Description

Switchgear assembly comprising a circuit breaker compartment
Field of the invention
The invention relates to a switchgear assembly comprising a circuit breaker compartment, a first external interface, a second external interface and a third external interface.
Background of the invention
Medium voltage switchgear assemblies may be provided for rated voltages between 1 kV and 72 kV. High voltage switchgear assemblies may be provided for rated voltages above 72 kV. Switchgear assemblies are utilized in order to distribute an energy flow and to ensure a safe operation within a power net. In order to control the energy flow a switchgear assembly may provide several functions, such as disconnecting, closing and earthing.
The document WO 2009/030443 A1 discloses a switchgear assembly equipped with a short-circuiting system having at least one short-circuiting device in which a moving contact piece can be closed onto a fixed contact piece by means of a propellant charge or a gas generator.
The document WO 2009/07256 A1 discloses a switch gear assembly for medium- voltage or high voltage having pole parts, insulators, busbar joints/couplings, and cable connectors as well as switchgear. Switchgear assemblies may be categorized in gas insulated devices (GIS) and air insulated devices (AIS). In general, air insulated devices may need more space when installed compared to gas insolated device, since the gas, such as SF6 (SF6 = sulfur hexafluoride) provides improved insulating characteristics compared to air. These differences may influence the dimensions of the switchgear assembly and therefore gas insulated switchgear assemblies may provide a more compact design. However, there are further issues to be taken into account when using a gas for insulating, for example SF6 may be expensive and has to be kept inside gas-tight compartments of the switchgear assembly in order to ensure a long-term insulation.
It is an object of the present invention to provide a switchgear assembly which provides a compact design and which design may be utilized for air insulated switchgear as well as for gas insulated switchgear.
Summary of the invention
According to an exemplary embodiment of the invention a switchgear assembly may be provided which comprises a circuit breaker compartment, a first external interface, a second external interface, a third external interface. It may be foreseen that at least one of the external interfaces comprises an actuating cylinder. Moreover, the actuating cylinder comprises a movable member, wherein the movable member comprises an elongated axis and wherein the movable member is movable in a direction of the elongated axis and wherein the movable member is adapted to connect and disconnect a conducting part of an installed circuit breaker with an external conductor.
The switchgear assembly may be an air insulated switchgear assembly. It may also be possible that the switchgear assembly may be a gas insulated switchgear assembly. The invention provides a design for a medium voltage switchgear panel or a high voltage switchgear panel which comprises actuating cylinders in bushings,
respectively. According to an exemplary embodiment of the invention the first external interface is adapted to be connected with a cable.
The cable connected to the switchgear assembly may be a part of the power net, for example of a power distribution net.
According to an exemplary embodiment of the invention the second external interface is adapted to be connected with a busbar.
According to an exemplary embodiment of the invention the third external interface is adapted to be connected with a ground potential.
This means that the earthing function can also be performed by the circuit breaker installed inside the circuit breaker compartment, omitting a dedicated earthing switch. Therefore, there is provided a compact design of the switchgear which is possible due to the omission of a traverse path of the circuit breaker "truck". The cable compartment can be more compact due to the omission of the dedicated earthing switch. Lower ohmic resistance of the primary conductors due to a short path from the busbar to the cable may be provided. Since the total ohmic resistance can be reduced, it is possible to increase the nominal current.
According to an exemplary embodiment of the invention the first external interface comprises a first actuating cylinder with a first movable member and the second external interface comprises a second actuating cylinder with a second movable member, wherein the first movable member is movable in a first moving direction and the second movable member is movable in a second moving direction. Moreover, it is foreseen that the first moving direction and the second moving direction is a horizontal direction in relation to a ground floor of the switchgear assembly.
According to an exemplary embodiment of the invention the third external interface comprises a third actuating cylinder with a third movable member, wherein the third movable member is movable in a third moving direction. In addition, the third moving direction is a vertical direction in relation to a ground floor of the switchgear assembly. According to an exemplary embodiment of the invention the switchgear assembly comprises a first shutter, which is adapted to shield a first connecting area of an installed circuit breaker when a first movable member of the first actuating cylinder is positioned in a disconnecting position.
According to an exemplary embodiment of the invention the switchgear assembly comprises a second shutter, which is adapted to shield a second connecting area of an installed circuit breaker when a second movable member of the second actuating cylinder is positioned in a disconnecting position.
The circuit breaker compartment can be shielded with shutters, both to the busbar and to the cable. Thus, a LSC-2B category of IEC 62271-200 is met, for example the busbar and also the cable can remain energized while a door of the circuit breaker compartment is open. In other words, the category LSC-2B of the standard IEC 62271- 200 is possible with shutters at the first actuating cylinder and the second actuating cylinder. The third actuating cylinder may comprise a third shutter. It may also be foreseen that the third actuating cylinder may not require a shutter, since this actuating cylinder may be earthed.
A further advantageous embodiment is, that the actuating cylinders and/or their related movable members are not of a cylindrical shape, but basically any other linear extendable geometrical shape, like a bar or a hexagonal shaft or alike.
According to an exemplary embodiment of the invention at least one actuating cylinder is driven by a pump.
The actuating cylinders may be driven by a centralized pump, for example with air or with oil or the like.
According to an exemplary embodiment of the invention at least one actuating cylinder is driven by a magnetic actuator. According to an exemplary embodiment of the invention at least one actuating cylinder is driven by an electric motor.
The electric motor may also drive further parts of the switch gear assembly. When the actuating cylinders are driven by magnetic actuators or motors, mechanical coupling and further insulation may be provided.

While in this figure only one phase is visible, these switchgears can comprise also several phases.
Detailed description of the drawings
The Figure shows a schematic view of a switchgear assembly with a switchgear 1 , comprising a circuit breaker compartment 2, with an installed circuit breaker 3. The circuit breaker 3 can be a fixed version and the required space in the panel may be reduced. The circuit breaker design "for the panel" can be very close to a "stand alone" design, for example the variation in the production is reduced. The circuit breaker 3 comprises a drive part 4 and a pole part 5. The drive part 4 of the circuit breaker 3 is installed close to a door 6 of the circuit breaker compartment 2. The pole part 5 of the circuit breaker 3 comprises a first connecting area 7 and a second connecting area 8, which are both positioned towards an opposite direction of the door 6. The pole part 5 comprises a third connecting area 9 which is positioned on the top of the pole part 5 of the circuit breaker 3. After insertion of the circuit breaker 3 into the circuit breaker compartment 2 of the switchgear assembly, mechanically locking the circuit breaker 3 in place may be provided. After the door 6 of the circuit breaker compartment 2 is closed, the circuit breaker 3 can be connected to a cable, to a busbar or to ground potential using actuating cylinders 12, 13, 25 inside the panel.
Moreover, the switchgear 1 comprises a first insulating case 10 and a second insulating case 1 1 wherein the first insulating case 10 corresponds to the first connecting area 7 of the circuit breaker 3 and the second insulating case 1 1 corresponds to the second connecting area 8 of the circuit breaker 3. The first insulating case 10 comprises a first actuating cylinder 2 and the second insulating case 11 comprises a second actuating cylinder 13. Inside the first actuating cylinder 12 a first movable connector 14 is axially movable in the first moving direction 15, indicated by an arrow. The second actuating cylinder 13 comprises a second movable connector 16 which is axially movable in a second moving direction 17, indicated by an arrow 17. The first connecting area 7 is connectable via a first external interface 31 to a connection of a cable 18. The connection is provided by the first movable connector 14 which interacts with the first connecting area 7. The second connecting area 8 is connectable via a second external interface 32 to a busbar 19. The connection is provided by the second movable connector 16 which interacts with the second connecting area 8.
In Fig. 1 it is foreseen that the circuit breaker compartment 2 is shielded with a first shutter 20 and a second shutter 21. The switchgear assembly or the panel complies with the category LSC-2B of IEC 62271-200. The first shutter 20 is movable in a third moving direction 22, indicated by an arrow and the second shutter 21 is movable in a fourth direction 23, indicated by an arrow. Both shutters 20, 21 are axially movable in the same direction which is a vertical direction in relation to the installation or a ground floor 34 of the switchgear assembly 1. The first movable connector 14 and the second movable connector 16 are axially movable in a horizontal direction in relation to the installation of the switchgear assembly 1 shown in Fig. 1. The third connecting area 9 of the circuit breaker 3 is connectable to ground potential 24. The connection between the connecting area 9 and the ground potential 24 is provided by a third actuating cylinder 25 which comprises a third movable connector 26. The third movable connector 26 is movable in the direction of a fifth moving direction 27, indicated by an arrow. In Fig. 1 all movable connectors 14, 16, 26 comprise a stop member 28, 29, 30, respectively.
The configuration, shown in Fig. 1 shows an earthing of the cable 18 using the pole part 5. The configuration of the switchgear 1 in Fig. 1 is able to perform all required functions between busbar and cable, for example closing, opening, disconnecting and earthing.
In the following the different functions will be explained.
In the position of disconnecting the actuating cylinders 12, 13, especially the first movable connector 14 and the second movable connector 16 are withdrawn.
In the closing position the actuating cylinders 12, 13 with the movable members 14, 16 are forwarded towards the circuit breaker 3 to connect the main terminals of the pole part 5, especially the first connecting area 7 and the second connecting area 8 with the cable 18 and the busbar 19, respectively. In this position of the first and the second actuating cylinders 12, 13 the circuit breaker 3 is open at first and can be closed and then the cable 8 is connected to the busbar 19.
In the position of earthing, the circuit breaker 3 is open. The first actuating cylinder 12 with the first movable connector 14 is connected to the pole part 5, especially to the first connecting area 7. The second actuating cylinder 13 with the second movable connector 16 is being withdrawn. Then, the third actuating cylinder 25 with the third movable connector 26 is connected to the top terminal of the pole part 5, especially to the third connecting area 9. Then, the circuit breaker 3 can be closed and the cable 8 is earthed. A dedicated fault making earthing switch is therefore not required.
It is possible that the circuit breaker 3 is inserted into the circuit breaker compartment 2 or a switchgear panel during commissioning of the panel itself. The circuit breaker 3 will then be fixed inside the circuit breaker compartment 2. In operation of the circuit breaker 3 all functions can be performed without the need to move the circuit breaker 3. In summary there is provided a switchgear assembly for closing, opening, disconnecting and earthing.
