1. Techn ical Descript ion
1.1 General
8BK80 metal clad sw itchgear is of .horizontal
isolat ion & horizontal drawout type suitable for easy
extension of sw itchgear in both direct ion for system
voltage upto 24kV. The sw itchgear is designed for
single busbar system & is fully compartmentalized.
The design incorporates the set of interlocks for safe
operat ion of sw itchgear.
1.1.1 Applicat ion
The sw itchgear is suitable for use as dist ribut ion unit
for sw itching load at substat ions of elect ric supply
companies as well as for power stat ions & industrial
plants.
1.1.2 Specif ic Standards
The metal clad metal enclosed sw itchgear has been
type tested as per all the requirements of IEC 60298
"Specif icat ion for Rat ing & test ing of insulat ion of
elect rical Sw itchboards & sw itchgear for AC Voltages
above 1 kV & conforms to the standards IS3427,
IS12729. The Sw itchgear is supplied in ready
assembled condit ion. The Sw itchgear can be installed
free standing.
1.1.3 Ambient Temperature and Hum id it y
Ambient temperature is understood as the
Warn ingTo Ensure Personnel & Product Safety
This equipment carrries hazardous voltages and
moving mechanical parts that shall be controlled
remotely.
Non observance of the safety inst ruct ions w ill
result in death and / or severe personnel injury or
damage to property & environment .
Only qualif ied personnel shall work on or around
this equipment af ter becoming thoroughly familiar
w ith all warnings, safety not ices and maintenance
procedures contained herein. The
components labeled w ith the
Danger Sign shall be removed only
af ter ensuring that the supply to the
live parts behind them is de-
energized & earthed.
Successful and safe operat ion of this equipment is
dependent on perfect planning of the system,
proper handling (t ransport, storage), installat ion,
operat ion and maintenance.
temperature of the air in the sw itchboard room .
At ambient temperatures below -5°C prevailing for a
longer period the sw itchboard room has to be heated.
The air temperature in the panels should alw ays be
about 5°C above the ambient temperature to avoid
condensat ion. (Sw itch on the heater against
condensat ion!)
The hum idity of upto 95% is perm issible.
If the t ruck-type sw itchboard is exposed to a hum id
climate and rapid temperature changes, the
sw itchboard room has to be heated.
1.1.4 Sit e Alt i t ude
The rated insulat ing capacity values (rated impulse
w ithstand voltage, rated power frequency w ithstand
voltage)1 ) specif ied for the equipment are, in
accordance w ith the provisions of IEC Publicat ion 71,
based on standard atmospheric condit ions (1013 h
Pa, 20°C and 11 g/m 3 water content). i.e. sea level.
The insulat ing capacity of an insulat ion in air
decreases w ith increasing alt itude as a result of
changes in the air density. Standards promulgated by
IEC and other disregard this decrease in insulat ing
capacity for alt itude of up to 1000 m, i.e. the
decrease of approximately 9% at t his alt itude is st il l
perm issible.
The standards provide no guideline for alt itudes of
more than 1000 m w ith respect to insulat ion rat ings;
they leave t his up to an agreement between
manufacturer and user.
Our own recommendat ion is as follows:
Since this method used for rat ing insulat ion up to
alt itudes of 1000 m has proved to be sat isfactory, it
should also be applied to higher alt itudes. The
alt itude correct ion factor a should therefore be based
on the insulat ing capacity at 1000 m , which is lower
by 9% (corresponding to 0.91 or 1/1.1) than the
capacity at sea level.
The follow ing expression thus applies for the
select ion of the equipment :

bolts for sect ions are in posit ion. Then t ighten the
joining bolts, followed by Busbar bolts, followed by
Foundat ion bolts.
2.8.1 Bolt ing t he panels together
It is assumed that the f irst t ransport unit is in its f inal
posit ion and that the other unit s are posit ioned on the
foundat ion rails in the correct order but w ith an
adequate clearance between them .
It is alw ays preferable to install the central panel f irst .
This pract ice should invariably be adopted for a board
w ith 20 or more panels. Af ter installing the central
panel, the other panels can be installed on it s lef t &
right in proper sequence.
· Procedu re
- Centrally align the f irst t ransport unit on its
foundat ion. The panels must be at the correct level
(refer Fig. 14) and be absolutely vert ical. If
necessary place shims.
- under the frame uprights and
- under the bot tom rails near the 30 mm x 30 mm
cutouts for the foundation bolts.
- Remove the bolts f it ted at the lef t hand end of
each panel, as viewed from the f ront.
- Move up the second panel.
- Align this second panel on the foundat ion, raise it
to the correct level and make sure the panels stand
vert ically.
Use shims as for the f irst panel.
- Using the nuts & bolts join the adjoining panels.
- Check to see w hether the panels are t ruly ver t ical.
If necessary slacken the screw s and seal the gaps
