Surge arresters aren’t in the scope of the supply.
6. LBS FEATURES
6.1. Design
The LBS shall be a compact, lightweight, maintenance free type that can be easily
installed on a frame/platform on a vertical wooden or reinforced concrete pole of
approximately 260 to 330mm diameter section supporting 20kV or 15 kV lines. The
frame/platform shall be suitable for single pole mounting and steel gantry structure
mounting. The LBS shall be complete with operating mechanism and other
components necessary for operation, including mounting hardware for the LBS main
body and the control panel (mounting frame/platform, adjustable support brackets,
clamp type terminal plates, cross arms, bolts, nuts and washers), cables with suitable
plugs connecting the main body of the LBS to the control panel as well as the supply
power transformer to the control panel. The following drawings are attached herewith:
• Drawings Nr F-5, FCP-4 & FCP-5 with the dimensions of the wooden poles and
reinforced concrete poles used in distribution overhead networks. In the drawing
Nr FCP-5 the centers of holes of the pole shall have a distance of 300 mm
between each other and the holes shall have a diameter of 22 mm to cope with
the bolt of 20 mm in diameter.
 An indicative construction drawing of an overhead telecontrolled Load Break Switch
The mechanical design and strength of the unit and all components shall be able to
bear the mechanical forces on the switch terminals when installed and during
operation. They shall withstand the electro-dynamic forces without any reduction in
reliability and/or current carrying capacity of the switches.
All non-metallic parts including insulating materials of cables shall be able to withstand
the effects of ultra violet radiation.
6.2. Operating Mechanism
The LBS shall operate either locally via an insulating hook-stick or its control panel or
remotely by a remote Central Control System.
7
The switch operating mechanism shall be a rapid open and close operation, with a
contact movement speed, independent of the operators way of handling. Any manual,
hook-stick operation will declutch the motor within the mechanism compartment for
unhindered operation. The motor drive shall be connected to the LBS with a rigid
mechanical transmission rod.
The minimum distance between the live parts of the LBS and the ground will be 5m
and the maximum distance will be 9 m. HEDNO will specify upon drawing approval the
exact lengths of the required cables (mainly 8m from control panel-RTU to the LBS
and 11m from control panel-RTU to supply power transformer).
LBS shall be able to be handled as follows:
a) The operation (ON/OFF) shall be carried out manually by means of an insulating
hook-stick. This stick is a portable tool used by HEDNO’s linemen and isn’t in
the scope of supply.
b) All three poles of the LBS shall be operated simultaneously by the operating
mechanism. Sufficient insulation between the live parts and the operating
handle shall be provided for the safety of the operator.
c) Before the switch is operated via the hook-stick, a lock handle shall be operated
(again via the hook-stick) to FREE the hook-stick mechanism. Typically, the
lock handle is operated to LOCK off the switch as a Point of Isolation when in
the OFF state. Conversely, the switch is closed (ON) by FREEING the lock
handle and operating the hook-stick mechanism. Manual operations therefore
require a two stage procedure to reduce operator error. When the lock handle
is operated to the LOCK off position, then this action inhibits both local and
remote operations of the built-in motor. The status of the lock handle shall also
be available as a volt free contact for SCADA monitoring.
An operations counter shall be provided to positively indicate the number of
operations of the LBS. The operations counter shall be clearly visible from the ground
even under bad weather conditions.
The source side and the load side of the LBS shall be interchangeable.
6.3. Provision for Remote Control
The SF6 or vacuum LBS shall be equipped with the following features to facilitate
remote control and monitoring:
a) A motor to perform OPEN and CLOSE operations and rated for a 24V actuator
supply.
b) Contacts that indicate the positional status of the switch directly fitted to the
operating mechanism.
c) For the SF6 switch, low gas pressure contacts
d) Lock handle contacts
e) Three phase set of current transformers built into the switching tank or ring
type CT installed on the bushing for current monitoring and phase/earth overcurrent fault detection.
f) Voltage sensors built into the switching tank to monitor line voltage on all six
LBS HV terminals to allow remote monitoring of supply availability from either
direction.
8
The LBS shall comprise a Remote Terminal Unit (RTU) for Remote/Local switching
facilities to select the required operating mode. The RTU shall be compatible with
HEDNO’s SCADA control and monitoring system.
6.4. Connection
LBS terminals shall be made of tin plated electrolytic copper or brass with a minimum
tin coating thickness of 15 μm. They shall have 2 holes 12 mm in diameter
longitudinally placed, and shall be suitable to be connected with plaque or coss type
terminals (these terminals aren’t in the scope of the supply). The terminals are
connected with 50 to 240 mm² Cu and Al conductors.
6.5. Degree of Protection
The LBS tank must have a minimum degree of protection IP67.
6.6. Earthing
One of the earthing terminals which are foreseen in paragraph 6.10 shall be used for
connecting the LBS metal work and mounting frame to the local earthing electrodes /
mounting structure.
6.7. Breaking and Disconnecting
The breaking chamber of the switch shall be a SF6 gas-filled type or vacuum.
The SF6 breaking chamber shall be a “hermetically sealed pressure system” suitable for
lifetime operation with a service life at least 30 years. The Bidder shall provide reference
to prove this. Extrapolation for a 30 year period of the leakage rate measured during type
testing as per IEC 62271-103 at maximum, minimum and rated pressure, so that worst
case conditions be taken into account, may be accepted to ascertain this characteristic.
The pressure inside the tank shall be according to the requirements specified in the
relevant standards. No refilling of the gas shall be required over the service life. The SF6
used shall be new in accordance with the requirements of IEC 60376.
A gas pressure gauge will be fitted indicating a GREEN zone for safe operation and a
RED zone to avoid further operations. This indicator shall be clearly visible from the
ground even under bad weather conditions.
In addition, a low pressure locking device shall operate to inhibit further operations
that is the SF6 LBS is locked in its current state (closed or open).
There will be moisture absorbing material for the retention of moisture and SF6
byproducts which shall be guaranteed for the whole lifetime of the LBS, since its
monitoring or replacement is not foreseen.
The vacuum breaking chamber shall be a “hermetically sealed system” suitable for
lifetime operation. The service life shall be at least 30 years. The Bidder shall provide
reference to prove this. Extrapolation for a 30 year period of the vacuum pressure
variation measured during type testing as per IEC 62271-103 may be accepted to
ascertain this characteristic. Furthermore the Bidder shall declare in the offer if the
vacuum breaker is equipped or not with a blocking operation as for SF6 above in a
9
case of loss of the insulating media to the lowest allowable level, or an arrangement
indicative of loss of breaking capability of the LBS. This statement shall be only
informative and not be subjected to any evaluation.
Bidders shall state the consequences of loss of vacuum on:
• The voltage withstand capability of an open circuit switch
• The ability of the LBS to switch load current
• The ability of the LBS to switch fault current (fault making).
For all the offered types of breakers comprehensive instructions shall be provided for the
actions to be taken in case of unpredictable loss of the insulation properties of the
insulating media.
The disconnecting function shall be carried out when the separation of the main
contacts is certain. It will be certain when a position indicator, driven by a reliable
arrangement directly connected to the movable contacts, indicates the breaking and
isolation position of the LBS. This arrangement shall ensure absolute kinematic
correspondence of the position indication to the movement of the break and isolation
of the LBS and shall be in full conformance with the paragraph 6.102.6 of IEC 62271103. Evaluation of the operation and reliability of the arrangement shall be carried out
during type tests of the present TD. The indicator shall be such that the position of the
switch shall be clearly visible to an observer up to nine meters below even under bad
weather conditions. This mechanical position indicator shall indicate ON/OFF position of
the LBS.
Tenderers shall describe any techniques employed for handling enclosure
overpressure that could arise from internal arcs. The switchgear shall incorporate a
pressure relief/rupture mechanism, which is of a non fragmenting design, and
designed to vent the pressure in the event of an internal arc fault.
6.8. Insulators and Bushings
The insulators shall be constructed of the following alternative materials:


this description. The tank of the LBS and the bolts shall be made of stainless steel
according to EN 10882-2 to withstand dynamic short circuit forces and the vibration of
the switch.
10
Except where specified to the contrary, all iron and steel parts shall be hot dip
galvanized after the various processes such as sawing, shearing, drilling, punching,
filing, bending, machining etc. according ISO 1461 or HEDNO specification ΧΚ11.02
and the specific coating thickness mentioned therein.
6.10. MV Surge Arrester Brackets
Six (6) brackets shall be welded to the LBS, one adjacent to each MV bushing to
enable mounting of arresters. Each bracket shall be made of stainless steel plate,
accompanied with one M12x40 bolt, one A13 washer, one B12 lock washer and one
M12 nut, as shown in the attached figure No 2 (Item 1).
Arresters are not in the scope of the supply. HEDNO purchases metal oxide surge
arresters, without gaps, with composite housing together with insulating mounting
brackets as a set (items 2 and 3 of figure 2). Each arrester’s insulating mounting
bracket shall be placed between the main body of the arrester and the bracket
offered, as shown in figure No 2. The arresters shall be mounted parallel to the
associated phase insulator.
A minimum of 300mm clearance shall be provided between phase to phase, while the
minimum clearance between points under voltage from any earthed metallic parts
shall be not less than 220mm.
A drawing of the LBS mounting arrangements with the six brackets and the arresters
fitted shall be provided with the Bid. The minimum phase to phase and phase-to-earth
clearances (including clearances to the structure) shall be indicated on the drawing.
To ensure the electrical connection of arresters earthing conductor to the common
grounding system of the structure, the LBS tank shall be equipped with two (2)
earthing studs (M12), each accompanied with two (2) washers, one (1) lock washer
and one (1) M12 nut. These studs shall be installed on the two opposite external
surfaces of the tank wall, one adjacent to the middle arrester bracket of each side of
the LBS. The studs shall be stainless steel made and of a length suitable for the
connection of four (4) coss type terminals (three for the connection of the three
arresters earthing conductors and one for the connection of the LBS metalwork to the
common grounding system of the structure).

8.5 Fault detection function
Fault detection function is required for the RTU, regarding phase fault, earth-fault and
Sensitive Earth Fault (SEF). This function shall be regulated ON or OFF independently for
phase fault, earth-fault and SEF.
The settings for this function will be:
 Adjustable, from 10 Α up to 1000 Α, with step of 1 Α for the phase fault.
 Adjustable, from 10 Α up to 1000 Α, with step of 1 Α for the earth fault.
 Adjustable from 1 to 20 A, with step of 1 A, for the SEF. There shall be two
independent stages for the SEF function. The first one (In>, t>) for sending an

order to be registered by the fault detecting circuitry. The time interval shall be
adjustable from 0,05 to 100 sec, with step of 0,01 sec for phase or earth fault and
from 1 to 100 sec, with step 0,1 sec for SEF.
The RTU indicates phase or earth ”fault” when the line voltage is dropped below the voltage
OFF-level of the Open Line Detection function after:
a. the measured phase current or earth current is higher than the pickup set value and
maintains longer than the corresponding detection time and
b. certified that the measured phase or earth overcurrent isn’t an inrush or a cold load
type overcurrent.
16
If this function is ON a signal shall be transmitted to the SCADA CCS in case of phase
fault or earth-fault higher than the pickup set and maintained longer than the detection
time.
The RTU indicates SEF “fault” after certified that the measured fault isn’t an inrush
current and when the measured SEF current (In) is higher than the pick-up set value
and maintains longer from the corresponding detection time. Especially, when the
measured SEF current and the corresponding detection time are higher than In> and
t> respectively an alarm shall be transmitted to the SCADA CCS while when the
measured SEF current and the corresponding detection time are higher than In>> and
t>> respectively the LBS shall trip to isolate the faulted section of the network.
In case of temporary fault, the fault indication can be reset by push button on the RTU
or by remote reset command. Also it can be reset automatically when the line is
energized depending on the setting.
8.6. Broken conductor function

and maintains longer than the set time an alarm shall be transmitted to the CCS.
8.8. Sectionalizer function
The LBS shall be able to be used as a sectionalizer in conjunction with an upstream
Automatic Circuit Recloser (ACR).
When the LBS’s RTU indicates “fault” according to the procedure mentioned at
paragraph 8.5, the LBS shall count one ACR operation (trip). Subsequent ACR
operations shall be counted by the LBS and when a predetermined count is reached
the LBS shall isolate the faulty circuit while the ACR is in the open position. The ACR
can then restore power to the healthy part of the system.
If the fault is of temporary nature and is cleared before the LBS count reaches the
predetermined number, the LBS shall remain closed and shall reset to its pre-fault
condition after the reset time is expired.
The number of predetermined counts for LBS tripping shall be 1, 2 or 3 and the reset
time shall be from 20 to 240 sec, with step 1 sec. The sectionalizing function shall be
set ON or OFF.
