GW5 Isolation Switch 40.5 kV Isolation Switch (also known as Disconnector)
Double-column horizontal rotating, consists of insulated racks, conductive knives, base and control mechanism. The blades move horizontally at a constant speed when opening and closing, with strong ice breaking ability. The insulation support is a rod structure that prevents contamination.
GW5 Isolation Switch 40.5 kV Isolation Switch (also known as Disconnector)
Double-column horizontal rotating, consists of insulated racks, conductive knives, base and control mechanism. The blades move horizontally at a constant speed when opening and closing, with strong ice breaking ability. The insulation support is a rod structure that prevents contamination.
Used to electrically isolate high voltage lines under no-load conditions, providing visible break points to ensure service safety, and cannot disconnect loads or short circuit currents.
Supports single-sided or double-sided grounding blade switch configuration to achieve communication between the main circuit and the grounding circuit
Typical Application Scenarios
- Substation maintenance: insulation of 35 kV busbars, transformer neutral point, as well as incoming and outgoing line circuits.
- New energy plants: segmentation of wind/photovoltaic booster plant lines and isolation of maintenance equipment.
- Industrial power distribution: switching and power protection for high power consumption scenarios such as metallurgy and chemical industries.
The 40.5 kV GW5 isolation switch, with its modular design, high mechanical life (≥ 2000 cycles) and wide environmental adaptability, has become the equipment of choice for safe isolation in medium and high voltage networks, especially suitable for new energy and industrial power distribution scenarios.
