SafeRing and SafePlus ABB switchgears for secondary distribution Evolution: - more functionality,smaller dimensions Secondary distribution switchgears have been subject to a significant development the recent 20 years. The traditional switching cells are substituted with complete switchgear systems. Specific functions as grounding, disconnecting, cable connections, busbar extension, protection and switching have become integrated features in compact functional units. Compact switchgear systems catered for customers MV application needs. ABB has always been a part of this development. The current ABB SafePlus range satisfies the most complex system specifications. The most unique specialisation is the development of the cable ring switchgear. The numerous public distribution substations requested a unified switching functionality that evolved into the Ring Main Unit concept. ABB SafeRing range is one major contributor to this specialisation. Two Products One range ABB SafeRing is adapted to the needs in the immense utility distribution network. ABB SafePlus offers more in terms of flexibility and electrical capacity. Both switchgears offer the same customer interface. Customers involvement: The applied functionality in ABB SafeRing and SafePlus is a result of input from customers all over the world. Key customers are continuously involved with ABB design staff to ensure optimised switchgear operation. The functionality will always find its background from customer demands.
Dielectric Simulation
Electrical and mechanical capability results from more than 100 years of ABB development. Personnel safety and service Safety is not only a specification and rating issue, but also a real life experience. Standards and associated testing will disclose weakness at time of testing. ABB takes this further to be an objective related to durability and repetitive manufacturing quality. All products are manufactured in accordance with ISO 9001.The latest edition of relevant IEC standards will always apply to our continuous test programme. Features for further enhancing personnel safety are available. Integrated functionality is a key objective to reduce the number of moving components, further reducing the risk of any mechanical defect.

4.1 General
SafePlus is a metal enclosed compact switchgear system for up to 24 kV distribution applications. The switchgear has a unique flexibility due to its extendibility and the possible combination of fully modular and semi modular configurations. When SafePlus is used in a fully modular configuration with covered external busbars, SafePlus is a metal clad switchgear. When combined with SafeRing, which is ABBs standard ring main unit, they represent a complete solution for 12/24 kV distribution networks. SafePlus and SafeRing have identical user interfaces. SafePlus is a completely sealed system with a stainless steel tank containing all the live parts and switching functions. A sealed steel tank with constant atmospheric conditions ensures a high level of reliability as well as personnel safety and a virtually maintenance-free system. As an option an external busbar can be provided to obtain full modularity. This external busbar kit has to be mounted to the switchgears on site. And it is fully insulated and screened to ensure the reliability and climatic independence. The SafePlus system offers a choice of either a switch fuse combination or a circuit breaker with relay for protection of the transformer. SafePlus accommodates a wide selection of protection relays for most applications. SafePlus can also be supplied with or retrofitted with remote control and monitoring equipment

Covers
Upper and lower front cover have a thickness of 3 millimeter aluminium which is covered with a polycarbonate foil. These foils contain the mimic diagram of the main circuit with the position indicators for the switching devices. Background colour for these foils are RAL 7012. The upper front cover is removable. The lower front cover can be opened. There are four different cable compartment covers; standard, with inspection window, arc proof and finally one with extra depth for parallel cables. These covers are manufactured from 1.25 millimeter aluzink (not the arc proof cover) and are powder painted with colour RAL 7035. All cable compartment covers are removable. Each module has a separate cable compartment that is divided from the others by means of partition walls. Also these partition walls can easily be removed, allowing a comfortable access for connection of cables. A vertical partition wall is fitted to divide the cable compartment(s) from the rear side of the switchgear / ring main unit. In case of an arc fault inside the SF6 tank, followed by an opening of the pressure relief in the bottom of the tank, this partition wall will prevent the hot gases blowing out from the pressure relief to enter the cable compartments. Side covers are made of 2 millimeter hot rolled steel and powder painted with colour RAL 7035.

Vacuum Circuit Breaker Module
5.3
The vacuum circuit breaker (V-Module) uses vacuum bottles as interrupters of the current. In series with the circuit breaker main circuit is connected a three-position disconnector earthing switch which is identical to the cable switch except the switch has no interrupting capacity. The operation between vacuum circuit breaker and disconnector/earthing switch is mechanically interlocked.
28
SafePlus/SafeRing
Fuse Switch Module
5.4
The Fuse switch (F-Module) has a three positioning switch disconnector and earthing switch identical to the cable switch.(C-Module) By means of the fuse tripping device it operates as a switch-fuse combination. There is a double earthing switch which in the earthed position connects earth to both sides of the fuses simultaneously. Both earthing switches are operated in one operation. The fuse switch and earthing switch is mechanically interlocked to prevent hazardous access to the fuses. The lower cover which gives access to the fuses is also mechanically interlocked with the earthing switch.

Cable Bushings
5.5
The connection of the HV-cable is made by cable bushings. The bushings are made of cast resin with moulded in conductors. In addition, a screen is moulded in to control the electrical field and is also used as the main capacitor supplying the voltage indicators. ABB has produced bushings for SF6 switchgears since 1985. A very high number of units have been installed worldwide on distribution networks, power stations and industrial complexes. Used together with full-screened connectors an ideal solution for areas with a history of humidity or condensation problems is achieved. The bushings are designed according to DIN 47636. There are 5 different cable bushings: - 200 series with plug-in contact (In=200A) - 400 series with M16 bolted contact (In=630A) - 400 series with M16 bolted contact and integrated voltage and current sensors (In=630A) - 400 series with plug-in contact (In=400A) - 600 series with M16 bolted contact (In=630A) For more details, please see chapter 6.8

Arc Suppressor
5.6
The Arc Suppressor is an optimal quick-make short circuit device with a mechanical pressure detector that can be installed with each incoming feeder inside the sealed SF6 tank of the SafeRing and SafePlus switchgear. If an arc fault should occur inside the SF6 tank the pressure detector of the Arc Suppressor will automatically trip the short circuit device of the incoming feeder(s) within milliseconds, thereby transforming the arc fault into a bolted fault. The arc is extinguished without any emission of hot gases and the bolted short circuit will be interrupted by the upstream circuit breaker. No links or release mechanisms are installed outside the tank. Corrosion and any enviromental influences are therefore prevented, giving optimum reliability. The pressure detector is insensitive to pressure changes due to variation in atmospheric temperature or pressure as well as external phenomena such as vibrations or shocks. The arc suppressor will operate for short-circuit currents in the range of 1kArms to 21kArms and it will reduce the generated arc energy to less than 5% of the arc energy released during an arcing time of 1 sec. A signalling device (1NO) will indicate local or remote the tripping of one or more arc suppressors. Since the system is self-contained, an internal arc fault will have no impact on the surroundings. No arc fault tests have to be repeated in combination with channel release systems or transformer stations. The costs of the cleaning work which has to be done after an internal arc fault when the release flap has opened, are reduced to zero.

SafePlus/SafeRing
Completely Sealed System
5.7
SafeRing/SafePlus are switchgears types using gas SF6 (Sulfur hexafluoride) as insulation and quenching medium. The SF6 is contained in a welded stainless steel tank. The pressure system is defined as a sealed for life system with an operating life time of 30 years. The leakage rate is less than 0,1% per year. Robot welding In order to guaranty a reliable and tight welding, all welding work is carried out by computer controlled robots. Electrical and mechanical bushings penetrating the tank are clamped and sealed to the tank by high quality O-rings. The mechanical bushing has in addition a rotating shaft which connect the shaft of the switch to the corresponding shaft of the mechanism. The rotating shaft is sealed by a double set of gas seals. All SF6 tanks have to pass a leakage test, before gas filling. Leakage test and gas filling are done inside a vacuum chamber. The first step in the leakage test is to evacuate all air inside both SF6 tank and vacuum chamber simultaneously. Then SF6 tank is filled with Helium. Due to the characteristics of Helium this test will detect absolutely all possible leakages. If the SF6 tank passes this test, the Helium has to be evacuated and replaced by SF6. The SF6 tank has a degree of protection of IP67. This means the SF6 tank can be immersed into water and still maintain all functions in a satisfactory way.

Cable Test Bushings
5.8
As an option, both C and De modules can be equipped with cable test bushings situated behind the lower front cover. This cover can be interlocked against the earthing switch to avoid access to the cable test compartment before earthing switch is in closed position. When these bushings are mounted, cable insulation test can easily be done according to the following procedure:

Mechanisms and Interlocks
5.9
C-module

V-module
All operating mechanisms are situated outside the SF6 tank behind the front covers with degree of protection of IP2X. This gives the opportunity of easy access to all operating mechanisms if retrofit or service should be required. The speed of operation of these mechanisms are independent of the operator. To prevent access to cable compartment before earthing switch is in closed position, all mechanisms can as an option be supplied with mechanical interlocks which make it impossible to remove the cable compartment covers. It will then also be impossible to operate earthing switch to open position before cable compartment cover is mounted properly. Each mechanism is equipped with a padlocking device. When adding a padlock to this device, the access to operate the mechanism will be impossible. This device has three holes with diameter 9 millimeter. All operating mechanisms are equipped with position indicators for all switches. In order to achive true indication, indicators are directly connected to the operating shafts of the switches inside the SF6 tank, please see shafts shown with red colour on next page. Operating handle has an anti-reflex system which prevents an immediate re-operation of the switch. All steel parts have been electroplated with zinc and and then olive chromated.

Cable switch module and Busbar sectionalizer with load break switch (C-mechanism) The mechanism (3PKE) has two operating shafts; the upper one for the load break switch and the lower one for the earthing switch. Both shafts are single spring operated and operate one common shaft which is directly connected to the three position switch (CFE-C) inside the SF6 tank. When both load break switch and earthing switch are in open position, the switch satisfies the specifications of disconnector. Due to the mechanical interlock between the upper and lower operating shaft, it is impossible to operate the load break switch when earthing switch is in earthed position or operate the earthing switch when the load break switch is in closed position.
C-mechanism Fuse switch module (F-mechanism) The mechanism (3PAE) has two operating shafts; the upper one for the load break switch and the lower one for the earthing switch. The upper one operates two springs; one for closing and one for opening. Both springs are charged in one operation. By means of mechanical push buttons it is then possible to close and open the load break switch. The opening spring is always charged when the load break switch is in closed position and will then be ready to open the load break switch immediately if one of the HV fuses blow. The blown fuse(s) has/have to be replaced before the operator will be able to close the load break switch again. According to IEC Publ.282-1, all three fuse links should be replaced, even if only one or two have operated. The lower shaft is single spring operated. Both operating shafts operate one common shaft which is directly connected to the three position switch (CFE-F) inside the SF6 tank. Due to the mechanical interlock between the upper and lower operating shaft, it is impossible to operate the load break switch when earthing switch is in earthed position or operate the earthing switch when the load break switch is in closed position. It will also be impossible to get access to the fuse compartment before earthing switch is in closed position. Air SF6 Vacuum circuit breaker and Busbar sectionalizer with circuit breaker (V-mechanism) These two modules have two mechanisms; the upper one (2PA) with one operating shaft is for circuit breaker and the lower (3PKE) one with two operating shafts is for disconnector and earthing switch. The upper mechanism has two operating springs; one for closing and one for opening. Both springs are charged in one operation. By means of mechanical push buttons it is then possible to close and open the circuit breaker. The opening spring is always charged when the circuit breaker is in closed position and will then be ready to open immediately if the protection relay gives a trip signal. However a quick reclosing is not possible. If the mechanism is equipped with a motor operation a reclosing will take approx. 10 seconds. The lower mechanism is identical to the one described above for Cable switch module. There is a mechanical interlock between these two mechanisms which prevents operating of the disconnector and earthing switch when the circuit breaker is in closed position. When the earthing switch is in closed position it will be impossible to operate the disconnector, but the circuit breaker can be closed for testing purpose.

External Busbars
5.10
On the top of all SafeRing and SafePlus switchgears it is possible as an option to have bushings for connection of external busbars on the leftmost and the rightmost module. For a SafePlus switchgear consisting of only one module (which is both leftmost and rightmost in one module), only one set of bushings on the top is necessary. When bushings are mounted on the top, you will have these possibilities: 1. When adding a dead end receptacle to each of these bushings, SafeRing/SafePlus will be prepared for future busbar extension.
SafePlus prepared for future extension on right hand side
2.
With a special designed external busbars kit, it will be possible to connect two or more sections. Since a 5-ways switchgear is the maximum size within one common SF6 tank, the busbar kit allows a configuration with more than 5 modules. The installation of the external busbars has to de done on site, see separate manual for installation instructions,NOPOWSP 6006 GB.

The busbars between the modules and the end adapters used on the leftmost and rightmost module are identical to the parts used in the previous example. For the three modules in the middle a special cross adapter is used.

Base Frame
6.1
When SafeRing or SafePlus are placed directly on a floor, there will be a height of 595 millimeter up to the centre of the cable bushings. If cable trench is missing, the height might be too low. It is then possible to put an additonal base frame between the floor and the switchgear. This base frame is available in two different heights; 290 and 450 millimeter. When using the one with 290 millimeter height, it will give the same height as our previous switchgear type RGC when it was mounted on a standard RGC base frame. Inside the standard cable compartment for the vacuum circuit breaker it will be enough space for three current transformers for protection purposes. If an earth fault transformer or an extra set of current transformers are required, an additonal base frame is necessary, please see examples on left hand side. The base frame has openings for cable entrance from the bottom and from both sides. It is delivered as a kit and has Base frame 450 millimeter with earth fault transformer and an extra set of current transformers Base frame 290 millimeter with an extra set of current transformers Base frame 290 millimeter with earth fault transformer to be assembled on site.

6.2
If motor operation, coils, auxiliary switches, self powered protection relay etc. are mounted on a SafeRing or SafePlus module, the terminal blocks and the wiring are located behind the front covers. However, an additional top entry box can be mounted on the top of all SafeRing and SafePlus switchgears. Since the top entry box is fixed to the side covers of the SF6 tank, the total width of the switchgear must be covered. The top entry box allows entrance of the customers low voltage wiring from the rear side, left hand side and right hand side. Further the top entry box gives the opportunity to install ammeters with position switches, local/remote switch for motor operation etc.

Additionally all SafePlus switchgears can be supplied with low voltage compartment. This compartment may be equipped with protection relays, meters, position switches, terminal blocks etc. The compartment is fixed to the side covers of the SF6 tank and must cover the total width of the switchgear. However, each module has a separate hinged door but there are none partition walls between the modules. The low voltage compartment has the possibility for cable entry from both left or right hand side.

Motor Operation
6.4
Closing and opening operations of load-break switches and charging of the springs of the mechanisms for the circuit breaker and the switchfuse combination may be performed with a motor operation. Disconnector in the V-module and all earthing switches do not have this possibility. All motor devices require DC voltage. If control voltage is either 110 or 220 VAC, a rectifier is integrated in the control unit. Operating cycle for motor operation is CO - 3 min (i.e. it may be operated with a frequency of up to one close and one open operation every third minute). Motors and coils can easily be mounted to the mechanisms after delivery (retrofit). Test voltage for tables below is + 10/ - 15 % for motor operations and closing coils and +10/ -30% for trip coils and opening coils. The motor and coils can easily be mounted to the mechanisms after delivery (retro-fit).

Transformer Protection
6.5
SafeRing and SafePlus offer a choice between a switch fuse combination and circuit breaker in combination with relay for transformer protection. The switch fuse combination offers optimal protection against short-circuits, while the circuit breaker with relay offers better protection against low overcurrents. Circuit breaker with relay is always recommended for larger transformers. SafeRing is delivered with a 200 A rated V module. SafePlus V- module has two options: 200 or 630 A rating. Both for SafeRing and SafePlus the relay is a selfpowered relay that utilize the energy from the CTs under a fault situation, for energizing the trip coil. The self powered relay can also be used for cable protection and more details on the different relays can be found in chapter 6.7. Transformer protection with selfpowered relay. Recommeded types: MPRB 99-1.0-GF SACE PR521 SEG WIC 1
Important features V-module: - Relay behind cover. Its not necessary with any additional low voltage box for the selfpowered relays used for transformer protection. Typical for vacuum circuit breaker protection: - Good protection for short circuits - Very good for protection of overcurrents - Small fault currents are detected in an early stage.

Capacative voltage indicator SafeRing / SafePlus can be supplied with two different types of capacitive voltage indicator systems: 1. Voltage Detection System, type HR SafeRing / SafePlus can be delivered with a voltage Detection System, (VDS) acc.to IEC 61243-5. Portable voltage indicators, type VIM-1 and VIM-3 can be connected to the coupling system interface, see below for details. The VDS solution is designed and tested for reliable operation, in heavily polluted and humid environments. 2. Voltage Presence Indicating System SafeRing/SafePlus are normally delivered with a voltage Presence Indicating System (VPIS) acc. to IEC 61958. VPIS The coupling system has integrated voltage indicators (LEDs). The VPIS solution is the recommended choice for normal indoor operating conditions.
Phase balance check The coupling systems of both solutions VDS and VPIS have connection points for phase balance checking. If the VDS coupling systems have permantently connected indicators (VIM-3), these must be removed before phase balance checking can be done. Phase balance checking should be done with a recommended phase comparator, type PCM, for details see below, can be used for phase balance checking between identical coupling systems (VDS or VPIS). Particular care should be taken when phase balance checking is done between different coupling systems. In this case a universal Phase Comparator (VPC acc.to IEC 61243-5) is recommended. Phase comparators type PCM The PCM-phase comparator indicates phase balance /unbalance between two cubicles. To be used in capacitive Coupling systems, acc. to IEC 61243-5 and/or IEC 61958. Special features: No external power supply required. Voltage indication by flashing LED. Fully insulated system (IP 68) with cast resin.

Ronis Key Interlocks
6.11
As an option all load break switches except the one for switch fuse module, earthing switches and disconnectors may be equipped with Ronis key interlock type EL11AP. Ronis may be mounted according to the customers specification; either to prevent closing or opening of the switch. Ronis key interlocks can be used as follow: Two switchgears A and B are connected to each other by cables. The purpose of interlocks is to prevent closing of the earthing switch unless the load break switch on the other switchgear is locked in open position.
A 1)
B
1) One Ronis key interlock will be mounted close to the operating shaft of the load break switch in switchgear A. An identical Ronis key interlock will be mounted close to the operating shaft of the earthing switch in switchgear B. As long as the load break switch in switchgear A is in closed position, it will be impossible to remove or operate the key in the key interlock.
A 2)
2) First you have to operate this load break switch in switchgear A to open position. Then it will be possible to operate this key interlock and turn the key which extends the locking bolt. This will prevent the access to the operating shaft of this load break switch. The next thing to do then is to withdraw the key and insert it into the identical key interlock on the earthing switch of switchgear B.
A 3)
3) When the key is inserted, you will be able to operate the key interlock and turn the key which will withdraw the extended locking bolt. Then there will be access to operate this earthing switch to closed position. As long as this earthing switch is in closed position, the key will be captured and makes it impossible to close the load break switch in switchgear A.
A 4)
4) If the load break switch in switchgear B and earthing switch in switchgear A are equipped with another identical Ronis key interlock which has a different key combination than described above, it will be impossible to make an earth connection of an incoming energized cable from neither switchgear A nor B.
Another example for use of Ronis key interlocks is to prevent access to the distribution transformer before the primary side of the the transformer is connected to earth. This can be solved by means of two identical Ronis key interlocks; one mounted on the earthing switch for the distribution transformer feeder and the other one on the door in front of the transformer.

The SafeRing and SafePlus can be supplied with remote control and monitoring
equipment. The switchgears can be fitted with two different types of ABB remote terminal units; RTU211 or REC523. The REC523 is required when cable bushing with combisensor for current and voltage measurements is used. The RTU211 and REC523 can communicate with control centres of all sizes. Different types of communication media can be delivered, and offers a choice, between the communication protocols ABB RP570, IEC 870-5-101, DNP 3.0 and Modbus RTU/ASCII. Other protocols can be developed on request. The integrated remote control and monitoring unit is supplied for SafeRing in 3- and 4-way configuration. This requires two adjacent function modules of type C, De, D, Be or Sl (e.g. CC or De-C). The unit can not be supplied in a SafeRing with cable test bushings.
