Core Advantages
40.5kV High-Voltage Level for Larger Capacity Systems
Compared with 12kV products, the 40.5kV indoor VCB suits higher-voltage distribution systems. It offers 1250A, 1600A, and 2000A rated current options, with 25kA and 31.5kA short-circuit breaking capacities. Flexible selection matches different loads and fault levels.
≤80ms Opening Time for Fast Fault Clearing
Opening time directly affects protection speed. ≤80ms helps quickly isolate faults, reducing equipment damage and outage scope. With the O-0.3s-CO-180s-CO operating sequence, it meets most high-voltage distribution requirements.
Dedicated Capacitor Bank Switching Capability
Built-in capacitor bank switching capability: 630A for single capacitor bank, 400A for back-to-back capacitor bank. No additional dedicated switching device is required, simplifying switchgear design.
Flexible Control Voltage Matching
AC/DC 110V and 220V operating voltage options adapt to different switchgear control power supplies. For replacement projects, simply confirm the original control voltage to select the corresponding configuration.
Factory Direct, Better Price at Equivalent IEC Configuration

FAQ (Specific to 40.5kV Indoor VCB)
Q1: What is the essential difference between a 40.5kV indoor VCB and an outdoor pole-mounted VCB?
A: Indoor products are installed inside switchgear, relying on the cabinet for protection and insulation distance. Outdoor products must withstand rain, dust, and temperature extremes, with dedicated outdoor design for insulation, sealing, mechanism protection, and mounting. Application scenarios and selection logic differ.
Q2: What are the benefits of the handcart design?
A: The handcart-type breaker can be racked in and out of the switchgear for maintenance, replacement, and testing. Compared with fixed installation, it reduces downtime. For replacement projects, simply confirm the switchgear model and handcart compatibility.
Q3: Can it be used for capacitor bank switching?
A: Yes. The 40.5kV Indoor High Voltage Vacuum Circuit Breaker offers 630A single capacitor bank breaking current and 400A back-to-back capacitor bank breaking current. Please provide capacitor bank configuration and switching requirements during selection.
Q4: How to choose the control voltage?
A: AC/DC 110V and 220V operating voltage options are available. Select according to switchgear control power. For replacement projects, confirm the original control voltage.
Q5: What information is needed for a replacement project?
A: Please provide original breaker model, switchgear information, control voltage, mounting dimension drawings, main electrical parameters, and quantity. We will review compatibility before production.
Q6: What does opening time ≤80ms mean?
A: Opening time is the duration from receiving the opening signal to arc extinction. ≤80ms helps quickly isolate faults, reducing equipment damage and outage scope, meeting most high-voltage distribution protection requirements.
Q7: Is 10,000 operations mechanical life sufficient?
A: 10,000 operations suits most indoor high-voltage distribution scenarios. Based on daily operation frequency, e.g., 5 operations per day supports about 5.5 years; 2 operations per day supports about 13 years. Actual maintenance cycle depends on environment and frequency.
Q8: Are you a factory or a trader? Do you support factory audits?
A: Dongfa Intelligent is a 2,000+ m² own factory in Yueqing, Zhejiang, founded in 2012, 14 years of manufacturing experience. Factory audits are supported. You are welcome to visit.
Q9: Is MOQ 1 unit true? What is the lead time?
A: Standard products support MOQ 1 unit. Standard lead time: 7-15 working days. Custom products: 15-30 working days. Urgent orders can be prioritized.
Q10: What information is needed for a quotation?
A: Please provide rated current, short-circuit breaking current, control voltage, capacitor bank switching requirements, switchgear information, and quantity. Drawings recommended for replacement projects.
