G&W SF6 vault style switches provide a load break connection point for individual tower locations. Fault protection for the transformers can be provided using vacuum interrupters. An integral ground position on the switch operator is available which facilitates easy grounding of the system by simply rotating the operating handle. Specific features include:
Ratings through 38kV, 630A load break, up to 25kA symmetric interrupting per ANSI 37.60.
Multi-way configurations permit loop through of the turbine towers eliminating the need for separate cable junction points between the tower and the collector system.
Dead-front, compact construction capable of fitting through a typical entrance opening of the turbine.
