Abstract: A method of predicting a lifetime of a gas filling of an electrical switchgear is disclosed, wherein pressure values p1, p2 in a system of the electrical switchgear containing the gas filling at a predefined temperature Tp at different points in time t1, t2 are measured. Based on the pressure difference ?p between the pressure values p1, p2 the lifetime of the gas filling is calculated. Alternatively, the pressure values p1, p2 can be taken at temperatures T1, T2 within a predefined temperature range at different points in time t1, t2.

Abstract: A switch for medium voltage applications is provided. The switch comprises a vacuum interrupter having a fixed contact, a movable contact movable in a first direction to and away from the fixed contact between a closed position and an open position, and a drive rod arranged to the movable contact for moving the contact between the closed position and the open position. The switch further comprises a changeover switch having a first terminal body, a second terminal body, an elongated pole body, and an operating rod. The elongate pole body is hinged with a first end to the first terminal body and rotatable between a connected position in which the second end of the pole body is in direct electrical contact with the second terminal body and a disconnected position in which the second end is disconnected from the second terminal body.

Abstract: A connector for electrically connecting two panels having switchgear has: two cups having a truncated cone shape for arrangement in a panel, the cups each having a conductor end extending through the tip of the cone and into the cup; an insulating body having two opposite truncated cone shaped outer surfaces each for reception in one of the cups and having a central passage; an electrically conducting element for connecting with the conductor ends extending in the central passage of the insulating body; wherein the insulating body is a molded body having an earth wire molded in; and wherein a coating of an electrical conducting layer is arranged on the earth wire and at least part of the insulating body.

Abstract: A switching installation includes a gas tight housing with at least one wall part. An input conductor disposed in the housing is configured to carry an input voltage. An insulation is arranged around the input conductor so as to insulate the input conductor from the housing. A short-circuit device is changeable from a first condition, in which the insulation is insulating the input conductor from the housing, to a second condition, in which an electrical short circuit connection is created through the insulation between the input conductor and an auxiliary connection. An actuator is coupled to the at least one wall part of the gas tight housing and is configured to actuate the short-circuit device as a result of movement of the wall part caused by a pressure increase in the housing. A threshold device is configured to provide a preset threshold in the actuator.

Abstract: An electrically insulated conductor connection assembly and a method for providing the same are provided. The electrically insulated conductor connection assembly includes first and second electrical conductors each comprising a body portion and an end portion. A fastening mechanism electrically and mechanically connects the end portions of the first electrical conductor to the end portion of the second electrical conductor, and an insulator overlays and electrically insulates the fastening mechanism. The end portions of the first and second electrical conductors and the fastening mechanism form a joint, which is structured to be fastenable and unfastenable. When the joint is fastened and the insulator is overlaying the fastening mechanism, the joint is electrically insulated.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method of operating a lithographic projection apparatus including calculating a change in aberration effect in the projection system, due to heating effects, as a function of time, based on at least one set of predetermined parameters; and adjusting the lithographic projection apparatus to compensate for the calculated change in aberration effect. The parameters are obtained by a calibration operation, which may comprise a coarse calibration followed by at least one fine calibration. The coarse calibration yields a first estimate of at least a subset of the parameters. The estimate can be used as an input for a subsequent fine calibration. The calibration may also comprise a single fine calibration.
