What is Metal Clad Switchgear?
Metal-clad switchgear is a type of switchgear that is designed to provide a high level of protection to electrical power systems. This type of switchgear is typically used in medium voltage applications, typically between 2.4 kV and 38 kV. Metal-clad switchgear consists of separate compartments for the busbars, circuit breakers, and other components, each of which is enclosed in a separate metal enclosure. The enclosures are connected by busbars, which are also enclosed in their own metal enclosures.
The main features of metal-clad switchgear are as follows:
- Each compartment is fully enclosed in a metal housing, which provides protection against accidental contact with live parts.
- The circuit breaker is typically located in its own compartment, which is separate from the busbars.
- The busbars are enclosed in their own metal housing, which is separate from the circuit breaker compartment.
