  • Publication number: 20110232959
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a medium-voltage electric distribution cubicle designed to be fitted between two parts of an electric circuit so as to perform at least the functions respectively of current flow between the parts, of current interruption between the parts, of circuit disconnection, and of earthing. This cubicle is characterized in that it comprises a switch (or circuit breaker) with vacuum break technology also performing the disconnecting switch function and, in series with said switch (circuit breaker), a selector with at least two positions, respectively a current flow position and an earthing position of one of the parts of the circuit.

  • Patent number: 5995362
    Abstract: A support and electrical power supply device comprises a mounting plate supporting an electrical switchgear apparatus and housing branch conductors extending perpendicularly to a busbar. The branch conductors present identical lengths. The connection strips are arranged close to the opposite terminal parts of the branch conductors and comprise orifices arranged symmetrically with respect to the horizontal midplane of the mounting plate to enable fitting of the connection parts with the lineside terminals or the loadside terminals of the switchgear apparatus. Two connection possibilities of the switchgear apparatus are possible at the time of installation to achieve a lineside or a loadside power supply. The same mounting plate can also be used for supply of a single switchgear apparatus or of two switchgear apparatuses with opposite feeders.

  • Patent number: 4752860
    Abstract: A metallic three-phase substation has three circuit breaker per two feeders, and includes two busbars (B01, B02) to which a plurality of single-phase cells (14R, 16R, 18R, 14S, 16S, 18S, 14T, 16T, 18T) with separate phases are connected. The cells are provided with circuit breakers (20R, 22R, 24R, 20S, 22S, 24S, 20T, 22T, 24T) which are aligned longitudinally according to a direction parallel to the busbars (B01, B02) and which are housed in vertical enclosures, located at regular intervals along the busbars. The lower and upper transverse connections of the circuit breakers extend respectively in two planes parallel to the bushbars (B01, B02).
