engraved on black background.
5 Circuit Breakers
Circuit breaker poles shall be operated by a common shaft. Operation counter shall be provided.
SF6 circuit Breaker shall have enclosure/bottle containing fixed, moving & arcing contact, individual
for each phase. Suitable arrangement shall be provided to check the contact wear & tear.
When breaker is already closed, failure of any auxiliary spring shall not prevent tripping and shall not
cause damage to the breaker or endanger the operator.
A mechanical OPEN/CLOSE position indicator visible with closed door shall be provided.
Circuit Breaker shall be provided with Motor wound spring charging mechanism, complete with motor.
Spring charging motor shall preferably be an universal motor.
Motor shall be used solely for storing energy in the spring - and not for direct closing of the Breaker.
Limit Switch shall be provided to cut-off the motor power, when the spring is charged fully, with a
contact for spring charged indication lamp on the panel. Also, mechanical indication for spring
charged/Discharged shall be provided.
Breakers shall have facility to charge the spring by the manual spring charging handle. It should be
ensured that whilst manual spring charging is in operation, Electrical power to the spring charging
motor shall be cut off, automatically.
Breaker incoming and outgoing terminals shall be suitable for cable / ACSR Conductor/IPS Aluminium
tube as specified in data sheet.
- A closing release & shunt trip releases shall satisfactorily operate of related control supply
voltage.
- The vacuum circuit breaker shall comprise hermetically sealed single interrupter.
-
- Breaker shall be suitable for related IS / IEC/ BC code.
-
- Necessary interlocks/safety features shall be provided to prevent material operation and to
ensure safety of person.
-
- For SF6 circuit Breaker each pole shall consist of insulating enclosure, moving and fixed
contacts, breaking chamber, operating mechanism by insulated tie rod, special alloy
enclosure of capability of withstanding area temperature and reduce chopping current
through preventing restriking, voltage surges, Breaker pole chamber filled up with sulphur
Hexaflouride (SF6) gas at desired pressure. SF6 gas pressure switched with contacts shall
be provided to lockout closing or tripping of Circuit Breaker and give alarm in event of the
pressure falling below desired value.
- Additional dedicated pressure switch with 4 poles for Normal, Low Gas, Lockout etc. shall be
provided for SCADA remote operation.
