Gas-insulated switchgear

Claim 2

A gas-insulated switch-gear comprising: a circuit breaker mounted parallel with respect to a horizontal ground plane and defining an axial line and having two ends; a first line disconnecting switch mounted vertically with respect to said ground plane and having upper and lower terminal sections in which the upper terminal section thereof is connected to one end of said circuit breaker; a line link bus defining an axial line and coupled to the lower terminal section of said first disconnecting switch; a second vertical type line disconnecting switch having upper and lower terminal sections; a bus link bus coupling said second disconnecting switch to the other terminal of said circuit breaker, said bus link having a horizontal portion defining an axial line and connected to the upper terminal section of said second disconnecting switch and a vertical portion connected to the other terminal section of said circuit breaker; a horizontally disposed main bus located above said circuit breaker and defining a respective axial line, said main bus connected to the lower terminal section of said second disconnecting switch; and the axial lines of said circuit breaker and said line linked bus defining a difference in height and the axial lines of said bus link bus and said main bus defining a difference in height which is equal to the difference in height between the axial lines of said circuit breaker and said line link bus.

Claim 3

A gas-insulated switch-gear according to claim 1 wherein said circuit breaker comprises: a tank having opposed ends at which are provided respective breaker sections making connection to respective outlet sections of said disconnecting switches, each breaker section comprising a fixed contact section and a moving contact section insulated and supported at a respective end of said tank.

Claim 4

A gas-insulated switch-gear comprising: a circuit breaker mounted parallel with respect to a horizontal ground plane and defining an axial line and having two ends; a first line disconnecting switch mounted vertically with respect to said ground plane and having upper and lower terminal sections separated by a vertical distance in which the upper terminal section thereof is connected to one end of said circuit breaker; a line link bus defining an axial line and coupled to the lower terminal section of said first disconnecting switch; a second vertical type line disconnecting switch having upper and lower terminal sections separated by the same vertical distance as in said first switch; a horizontally disposed main bus located over said circuit breaker and perpendicular thereto and defining a respective axial line, said main bus connected to the lower terminal section of said second disconnecting switch; a bus link bus extending vertically from one end of said breaker and then extending horizontally and parallel to and over said breaker and also over said main buses, coupling said second disconnecting switch to the other terminal of said second breaker, said bus link bus connected to the upper terminal section of said second disconnecting switch in the other terminal section of said circuit breaker; and the axial lines of said circuit breaker and said line link bus defining a difference in height and the axial lines of said bus link bus and said main bus defining a difference in height which is equal to the difference in height between the axial lines of said circuit breaker and said line link bus; whereby said first switch and said second switch are made with similar dimensions so that interchangeable parts may be used.

Claim 5

A gas-insulated switch-gear comprising: a circuit breaker mounted parallel with respect to a horizontal ground plane and defining an axial line and having two ends; a first line disconnecting switch mounted vertically with respect to said ground plane and having upper and lower terminal sections separated by a vertical distance in which the upper terminal section thereof is connected to one end of said circuit breaker; a line link bus defining an axial line and coupled to the lower terminal section of said first disconnecting switch; a second vertical type line disconnecting switch having upper and lower terminal sections separated by the same vertical distance as in said first switch; a horizontally disposed main bus located over said circuit breaker and perpendicular thereto and defining a respective axial line, said main bus connected to the lower terminal section of said second disconnecting switch; a bus link bus extending vertically from one end of said breaker and then extending horizontally and parallel to and over said breaker and also over said main buses, coupling said second disconnecting switch to the other terminal of said second breaker, said bus link bus connected to the upper terminal section of said second disconnecting switch in the other terminal section of said circuit breaker; and the axial lines of said circuit breaker and said line link bus defining a difference in height and the axial lines of said bus link bus and said main bus defining a difference in height which is equal to the difference in height between the axial lines of said circuit breaker and said line link bus; whereby said first switch and said second switch are made with similar dimensions so that interchangeable parts may be used.
