Thanks to the double bus-bar solution, the BRDA switchgear may be used in conditions, where reliability and flexibility of switching operations between two different power sources secure the continuity of power supply. This is very essential for objects of critical destination, production plants in processing industry and in electrical power distribution system of weak networks. Main features High safety of operation of MV switchgears BRDA has been obtained due to properly reinforced cubicle construction and decompression channels, which ensure high resistance to internal electric arc effect. In fault conditions the metal covers (blow-out valves) installed on the top of cubicle open under pressure of gases generating during burning of internal arc and secure blow-out of these gases out of switchgear. CROSS - SECTION OF THE CUBICLE The BRDA switchgear system features: switchgears have two independent systems of bus-bar metal-clad with two separate bus-bar compartments indoor air insulated compartments separated with metallic partitions withdrawable circuit breaker (can be transported outside the cubicle on a separate trolley) internal arc tested equipped with innovative equipment for switching, measurement and control functions The construction of BRDA cubicles is made of steel sheets covered by zinc or aluminum-zinc coating. Doors and outside shields are covered with powder varnish in a colour adjusted to the Client’s demands. The cubicle construction is appropriately strengthened to assure high endurance of the action of the internal electric arc. The system of mechanical and electrical interlockings ensures safety of operation. All compartments are equipped with metal covers to ensure gases blow-out in fault conditions. The switchgear system BRDA allows flexible designing of various configurations of MV part in distribution substations.
