Outdoor Porcelain Clad VCB (PCVCB)
Introduction
PENTAGON SWITCHGEAR PRIVATE LIMITED manufactures outdoor type Porcelain Clad Vacuum Circuit Breakers (PSGPC-36), which are structure mounted, easy to install for use in 36KV systems. These breakers are of open terminal type with reliable and well proven vacuum interrupters in weather proof porcelain housing. Adequate phase clearances and heights have been provided to meet standard safety requirements. The three poles are mechanically ganged to a common operating mechanism. It is suitable for direct connection to overhead supply lines. The operating mechanism is housed in a separate cubicle with manual/motorized spring charged mechanism. The design of this PCVCB incorporates a minimum number of moving parts and a simple assembly which ensures a long electrical and mechanical service life. This breaker is designed to handle all the switching including rapid auto - reclosing. More over quite and low vibration operation and high temperature sustainability enable the breaker to be used in hazardous conditions. Against customers requirement the breaker can be supplied with extended structure for mounting Current Transformers & Potential Transformers, Terminal connectors & Castle key interlock. We can also offer a separate control & Relay Panel as per customers requirement which can be installed either Indoor or Outdoor.
