2.3
Handling SF6 Gas

Sulfur hexafluoride (SF6) is a colorless, odorless gas. Pure SF6, as specified in
IEC 60376, is not toxic. It is not a hazardous substance and is therefore not subject to
regulations governing hazardous materials.
The applicable international toxicity standard is IEC 61634.
Caution
When SF6 is used in high voltage switchgear, decomposition

products of varying toxicity are formed as the result of electrical
discharge and arcs.
These products can irritate mucous membranes, the respiratory
tract, and other unprotected skin surfaces.
Personnel must therefore always observe the following safety
rules when working on open switchgear:
Do not eat, drink, smoke, or store food in rooms containing
SF6 systems. This is especially important during maintenance
operations when gas compartments are open.
Do not touch parts in the vicinity of the insulating gas without
proper protective clothing and/or equipment.
Do not stir up the powdery decomposition products.
Make sure the room is well ventilated when working on indoor
breakers.
Use only the minimum number of personnel absolutely necessary for performing the work.
Wash the entire body thoroughly after work.
Personnel must be equipped with the following items when doing
any work involving used or contaminated SF6 gas:
Appropriate protective respiratory equipment such as full-face
respirator (gas mask) or respirator plus gas-tight safety goggles per DIN EN 175
Dust-tight protective suit made of nonwoven material (disposable coveralls)
Rubber gloves or disposable gloves
Rubber boots or disposable boots
After work is completed, wash the respirator, safety goggles, rubber boots and rubber gloves with water. Collect the water. Dispose
of the water and the protective coveralls separately.

Design and Operation

The HYpact hybrid integrated compact module is modular in design. It has been preassembled and tested at the factory. The module consists of three separate gas
compartments that are all monitored by the SF6 system. Each of these gas compartments houses the circuit breaker and the combination disconnector and earthing
switch for one phase.
The design of the circuit breaker is based on the successful field-proven AREVA T&D
air-insulated circuit breakers with spring operating mechanisms. When the current is
interrupted, a transition from the conductive to the insulating state occurs within a few
milliseconds. During the opening operation, an arc is formed that is quenched by gas
flow within the interrupter unit. In third-generation SF6 circuit breakers, the required
quenching pressure is generated in a pressure chamber by the energy of the arc itself
as a function of current. The operating mechanism supplies only the energy for the
contact movement and an auxiliary piston. The circuit breakers are connected with
one another by a torsion linkage and with the operating mechanism by a connecting
linkage.
The combination disconnector and earthing switch is effectively protected from interference by being located along with the circuit breaker in a housing that forms a gas
compartment. The housing contains a mushroom-shaped movable contact that can
be moved into the fixed contact of either the disconnector or the earthing switch by
means of a lever mechanism on a contact pin. In the intermediate position, both the
disconnector and the earthing switch are in open position. The contact pin is connected to the circuit breaker, and the fixed contact of the disconnector is connected to
the insulator bushing. The ring-shaped fixed contact of the earthing switch is integrated in the housing. A tension-compression linkage connects the combination disconnector-earthing switch with the mechanism.
The HYpact hybrid integrated compact module operates on the principle of integral
earthing (or grounding). This means that the earthing switch portion of the combination disconnector-earthing switch is used only to prepare for earthing (grounding). The
interrupter unit of the circuit breaker not only interrupts the current but also handles
the final earthing or grounding. This permits a simpler earthing switch design as far as
electrical requirements are concerned since the circuit breaker meets the stringent
requirements for short-circuit making capacity. A mechanical indicating device located
in the operating area of the HYpact compact module shows the various breaker positions clearly in a comprehensive mimic diagram.
Measuring devices (current transformers) can be mounted on the bushings of each
phase. A terminal box serves as the customer interface.
The transport unit (referred to below as the module) is mounted on two supports to
which the operating mechanisms and the transformer terminal box are also mounted.

3.4.1

The operating mechanism consists of a steel structure that is self-supporting and protected against corrosion. The door, floor, rear panel, removable side panels, and roof
are made of aluminum sheet.
For storing the required operating energy, helical compression springs are charged by
an electric motor via a gear unit (Figure A 3.4.1 a). Electrical actuation of the closing
and opening coils causes latches to be unlatched, which releases the energy of the
springs for operating purposes. The spring energy is transmitted to the pole columns
by the lever on the rear of the mechanism and by the drive rod and the connecting
rods.
Charging the Closing Energy Storage Mechanism
After control voltage has been applied, the motor (70.01) immediately starts up and
charges the closing spring (70.25) via the gear unit (70.04), crank wheel (70.30), and
chain (70.26). This operation is terminated once the crankpin (70.29) with linked chain
(70.26) has gone beyond top dead center and supports the roller (70.28) of the crank
wheel (70.30) on the closing latch (70.05).
At the conclusion of the charging process, the tooth space (70.27) of the crank wheel
(70.30) has reached the driving pinion. This allows the gear unit (70.04) and the motor (70.01), which has been turned off by the control cam (70.22) and the motor limit
switch (70.24), to run down and stop unimpeded without loading the closing latch
(70.05).
The repositioned motor limit switch (70.24) has closed the closing circuit, and the
spring position indicator (70.31) has been switched to "closing spring charged."
Closing Operation
The closing latch (70.05) is released by the electrical command to the closing coil
(70.06) or by operation of the manual release mechanism (70.07). The closing shaft
(70.09) is accelerated by action of the closing spring (70.25) linked to the crank wheel
(70.30).
The cam disc (70.10) turns the adjacent roller follower (70.11) in the closing direction.
The circuit breaker is closed by means of the main shaft (70.12), the drive lever
(70.18), and a coupled linkage. At the completion of the closing motion, after rotating
60, the main shaft (70.12) is lowered onto the opening latch (70.16) safely and with
low impact by a lever arm of the roller follower (70.11), thanks to the specially designed cam disc (70.10). At the same time, the cam disc (70.10) has left the roller follower (70.11), and the circuit breaker is locked in the closed position and can now be
opened.
In the course of the closing motion, the opening springs (70.20) and (1.806) are
charged. The excess residual energy is stored again in the closing spring.
Control, indicating, and latching functions at the end of the closing motion:
The auxiliary switch (70.21) that is coupled to the main shaft (70.12) has closed
the opening coil circuit and interrupted the closing circuit. The circuit breaker can
be opened electrically, but another closing operation or a pulse applied to the closing coil is prevented.
A lever (not shown) that is controlled by the main shaft (70.12) has blocked the
closing latch (70.05) and thus also mechanically prevents another closing operation.
The position indicator (70.52) has been turned by the main shaft (70.12) to the
closed position.
The motor limit switch (70.24), which is actuated by the control cam, has closed
the motor circuit.
ID No. 2 032 651
15 / 56
The closing coil circuit has been interrupted by a contact of the motor limit switch
(70.24). This prevents another electrical closing operation.
At the same time, the spring position indicator (70.31) has been set to "closing
spring discharged."
Recharging the Closing Energy Storage Mechanism
When the motor limit switch (70.24) is moved by the control cam (70.22) at the end of
the closing motion, the motor circuit is closed, and the closing spring (70.25) is automatically re-charged.
Opening Operation
The opening latch (70.16) is released by the electrical command to the opening coil
(70.99) or by operation of the manual release mechanism (70.13). The action of the
charged opening springs (70.20 and 1.8.06) causes the main shaft (70.12) and the
circuit breaker that is connected to it to be accelerated in the open direction. Towards
the end of the opening operation, the opening brake (70.17) becomes active and
brakes the moving parts of the circuit breaker and operating mechanism until they
come to a complete stop.
Control, indicating, and latching functions at the end of the opening motion:
The auxiliary switch (70.21) that is coupled to the main shaft (70.12) has interrupted the opening coil circuit and closed the closing circuit. This prevents another
electrical opening operation. An electrical closing operation is again possible.
A lever (not shown) that is controlled by the main shaft (70.12) has again released
the closing latch (70.05) for a subsequent closing operation. The circuit breaker
can be closed mechanically.
The position indicator (70.52) has been turned to the open position by the main
shaft.

Type ME1-3 Motor-Operated Mechanism for Disconnector-Earthing Switch

Manual Operation
The ME1-3 motor-operated mechanism can be operated with the hand crank in the
event of a control voltage failure or during maintenance operations. To do so, turn
the mode selector lever (70.15) to the Disconnector manual or Earthing switch
manual position.
Insert the hand crank into the crank hole so that it engages with the manual operation shaft.
The position selected for the mode selector lever (70.15) defines the position of
the locking lever so that the locking disk only permits the pre-selected operation
sequence (Disconnector closed Disconnector open or Earthing switch closed
Earthing switch open). In order to carry out both operations, the hand crank
must be removed and the mode selector lever (70.15) reset.
Blocking
Mechanical blocking is provided for the following positions:
Disconnector closed / Earthing switch open
Disconnector open / Earthing switch open
Earthing switch closed / Disconnector open
To block the mechanism, move the mode selector lever (70.15) to the desired position and insert the crank hole bolt (70.21) into the crank hole so that it engages
with the manual operating shaft (70.22) and lock it with the padlock (70.23).
When the ME1-3 motor-operated mechanism is blocked, the control and motor circuits are interrupted by the mode selector limit switch.

3.4.3
Combined Mechanical Position Indicator
In switchgear where earthing is based on the principle of integral earthing, the existing making capacity of the circuit breaker is used to reduce the electrical load on the
earthing switch. This is achieved when the earthing switch, which is located between
the circuit breaker and the disconnector, is closed while the other two devices are in
the open position. The circuit breaker is then closed again immediately after that via a
forced follow-up operation and thus the earthing process is completed. In contrast to
conventional earthing, the earthing switch in integral earthing is used solely to prepare for earthing. This difference is made clear to the user by a combined mechanical position indicator.

7.2
Checking the Contacts of the SF6 Density Monitor

For functional testing of the contacts or operating points, fill the SF6 piping with
gas.
Note
Since the ends of the SF6 piping system are equipped with check
valves, uncontrolled leaks of SF6 are prevented. A leak is simulated by pressing a poppet valve on the piping.
Disconnect the SF6 piping from all three pole columns.

Fill the SF6 piping to rated density (black dot in the green field of the density monitor dial).
Check the UW 1 contact:
Lower the SF6 pressure until the "UW1 (SF6 alarm)" value is reached.
Check operating point UW1 at contacts 1 and 2 using a multimeter.
Check the UW 2 contacts:
Lower the SF6 pressure further until the "UW2 (SF6 lockout)" value is reached.
Check operating point UW2 at contacts 3 and 4 using a multimeter.
Check the SF6 piping joints for tightness, and if necessary retighten to a torque of
30 Nm (10%).
Use two wrenches for tightening.
The SF6 density monitor is temperature-compensated, i.e.,

the ambient temperature does not affect either the indication or the alarm contacts.

Checking the Anti-Condensation Heaters of the Circuit Breaker and the

Combination Disconnector-Earthing Switch
Measure the resistance of the anti-condensation heater at the terminals in the circuit breaker operating mechanism.
Check the measured value against the reference value on the routine test certificate and enter it on the checklist.
7.4
Supply Voltages
Danger
Before connecting the supply and control cables, make sure

the unit is not energized.
Caution
As soon as the supply voltage has been applied and the

motor protection switch is turned on, the motor will charge
the closing spring.
Before applying voltage or turning on the motor protection switch, make sure that there are no objects or parts
of the body in the charging system area.
When supply voltage has been applied, the anticondensation heater will be hot. It can burn skin or clothing.
Do not touch the heater.
Insert all supply and control cables through cable glands and connect them to the
terminals in accordance with the schematic diagram.

7.6
Electrical Connection
Danger
Caution
Follow the safety instructions given in Section 2.

Before connecting the supply and control cables, make
sure the unit is not energized.
Current transformers are short-circuited by means of

earthing (or grounding) jumpers until commissioning begins. These jumpers may need to be removed.
Make sure that all earthing jumpers are installed in accordance with the applicable schematic diagram.
As soon as the supply voltage has been applied and the
motor protection switch is turned on, the circuit breaker motor will charge the closing spring.
Before applying voltage or turning on the motor protection switch, make sure that there are no objects or parts
of the body in the charging system area.
When supply voltage has been applied, the anticondensation heaters of the mechanisms will be hot. They
can burn skin or clothing.
Do not touch the heaters.
The two control and supply lines from the circuit breaker operating mechanism to
the operating mechanism of the combination disconnector-earthing switch have
been connected at the factory by a plug-and-socket connector.
The supports must be earthed (grounded) at the earthing (grounding) holes.
Connections to the high voltage terminals must correspond to the respective dimension diagram. Brush the terminal faces and lubricate them with
SF 1377 silicone grease.

SF6 System
7.7.1
Filling the Breaker with SF6
Danger
Improper transport or handling can result in damage to the

composite insulators. If this is the case, bursting may occur
when equipment is filled to rated pressure.
To avoid serious accidents, inspect the equipment visually for damage before filling it with SF6.
While the breaker is being filled with SF6, all personnel
must be in a protected location or at a safe distance
from the equipment (at least 40 m).
Caution
Important
During the filling operation, the pressure-reducing valve of

the gas-filling device must not be set any higher than 1.1
times the rated SF6 pressure. If this pressure is exceeded,
it may lead to actuation of the breaker's pressure-relief device. The filling pressure is set manually by adjusting the
pressure-reducing valve.
The rated pressure pe is given on the respective nameplate.
If there is no nameplate, the rated pressure can be read on
the density meter dial.
If there is any doubt about SF6 quality (when using unsealed SF6 cylinders, for example), check the dewpoint
of the SF6 gas after the filling operation.
Purge the hose of the gas-filling device with SF6 before
the filling operation.
The density monitor can be checked against the pressure curve shown below by using a test manometer and
a thermometer.
Connect the supply hose of the gas-filling device (SF6 cylinder with pressurereducing valve or gas cart) to the supply connection (DILO type, DN 8).
Fill the HYpact circuit breaker to rated pressure. The rated pressure is indicated by
the black dot at the end of the green field on the density monitor dial.
After a temperature equalization period of approximately 1 hour, check the SF6
pressure again and correct it, if necessary.
Check all SF6 piping sealing points for leaktightness using an SF6 leak detector.

Functional Testing
Danger
Caution
Follow the safety instructions given in Section 2.

Never operate the circuit breaker when the SF6 pressure
is below the lockout value (red area of the density monitor scale).
During test operations, all personnel must be in a protected location or at a safe distance (at least 40 m) from
the equipment.
Long-lasting voltage loading may destroy the shunt release

coils. The internal protective circuit only prevents excessive
voltage loading when the breaker has been properly connected.
Never connect coils directly to the control voltage.
Connect coils only via the terminals provided.
7.8.1
Test Operations
Carry out five closing and five opening operations by remote control.
Operate using local control (optional feature) in both closed and open positions.
7.8.2
Motor Charging Time of the Closing Spring
After each closing operation, the motor will charge the closing spring. Once the spring
is charged, the motor circuit is automatically interrupted by the motor limit switch. The
position indicator for the closing spring will then show "spring charged."
Measure the motor charging time after a closing operation.
Check the measured charging time against the reference values in the routine test
certificate and enter it on the checklist.
7.8.3
Operating Times
The closing time is the time from the start of the tripping pulse to the point when the
contacts touch.
The opening time is the time from the start of the tripping pulse to the point when the
contacts separate.
Attach test leads for measuring operating times to the pole columns of the circuit
breaker and connect them to the measuring device.
Carry out one closing operation and one opening operation while measuring the
operating times.
Check the measured operating times against the reference values in the routine
test certificate and enter them on the checklist.
ID No. 2 032 651
51 / 56
7.8.4
Manual Operation
To prevent accidental operation, the manual operating levers are locked by the locking plate (14) and locking screws (15) (see Figure A 3.4.1 b).
Loosen the locking screws approximately one full turn and move the locking plate
downward and to the left.
Carry out one closing operation and one opening operation using the manual operating mechanism.
Close the locking plate and secure it again with the locking screws.
If the circuit breaker is operating properly, it will immediately carry out the operations.
Caution
When the manual operating mechanism is being used, one

operation will be carried out by circumventing all electrical
interlocks.
Always check the SF6 pressure before any manual operation.
7.8.5
Anti-Pumping System
The anti-pumping system guarantees that the circuit breaker will always reach the
open position in situations in which both a closing and an opening command have
been issued.
To check operation of the anti-pumping system, move the breaker first to the open
position.
While continuously applying an opening command, also give a closing command.
If the circuit breaker is operating properly, it will execute only one closing operation
and one opening operation.
For the next testing step, move the breaker to the closed position.
While continuously applying a closing command, give also an opening command.
If the circuit breaker is operating properly, it will execute only one opening operation.
The anti-pumping system is automatically reset when there are no more operating
commands.
7.8.6
Functional Lockout
Jumper the density monitor contacts at the terminal strip.
Give one closing command and one opening command.
If the circuit breaker is operating properly, it will not execute an operation.
Remove the jumpers from the terminal strip.
7.8.7
Final Tasks
Remove all testing and measuring equipment from the breaker.
Clean up the erection site.
The breaker is ready to be connected to the high voltage system.

Handling and On-Site Testing of Current Transformers
7.9.1
Handling
Current transformers (CTs) are designed as low-power transformers and are provided
for the connection of electrical protective and measuring equipment under field conditions.
To prevent hazards caused by high voltages, current transformers must never be operated with an open circuit or with
fuse protection at the electrical terminals on the secondary
side. One terminal on the secondary side must be securely
earthed or grounded so that the earth potential (potential to
ground) will be clearly defined.
Danger
Use extreme caution when handling current transformers in order to ensure that the
insulation is not damaged and also that no additional electrical and mechanical loads
are applied to the magnetic core material; such loads could have a negative effect on
the magnetic properties of the core material over the long term.
After these devices have been received, inspect them visually to make sure that they
do not show any sign of external damage, including moisture.
7.9.2
On-Site Testing
The current transformers that are used have already undergone routine testing at the
factory in compliance with applicable standards so that on-site testing can be reduced
to a minimum.
Check the devices for damage and make sure that the current transformers have
been properly connected electrically on the secondary side and properly earthed
(grounded).
Further inspection and testing of current transformers in compliance with special customer specifications may include the following procedures:
Checking the terminal markings

Testing the insulation property (dielectric strength) of the secondary winding
Testing the current transformation ratio and the connected load
Polarity testing
Measuring the magnetizing current for protection cores
Such procedures are not included in our on-site inspection and testing program and
may only be performed by experienced and trained technicians.
Performance of these additional tests for current transformers also requires the availability of special testing and measuring instruments on site.
Danger
Current transformers must never be operated with open, unearthed (ungrounded) secondary circuits.
Current in the primary circuit with an open secondary circuit generates hazardous high voltages that will destroy the current transformer and endanger the lives and health of personnel.
If it should become necessary to perform any of the tests listed above, then both the
appropriate technical personnel and the proper testing and measuring equipment are
available at our Product Service Center on request.

Instructions for Troubleshooting the Control System
If operating commands are delayed or are not executed, proceed as follows:

Check the spring charging state.
Measure the control voltage.
Interrupt the control circuits.
Check the SF6 pressure.
Check the terminal connections to make sure they are tight and properly connected.
Check the wiring against the schematic diagrams and correct, if necessary.
Check the shunt releases and replace any defective coils after determining and
eliminating the cause of any overload.
Check any contactors located in the path of the faulty control circuit and replace
them, if necessary.
If any defect is found in the SF6 density monitor, replace the monitor.

Inspection, Maintenance and Reconditioning
Inspection
On an occasional basis during routine inspections, after 6 years at the
latest.
Maintenance After 12 and 24 years.
Reconditioning
After 2500 operations at rated normal current or
after a total current as shown in Figure A 9.
Caution
Under certain operating conditions, such as operation of

reactors, capacitor banks (especially back-to-back conditions), and series gaps, reconditioning will be necessary after fewer operations.
Circuit breaker maintenance may only be performed by
qualified personnel, as described in Section 2.1.
The time intervals given above are based on empirical
values determined over many years of field experience.
Regionally applicable standards and regulations may
specify shorter intervals.
Important
Training seminars are held on a regular basis at the manufacturer's plant. If necessary, technical personnel can also be requested at any time.
Replacement of the arcing contacts is necessary if a total current (effective value of
the short-circuit breaking current) is reached. Figure A 9 shows the relationship between the number of operations under normal operating conditions and the breaking
current.
