2. XIRIA SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
2.1 Xiria System description
The Xiria switchgear panels are available for applications
up to 24kV.
The system is fully metal enclosed and a highly compact
and safe unit is achieved using high-quality internal
insulation.
All live primary components of the unit and the main
components of the drive mechanisms are housed in a fully
sealed enclosure. This prevents any dust, moisture and
other environmental factors from affecting the proper
operation of the system.
The enclosure is also arc resistant and thus provides
conditions of optimum safety for the operator. The cable
compartments are available as an option in arc-proof
configuration.
Different panel versions are available, among others:
1. a vacuum load-break switch for ring
cable connections;
2. a vacuum circuit-breaker for the protection of mains
transformers and cable connections.
The versions can be supplied in any combination and
sequence.
The Xiria panels includes immediately visible position
indication using viewing windows (1) on the control panel,
see Figure 2-1.
The separation between cable and busbar system and the
position of the vacuum interrupter are directly visible
through the viewing windows. This also provides safe,
visible and integrated earthing in combination with the
short-circuit proof load-break switch or circuit-breaker.
Cables are connected with cable connection cones suitable
for use with plugs.
