2.3 VCE Detailed Description

The VCE comprises a tee-off vacuum circuit breaker contained within a common SF6
gas insulated chamber. The unit is suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications and
can be used either as a freestanding unit or for direct mounting to a transformer,
complying with EATS 35-1.

2.3.1 Unit configurations

The VCE is available with normal current ratings of either 250A or 630A. Both unit
types are available as extensible to either both sides, or to the left only.
Unit type designations are generated following the selection process below:

Vacuum Circuit breaker Extensible VCE

Normal Current Rating Select
250A 2
630A 6
Extensibility
Both sides -
Left Hand only L

i.e. VCE2L is a 250A unit extensible to the left only.

2.3.2 Gas Enclosure

The gas enclosure is manufactured from stainless steel and is fabricated utilising
automatic 'robot welding' techniques to produce consistent leak- free equipment.

 2.3.3 Housing
The housing of the VCE is fully treated, using zinc coated steel and electrostatically
applied oven cured paint, to resist weather and pollution attacks. All units are provided
with a hinged, weatherproof and lockable door. The external support legs can be
adapted for varying height requirements.

2.3.4 Tee-Off Circuit Breaker

The tee-off circuit breaker comprises three vacuum interrupters, which have a fault-
make, fault-break rating. Opening of the circuit breaker (tripping) can be achieved
manually by operation of the manual trip bar, via a protection circuit or by remote
tripping.

Earthing of the outgoing cable, from the tee-off circuit breaker, is achieved by the use
of the circuit breaker and in series with an off-load isolator/selector switch. This
ensures that the tee-off earthing facility has a full short circuit-making capability
comparable with the ring main unit on the VCE6 and transformer earthing levels for
VCE2 units.

2.3.5 Operation
All operating positions and instructions are indicated on the main panel at the front of
the unit. Operation is by means of manually independent spring assisted mechanisms,
which are mounted externally to the gas enclosure.

The tee-off vacuum circuit breaker has two operating positions, 'ON', 'OFF', with an
off-load, interlocked selector allowing earthing of the tee-off circuit.

A single, bar type operating handle is stored at the front of the unit, inside the door.

2.3.6 Test Facilities

If cable test facilities are required on the T-off, an alternative interlocked system, using
plug-in connectors, is available.

2.3.7 Interlocks
Positive safety interlocks are incorporated on all switch positions to prevent mal-
operation.

2.3.8 Padlocks
All switch and selector positions can be padlocked.

 2.3.9 Transformer Protection
The vacuum circuit breaker enables the VCE to protect transformers with ratings well
in excess of those with a comparable fused unit. Protection is achieved by the use of
ring core current transformers and Time Limit Fuse or a protection relay. The ring core
current transformers are mounted around the rear tee-off bushings, external to the SF6
chamber. The time-fuse links, or the protection relay, are mounted behind a cover at
the front of the unit.

2.3.9.1 Time Limit Fuse Protection

CT's are provided in accordance with the specific requirements of
individual orders and would, typically, be dual ratio to provide
adequate protection for the desired range of transformer rating.

Access for CT ratio change is provided by means of an external cover

plate, which is on the side of the unit.

2.3.9.4 Relay Protection

A wide selection of relays are available, offering overcurrent and earth
fault tripping, fault trip indication and fault type indication through
operator interface.
Relays can be self or auxiliary powered.
Communication protocols can include MODBUS & IEC60870-5-103
via either RS485 & RS232 ports.
Full details of relay functionality are available upon request.
