Summary

WS-G Safe Reliable Environmentally friendly

Schneider Electric’s gas-insulated switchgear WS-G has very high safety and reliability, which can ensure the continuous and stable operation of the power system and the personal safety of operators. It also has a user-friendly operation interface, which is easy for on- site operators to operate. WS-G switchgear fully complies with the latest environmental requirements.

WS-G Simple Innovative Economical

WS-G is perfectly suitable for public and industrial power distribution networks, infrastructure engineering, mining, metallurgy, petrochemical, fuel gas, railway power supply, container bases and marine industries.

The WS-G uses a modern and innovative switchgear design concept and has a variety of options to choose from. It is a gas-insulated switchgear with rated voltage up to 40.5kV, rated current up to 3150A, and rated breaking current up to 40kA.

The WS-G is designed for single busbar or double busbar system. This compact, modular switchgear is extremely flexible and maintenance-free for its lifetime. It is also very suitable for places where space is limited or where old switches are retrofitted with existing foundations.

WS-G is an economical switch that can be spliced from the front of the switchgear when installed, extended, and removed. Thanks to the innovative busbar connection B-link, no gas handling operations are required on site.

WS-G has been tested in accordance with IEC standards, European EN standards and Chinese GB standards, as well as other national standards.

User Benefits

  • No gas handling required for expansions and cabinet replacement

  • Innovative, fault-resistant busbar connections

  • Friendly operation interface

  • Operational reliability and safety of personnel handing

  • Low lifetime costs

  • Environmentally friendly and easy to recycle

 

WS-G benefits and improvements

Innovative B-Link improves busbar connection
The busbar of each ws-g switchgear is installed in an independent inflatable chamber according to the system requirements. They are integrated into the insulating gas monitoring system and are not affected by the external environment. The connection with the adjacent switch cabinet bus is through our innovative bus connection system: B-link connection.

The B-link connection system does not require any maintenance.It is easy to install at the user’s site and does not require gas treatment.When expanding or replacing the switchgear, no gas handling is required and the gas chamber is not affected.The B-link connection system does not require any maintenance. It is easy to install at the user’s site and requires no gas handling. When expanding or replacing the switchgear, no gas handling is required and the gas chamber is not affected. The voltage control technology, housing grounding, soft and durable silicone rubber insulation used in the B-link connection system make the connection of the switchgear easier and the electric field distribution more uniform.


Further advantages of the B-Link system include:
All silicone rubber insulation parts have been installed on the switch cabinet in the factory, and partial discharge test has been conducted.

The on-site installation of B-link system is visible. When the B-link connection system of the adjacent switch cabinet is disassembled, an insulation distance is formed between the separated busbars without gas treatment. If necessary, the resistance of each section of busbar can be measured separately for the entire busbar system or one switchgear.

 

Reducing space requirements and improving space utilization

The WS-G saves investment costs due to its small space footprint.The WS-G can replace the old switchgear in the existing power distribution room.When the existing switchgear is dismantled, the WS-G can be debugged in sections. Reduce power outages.

The WS-G is designed for standard wall mounting. It does not require installation channels. All operations and maintenance procedures can be done in front of the cabinet.

Freestanding mounting options is also available.

Improved switchgear management - no gas handling required on site

The ws-g does not require gas treatment for installation or expansion in the field. All inflatable chambers delivered to the site for installation have a rated inflation pressure. All inflatable chambers have been tested for leakage prevention in the factory.

No gas treatment is required for the installation and renewal of the switch cabinet on site, and it does not affect the plenum.

Cost Differences and Performance Comparison of 35kV New Energy Transformers Based on Dry-Type, Mineral Oil, and Vegetable Oil
Cost Differences and Performance Comparison of 35kV New Energy Transformers Based on Dry-Type, Mineral Oil, and Vegetable Oil
For users, when purchasing a 35kV new energy transformer, choosing between dry-type, mineral oil-filled, or vegetable oil-filled types involves multiple considerations. These include user habits, maintenance-free performance, safety and fire resistance, volume and weight, among others. However, cost differences are undoubtedly one of the most crucial factors.To illustrate the issue intuitively, this paper selects a three-level energy efficiency dual-winding new energy transformer with a rated ca

What is the connection group of a transformer?
What is the connection group of a transformer?
Transformer Connection GroupThe connection group of a transformer refers to the phase difference between the primary and secondary voltages or currents. It is determined by the winding directions of the primary and secondary coils, the labeling of their start and end terminals, and the connection mode. Expressed in a clock-like format, there are 12 groups in total, numbered from 0 to 11.The DC method is commonly used to measure the transformer's connection group, mainly to verify whether the con

Working Voltage in Power System
Working VoltageThe term "working voltage" refers to the maximum voltage that a device can withstand without sustaining damage or burning out, while ensuring the reliability, safety, and proper operation of both the device and associated circuits.For long-distance power transmission, the use of high voltage is advantageous. In AC systems, maintaining a load power factor as close to unity as possible is also economically necessary. Practically, heavy currents are more challenging to handle than hi

What is Steady State Stability in Power System?
Definition of Steady State StabilitySteady state stability is defined as the capability of an electric power system to sustain its initial operating condition following a small disturbance, or to converge to a state closely approximating the initial condition when the disturbance persists. This concept holds critical significance in power system planning and design, the development of specialized automatic control devices, the commissioning of new system components, and the adjustment of operati

What is the sequence for powering down the transformer?
What is the sequence for powering down the transformer?
The sequence for shutting down a main transformer is as follows: when de-energizing, the load side should be shut down first, followed by the power supply side. For energizing operations, the reverse order applies: the power supply side is energized first, then the load side. This is because: Energizing from the power supply side to the load side makes it easier to identify the fault range and take prompt judgment and handling measures in case of a fault, preventing the fault from spreading or e

What are the methods for switching operations of station transformers?
Let's take an auxiliary power system with two station transformers as an example. When one station transformer needs to be out of service, there are two operation methods: non-interruptive power supply and instantaneous power interruption. Generally, the method of instantaneous power interruption on the low-voltage side is preferred.The operation method for instantaneous power interruption on the low-voltage side is as follows:Open the 380V power incoming circuit breaker of the corresponding sec
