Core Advantages
Integrated Switching and Protection Structure
The 40.5kV Wind and Solar Vacuum Load Switch-Fuse Combination Unit integrates a load break switch, fuse protection, and vacuum circuit breaker into one equipment configuration. The load break switch handles normal load operation, the fuse provides short-circuit protection, and the vacuum circuit breaker performs fault current interruption.
Designed for New Energy Switching Requirements
The vacuum load break switch interruptor has a mechanical life of 5,000 operations, while the vacuum circuit breaker interruptor has a mechanical life of 10,000 operations. These parameters support switching requirements in wind and solar power systems.
Defined Short-Circuit Protection Parameters
The combination apparatus has an expected short-circuit breaking current of 31.5kA and an expected short-circuit making current of up to 80kA. The rated transfer current is 3150A, while fuse striker output energy is ≤ 4.
AC/DC 220V and 110V Operating Mechanism
The spring operating mechanism supports AC/DC 220V and 110V. The appropriate configuration can be selected according to the control power supply of the new energy station.
