Patent number: 8000087Abstract: Each integral unit is structured by arranging partial units (I), (II), and (Ill) side by side, while line-side devices are branched from positions between the partial units adjacent to each other. Each of the partial units is structured by connecting a current transformer and a disconnector in sequence to each of upper and lower outlets horizontally drawn out from a lateral face of a vertical-type circuit breaker in the same direction. Any two partial units positioned adjacent to each other are connected in series by connecting the disconnectors included therein with a connection bus. The line-side devices are positioned to oppose the circuit breakers while the disconnectors are interposed therebetween. The switchgear includes a plurality of integral units. Two ends of each of the integral units are respectively connected to two main buses that are provided in an upper position and a lower position while the disconnectors are interposed therebetween.Type: GrantFiled: November 29, 2007Date of Patent: August 16, 2011Assignee: Mitsubishi Electric CorporationInventors: Daisuke Fujita, Takuya Otsuka, Hitoshi Sadakuni

Patent number: 7515398Abstract: In a one-and-a-half circuit breaker system gas-insulated switchgear assembly for three-phase AC transmission, the circuit breakers are located on a common horizontal floor directed in Y direction. First main bus bars extending in X direction are located above the first circuit breakers. The positions of the first main bus bars in different phases are different from one another only in height. Similarly, the second main bus bars extending in X direction are located above the third circuit breakers. Each phase of the main bus bars and disconnecting switches is located in a common horizontal plane. The heights are different for different phases. Relative locations of the disconnecting switches are substantially common for every phase horizontally, but are shifted in the X direction.Type: GrantFiled: March 21, 2006Date of Patent: April 7, 2009Assignee: Kabushiki Kaisha ToshibaInventors: Hiroshi Takao, Masayuki Fukunaga, Reiji Ohara

Patent number: 6229690Abstract: The invention concerns a horizontally divided switchgear, including compartments for high voltage and for cable connection. The cable connection compartment is common to one or more switchgear cubicles and is a compartment separated from the high voltage compartment(s) of the cubicle(s). In the switchgear is included one or more switchgear cubicles defined by vertical (12, 13, 14) and horizontal (15, 16) walls. The cubicle is arranged with only high voltage equipment, while connection means (18) for incoming and outgoing current cables are arranged exteriorly underneath the lower horizontal wall (16) of the cubicle. Bushing means (17) for cable conections are arranged in the lower horizontal wall (16).Type: GrantFiled: January 7, 2000Date of Patent: May 8, 2001Assignee: ABB ABInventors: Jan Fivelstad, Christer Arnborg

Patent number: 5991148Abstract: This metal-enclosed, gas-insulated switchgear assembly is provided with at least one multiphase switch panel which is mounted on a foundation surface (8), with in each case at least one power breaker (1, 2, 3) per phase which extends along a longitudinal axis (4, 5, 6), these longitudinal axes (4, 5, 6) being arranged in a first plane, with at least one busbar system which is arranged in at least a second plane and extends along busbar axes (13, 14, 15) and in which the busbar axes (13, 14, 15) have a distance (s) between them. The distance between centers between a first connecting stub (16, 17, 18) and a second connecting stub (25, 26, 27) of the power breaker (1, 2, 3) is at least three times and at most four times as great as the distance (s) between the busbar axes (13, 14, 15). The power breakers (1, 2, 3) may be arranged offset and aligned in a row, resulting in very compact switch panels.Type: GrantFiled: April 10, 1998Date of Patent: November 23, 1999Assignee: Asea Brown Boveri AGInventors: Franz Heil, Piero Tecchio
