SecoRMU 12kV-24kV New Compact Gas Insulated Ring Main Unit
Overview
SecoRMU is a new compact modular switchgear, with a high-quality stainless steel gas
tank containing all live parts and switching functions. The gas tank is manufactured
through a laser cutting and laser welding process. The entire series includes individualgas tank solution and common-gas tank solution. Each unit is extendable and uses a

User Interface
The adjustment of WIC1 protection functions is done via DIP switches. Each protective parameter is binary coded set by 4 DIP switches.
Therefore, there are 16 incorporations available in total. It is also possible to read out the stored fault values and setting values of the
WIC1.
The interface can be found at the left of the relay and also above the DIP switch block.

Outdoor Switching Substation
The outdoor ring main unit substation adopts a metal-enclosed
prefabricated structure, with excellent mechanical strength. Its
protection degree can reach IP53, which protect the machine
foreign objects (like small animals).
Ventilation
