A major plus point

Schneider Electric has integrated a functional organization into each of its units, the main purpose of which is to check quality and ensure the adherence to standards. This procedure is: b the same throughout the different departments b recognized by numerous approved customers and organizations. Above all, it is our strict application of this functional organization that has enabled us to obtain the recognition of an independent organization, the French Association for Quality Assurance (Association Franaise pour lAssurance Qualit, or (AFAQ). The RM6 design and production quality system has been certied as being in conformity with the requirements of the ISO 9001: 2008 quality assurance model.
PE58290
Rigorous, systematic checks

During the manufacture of each RM6, it undergoes systematic routine tests, the aim of which is to check quality and conformity: b tightness check b lling pressure check b opening and closing speed measurement b operating torque measurement b partial discharge check b dielectric check b conformity with drawings and diagrams. The quality control department records and signs the results obtained on the test certicate for each device. There is zero SF6 emission during the gas lling and tightness control process.

RM6 switchgear description
RM6 switchgear comprises 1 to 4 integrated, low dimension functional units. This self-contained, totally insulated unit comprises: b a stainless steel, gas-tight metal enclosure, sealed for life, which groups together the live parts, switch-disconnector, earthing switch, fuse switch or the circuit breaker b one to four cable compartments with interfaces for connection to the network or to the transformer b a low voltage cabinet b an electrical operating mechanism cabinet b a fuse chamber compartment for fused switch-disconnectors or fuse switches. The performance characteristics obtained by the RM6 meet the denition of a sealed pressure system laid down in the IEC recommendations. The switch-disconnector and the earthing switch offer the operator all necessary usage guarantees: Tightness The enclosure is lled with SF6 at a 0.2 bar gauge pressure. It is sealed for life after lling. Its tightness, which is systematically checked at the factory, gives the switchgear an expected lifetime of 30 years. No maintenance of live parts is necessary with the RM6 breaking. Switch-disconnector Electrical arc extinction is obtained using the SF6 puffer technique. Circuit breaker Electrical arc extinction is obtained using the rotating arc technique plus SF6 auto-expansion, allowing breaking of all currents up to the short-circuit current.
PE58293
PE56812
A range that is extensible on site

When harsh climatic conditions or environmental restrictions make it necessary to use compact switchgear, but the foreseeable evolution of the power distribution network makes it necessary to provide for future changes, RM6 offers a range of extensible switchgear. The addition of one or more functional units can be carried out by simply adding modules that are connected to each other at busbar level by directed eld bushings. This very simple operation can be carried out on-site: b without handling any gas b without any special tooling b without any particular preparation of the oor. The only technical limitation to the evolution of an extensible RM6 switchboard is therefore the rated current acceptable by the busbar: 630 A at 40C.
055749
Insensitivity to the environment

Complete insulation
b A metal enclosure made of stainless steel, which is unpainted and gas-tight (IP67), contains the live parts of the switchgear and the busbars. b Three sealed fuse chambers, which are disconnectable and metallized on the outside, insulate the fuses from dust, humidity... b Metallization of the fuse chambers and directed eld terminal connectors connes the electrical eld in the solid insulation. Taken together, the above elements provide the RM6 with genuine total insulation which makes the switchgear completely insensitive to environmental conditions, dust, extreme humidity, temporary soaking. (IP67: immersion for 30 minutes, as laid down in IEC standard 60529, 14.2.7).

Switchgear
Switch-disconnectors and circuit breakers have similar architecture: b a moving contact assembly with 3 stable positions (closed, open and earthed) moves vertically (see sketch). Its design makes simultaneous closing of the switch or circuit breaker and the earthing switch impossible. b the earthing switch has a short-circuit making capacity, as required by the standards. b the RM6 combines both the isolating and interrupting function. b the earth collector has the correct dimensions for the network. b access to the cable compartment can be interlocked with the earthing switch and/ or the switch or circuit breaker.
3 stable position switch
Reliable operating mechanisms

The electrical and mechanical operating mechanisms are located behind a front plate displaying the mimic diagram of the switchgear status (closed, open, earthed): b closing: the moving contact assembly is manipulated by means of a fast-acting operating mechanism. Outside these manipulations, no energy is stored. For the circuit breaker and the fuse-switch combination, the opening mechanism is charged in the same movement as the closing of the contacts. b opening: opening of the switch is carried out using the same fast-acting mechanism, manipulated in the opposite direction. For the circuit breaker and fuse-switch combination, opening is actuated by: v a pushbutton v a fault. b earthing: a specic operating shaft closes and opens the earthing contacts. The hole providing access to the shaft is blocked by a cover which can be opened if the switch or circuit breaker is open, and remains locked when it is closed. b switchgear status indicators: are placed directly on the moving contact assembly operating shafts. They give a denite indication of the position of the switchgear (attachment A of IEC standard 62271-102). b operating lever: this is designed with an anti-reex device which prevents any attempt to immediately reopen the switch-disconnector or the earthing switch after closing. b padlocking facilities: 1 to 3 padlocks can be used to prevent: v access to the switch or circuit breaker operating shaft v access to the earthing switch operating shaft v operation of the opening pushbutton.
PE58294 055746
Earthing display
b Earthing switch closed position indicators: these are located on the upper part of the RM6. They can be seen through the transparent earthing covers, when the earthing switch is closed.
Internal arc withstand

The robust, reliable and environmentally insensitive design of the RM6 makes it highly improbable that a fault will appear inside the switchgear. Nevertheless, in order to ensure maximum personal safety, the RM6 is designed to withstand an internal arc supplied by a rated short-circuit current for 1 second, without any danger to the operator. Accidental overpressure due to an internal arc is limited by the opening of the safety valve, at the bottom of the metal enclosure. The internal arc withstand of the tank is of 20 kA 1 s. With the option of the internal arc in cable compartment, the RM6 cubicle has an internal arc withstand up to 20 kA 1 s, which meets all the criteria of IAC class A-FL as dened by IEC 62271-200 standard, appendix A. The gas is released to the rear or to the bottom of the RM6 without affecting conditions in the front. When the gas is exhausted to the rear, the maximum internal arc withstand is of 16 kA 1 s. In case the gas is exhausted to the bottom, the internal arc withstand is up to 20 kA 1 s.

Operating safety
Cable insulation test
In order to test cable insulation or look for faults, it is possible to inject a direct current of up to 42 kVdc for 15 minutes through the cables via the RM6, without disconnecting the connecting devices. The earthing switch is closed and the moving earthing connection is opened in order to inject the voltage via the earthing covers. This system, a built-in feature of the RM6, requires the use of injection ngers (supplied as an option).

Voltage indicator lamps

A device (supplied as an option) on all functional units makes it possible to check the presence (or absence) of voltage in the cables. Two types of indicator can be proposed according to network operating habits: b a device with built-lamps, of the VPIS type (Voltage Presence Indicating System) complying with standard IEC 62271-206.

Application
b Entry level MV/LV transformer protection b Dependent-time phase overcurrent tripping curve dedicated to MV/LV transformer protection b Denite-time earth fault protection b Phase current and peak demand current measurement.
Schneider Electric recommends circuit breakers for transformer protection instead of fuses. They offer the following advantages: b Easy to set b Better discrimination with other MV and LV protection devices b Improved protection performance for inrush currents, overloads, low magnitude phase faults and earth faults b Greater harsh climate withstand b Reduced maintenance and spare parts b Availability of additional functions such as measurement, diagnostics and remote monitoring And with the recent development of low cost circuit breakers and self-powered relays, life time costs are now equivalent to those of traditional MV switch fuse solutions.

Automatic transfer systems
Because a MV power supply interruption is unacceptable especially in critical applications, an automatic system is required for MV source transfer.
For your peace of mind, RM6 gives automatic control and management of power sources in your Medium Voltage secondary distribution network with a short transfer time (less than 10 seconds), guaranteeing the hi-reliability of your installation. Automatic control is performed by Easergy T200 I. This T200 I device can also be used for remote control with a wide range of modems and protocols. By default, the T200 I is provided with the RS232 modem and the Modbus/IP protocol.

Other functions
ATS in ON/OFF mode The ATS system can be switched on or off from the local control panel (T200 I) or remotely (Scada system). When the ATS is OFF, the RM6 switches can be electrically actuated by local or remote control (operation in parallel mode is therefore possible). ATS in parallel mode upon Auto return Activating this option enables paralleling of the channels by the automatic transfer system, during the phase of automatic return to the priority channel. To be used when the ATS is in Auto mode. Application: synchronization of the voltages of the main power supply line and the backup line allows return to the main line without any interruption. Generator ON override command Activation of the ATS and transfer on Generator can be activated upon an order: remotely or through dedicated digital input. Applications: b Periodic maintenance tests of the ATS/Generator system b Switch on Generator when the Network is overloaded. During peak hours, and if network is overloaded, Utility can send a remote order that will activate Generator. Having this facility, it will allow a private customer to negotiate better tariff of electricity.

Selecting bushings and connectors

General
b The proles, contacts and dimensions of the RM6 connection interfaces are dened by the IEC 60137 standard. b 100% of the epoxy resin interfaces undergo dielectric testing at power frequency and partial discharge tests. b An insulated connector must used in order to guarantee the dielectric performance over time. Schneider Electric recommends using nkt connectors.
MT55039
type A
type B / C
Appropriateness for use

The bushings carry the electrical current from the outside to the inside of the enclosure, which is lled with SF6 gas, ensuring insulation between the live conductors and the frame. There are 3 types of bushing, which are dened by their short-time withstand current: b Type A: 200 A: 12.5 kA 1 s and 31.5 kA peak (plug-in) b Type B: 400 A: 16 kA 1 s and 40 kA peak (plug-in) b Type C: 630 A: 25 kA 1 s, 21 kA 3 s and 62.5 kA peak (disconnectable M16).
Types of connection interface
How to dene the connection interface

The connection interfaces depend on specic criteria, such as:
Installation
b Current rating of the connected equipment: 200, 400, 630 A b Short-time withstand current for 12.5 kA, 16 kA, 25 kA switch and circuit breaker functions b For the fuse-switch combination function, as the short-circuit current is limited by the fuse, the connection interface will be of type A (200 A) b Minimum phase expansion length b Connection type: v plug in: multicontact ring v disconnectable: bolted. b Output position: straight, elbow.
This information must be specied for better denition of the connection interfaces.
Cable
b v v b v v b b b v v b v v b b Specied voltage: of the cable of the network. Type of conductor: aluminium copper. Cross section in mm2 insulation diameter Cable composition: single-core 3-core. Insulation type: dry paper impregnated (non-draining type). Type of screen Armature.
