blue products which use zero F-gases.
