ABB UniGear R switchboards are constructed by positioning single-phase air insulated cubicles side by side. Circuit breaker panels house withdrawable vacuum single-phase circuit breaker intended for railway power supply.
UniGear R switchgear panels comply with the standards and specifications for factory assembled, metal-clad and type tested high voltage switchgears to IEC publications 60298 and 60694.
Every cubicle is divided into various compartments both for power equipment (busbar, circuit breaker, cable compartment) and for auxiliaries (low voltage compartment, wiring ducts for interconnections), which are segregated by metal partitions. This design ensures personal and equipment safety in case of internal arc-fault.
