3AH5 Vacuum Circuit-Breakers

3AH5 vacuum circuit-breaker from 12 to 36 kV The Economical

3AH5 vacuum circuit-breakers control all switching duties in medium-voltage systems. They are applicable for operation of e.g. overhead lines, cables, transformers, generators, capacitors, filter circuits, motors and reactors. Here, small short-circuit ratings in distribution systems face high breaking currents in industrial systems.

3AH5 the universal circuit-breaker in the product range

R-HG11-201.eps

The 3AH5 vacuum circuit-breaker is a real all-round device in its field of application. With its compact dimensions, it fits in all customary switchgear types. The comprehensive variety of types with different normal currents and short-circuit cur-

rents as well as various pole-center distances for voltage levels from 12 kV to 36 kV enables its universal application for all medium-voltage requirements.

Description
Construction and mode of operation

The 3AH5 vacuum circuit-breaker consists of the pole assemblies (1) and the operating mechanism box (2). The pole assemblies are fixed to the operating mechanism box via post insulators (3). The switching movement is transferred by means of operating rods (4) and levers. Pole assemblies The pole assemblies consist of the vacuum interrupters (5) and the interrupter supports. The vacuum interrupters are air-insulated and freely accessible. This makes it possible to clean the insulating parts easily in adverse ambient conditions. The vacuum interrupter is rigidly fixed to the upper interrupter support (6). The lower part of the interrupter is guided in the lower interrupter support (7), allowing axial movement. The braces (8) absorb the external forces resulting from switching operations and the contact pressure. Operating mechanism box The whole operating mechanism with releases, auxiliary switches, indicators and actuating devices is accommodated in the operating mechanism box. The extent of the secondary equipment depends on the case of application and offers a multiple variety of options in order to meet almost every requirement. Operating mechanism For circuit-breaker operation, both spring-operated and stored-energy mechanisms are available. With manual spring-operated mechanisms, the closing process takes place automatically after manual charging of the closing spring. The opening or contact springs are charged simultaneously during the closing operation, which means that a storedenergy mechanism is available for the opening operation. With motor or manual operating stored-energy mechanisms, the closing spring is either charged electrically or manually. It latches tight at the end of the charging process and serves as an energy store. To close the breaker, the closing spring can be unlatched either mechanically by means of the local ON pushbutton or electrically by remote control. The closing spring charges the opening or contact pressure springs as the breaker closes. The now discharged closing spring will be charged again automatically by the mechanism motor or manually. Then the operating sequence OPEN-CLOSE-OPEN is stored in the springs. Trip-free mechanism 3AH5 vacuum circuit-breakers have a trip-free mechanism according to IEC 62271-100. In the event of an opening command being given after a closing operation has been initiated, the moving contacts return to the open position and remain there even if the closing command is sustained. This means that the contacts of the vacuum circuit-breakers are momentarily in the closed position, which is permissible according to IEC 62271-100.

3AH5 Vacuum Circuit-Breakers

Releases A release is a device which transfers commands from an external source, such as a control room, to the latching mechanism of the vacuum circuit-breaker so that it can be opened or closed. The maximum possible equipment is one shunt release and another release to be selected at will. For release combinations, refer to page 15.
The closing solenoid unlatches the charged closing spring of the vacuum circuit-breaker, closing it by electrical means. Shunt releases are used for automatic tripping of vacuum circuit-breakers by suitable protection relays and for deliberate tripping by electrical means. They are intended for connection to an external power supply (DC or AC voltage) but, in special cases, may also be connected to a voltage transformer for manual operation. Current-transformer operated releases comprise a storedenergy mechanism, an unlatching mechanism and an electromagnetic system. They are used when there is no external source of auxiliary power (e.g. a battery). Tripping is effected by means of a protection relay (e.g. overcurrenttime protection) acting on the current-transformer operated release. Undervoltage releases comprise a stored-energy mechanism, an unlatching mechanism and an electromagnetic system which is permanently connected to the secondary or auxiliary voltage while the vacuum circuit-breaker is closed. If the voltage falls below a predetermined value, unlatching of the release is enabled and the circuit-breaker is opened via the stored-energy mechanism. The deliberate tripping of the undervoltage release generally takes place via an NC contact in the tripping circuit or via an NO contact by shortcircuiting the magnet coil. With this type of tripping, the short-circuit current is limited by the built-in resistors.

An electrical closing lock-out prevents unpermissible closing of the circuit-breaker. The closing lock-out releases the operation of the circuit-breaker when auxiliary voltage is available, and blocks both local manual closing and remote electrical closing mechanically when there is no auxiliary voltage available. The operating voltage of the electrical closing lock-out is the same as that of the 1st release. If constant CLOSE and OPEN commands are present at the vacuum circuit-breaker at the same time, the vacuum circuit-breaker will return to the open position after closing. It remains in this position until a new CLOSE command is given. In this manner, continuous closing and opening (= pumping) is prevented. Interlocking Mechanical interlocking for stored-energy mechanisms To interlock circuit-breaker trucks, withdrawable parts or disconnectors according to the switch position, the storedenergy mechanisms of 3AH5 circuit-breakers can be equipped with a mechanical interlocking. A sensor at the switchgear checks the position of the circuit-breaker and prevents the open circuit-breaker in a reliable way from being closed mechanically and electrically. Electrical interlocking The vacuum circuit-breakers can be integrated in electromagnetic feeder or switchgear interlocks. In case of electrical interlocking, the disconnector or its operating mechanism is equipped with a magnetic lock-out mechanism. This mechanism is controlled by an auxiliary contact of the circuit-breaker, so that the disconnector can only be operated when the circuit-breaker is open. On the other hand, the vacuum circuit-breaker is also controlled by the disconnector or its operating mechanism, so that it can only be closed when the disconnector is in an end position. For this purpose, the circuit-breaker operating mechanism must be equipped with a closing lock-out (see Closing). Standards The vacuum circuit-breakers conform to the following standards:

Undervoltage releases can also be connected to voltage transformers. When the operating voltage drops to impermissibly low levels, the circuit-breaker is tripped automatically. For delayed tripping, the undervoltage release can be combined with energy stores. Closing In the standard version of the stored-energy mechanisms, 3AH5 vacuum circuit-breakers can be remote-closed electrically. They can also be closed locally by mechanical unlatching of the closing spring via pushbutton. With springoperated mechanisms, closing takes place after the charging process.

IEC 62271-100 (former IEC 60056) IEC 60694 (in future IEC 62271-1) VDE 0671 (former VDE 0670 Part 100
and VDE 0670 Part 1000) All 3AH5 vacuum circuit-breakers fulfil the endurance classes E2, M2 and C2 according to IEC 62271-100.

Current carrying capacity The rated normal currents specified in the opposite diagram have been defined according to IEC 62271-100 for an ambient temperature of + 40 C and apply to open switchgear. For enclosed switchgear the data of the switchgear manufacturer applies. At ambient temperatures below + 40 C, higher normal currents can be carried (see diagram): Characteristics curve 1 = Rated normal current 800 A Characteristics curve 2 = Rated normal current 1250 A Characteristics curve 3 = Rated normal current 2000 A Characteristics curve 4 = Rated normal current 2500 A Dielectric strength The dielectric strength of air insulation decreases with increasing altitude due to low air density. According to IEC 60694, the rated lightning impulse withstand voltage values specified in the chapter Technical Data apply to a site altitude of 1000 m above sea level. For an altitude above 1000 m, the insulation level must be corrected according to the opposite diagram. The characteristic shown applies to the rated short-duration power-frequency withstand voltage and the rated lightning impulse withstand voltage. To select the devices, the following applies: U W U0 x Ka
U U0 Ka Rated withstand voltage under standard reference atmosphere Rated withstand voltage requested for the place of installation Altitude correction factor according to the opposite diagram

Order number structure The 3AH5 vacuum circuit-breakers consist of a primary and a secondary part. The relevant data make up the 16-digit order number. The primary part covers the main electrical data of the circuit-breaker poles. The secondary part covers the auxiliary devices which are necessary for operating and controlling the vacuum circuit-breaker. Order codes Individual equipment versions, marked with 9 or Z in the 9th or 16th position, are explained more in detail by a 3-digit order code. Several order codes can be added to the order number in succession and in any sequence.

Special versions ( ) In case of special versions, -Z is added to the order number and a descriptive order code follows. If several special versions are required, the suffix -Z is listed only once. If a requested special version is not in the catalog and can therefore not be ordered via order code, it has to be identified with Y 9 9 after consultation. The agreement hereto is made between your responsible sales partner and the order processing department (PTD M C S) in our Switchgear Factory in Berlin.
