No claims can be asserted from the statements, figures, or descriptions in this manual. 1.3.1 Pole Unit Each pole unit consists of a cylindrical aluminum tank containing the built-in, electrically insulated interrupter unit and two porcelain or composite bushings for insulating line voltage from ground. Bushing type current transformers are housed in pockets on the top of both ends of the tank. The pole units and the SF. gas piping form a common gas compartment. The movable contacts of the interrupter unit are connected to the operating mechanism by insulating rods, shafts and levers internal to each pole column, and extemally via a common mechanical linkage system. The rated SF. gas pressure is 66.7 psig (4.6 bar) at 68°F (20°C). 1.3.2. Interrupters The DT1-72.5 circuit breaker design incorporates third-generation SF, puffer interrupter technology. When the current is interrupted, a transition from the conductive to the insulating state occurs within a few milliseconds. During the opening operation, an are forms across the arcing contacts of the interrupter. The arcing contacts are encapsulated by insulating nozzles, which direct gas flow across the arc. The arc is then quenched by this gas flow developed within the interrupter unit, In third-generation SF interrupters, the required quenching pressure is generated in a "sell-blast’ chamber by the energy of the arc itself, as a function of current. The operating mechanism supplies only the energy for contact movement and an auxiliary puffer piston. Breaker interrupters are factory assembled and can be replaced as complete assemblies, or the interrupter inserts, consisting of the mobile contact assemblies and stationary arcing contacts, may be replaced individually.

Stationary Arcing Contact 1.3.3. Bushing There are two gas-filled bushings on each pole unit. SF gas is common to the bushings and associated tank without any intemal barriers. The bushing material is either, porcelain or composite material. Both types of bushings are supplied with top and bottom flanges for bolting to the terminal plate and bushing pocket, respectively. The hollow bushing center conductor is attached to the bottom side of the top terminal plate, passes downward through a throat shield (used to grade the dielectric field), and ‘connects to a compression contact on the top of the interrupter assembly. 1.3.4 Bushing Type Current Transformers (BCT) Current transformers are manufactured according to ANSI C57.13, BS3938, and IEC185. Current transformers can be located on each side of the breaker interrupters. Multi-ratio relaying and metering CTs (the actual types are dependent on purchaser requirements) are located under spun aluminum covers, 1.3.5 SFe Gas Monitoring System This paragraph describes the standard SF gas monitoring system, incorporating a WIKA density monitor. Other options are available. Consult the drawings for your breaker to identify your particular system and any optional equipment. (See Chapter 7) + The standard AREVA circuit breaker uses a temperature compensated gas density monitor, which will provide an alarm when the density in the pole units falls below 29.2 gil (52.2 psig or 3.6 bar at 20°C) and operational lock-out at 27.2 gil (47.9 psig or 3.3 bar at 20°C), + After examining your SFe gas monitoring system, refer to the appropriate paragraphs in the following pages. + The WIKA temperature-compensated density gauge is factory adjusted and cannct be adjusted in the field. ‘+ No maintenance is required on a WIKA density monitor. No replacement parts are listed except the complete SF temperature compensated gas monitor. ‘+ The opening and closing points of the pressure switches must be in accordance with the requirements for each switch application, DTOSFKIM AREVAT & D Inc.

The monitor will only respond to changes in density of the SF, gas, for example, due to a leak in the system or during filling of the gas system The temperature-compensated gas monitoring system is furnished with internal electrical contacts to provide an alarm when the SFs gas density in the pole units falls below 29.2 g/l (52.2 psig or 3.6 bar at 20°C), and to lockout the breaker at 27.2 gil (47.9 psig or 3.3 bar at 20°C). If leaks are suspected, the breaker should be isolated from the system and inspected for leaks. If leaks are detected, the leaks must be repaired and the cas brought up to normal operating pressure before the breaker is retumed to ser ‘DTOSFKIM AREVATE D Inc. ‘Chapter 1, Page 10, Instruction Manual - Type DT4-72.5 F1 Rev 7 11/14/2008 fa customer requested non-temperature compensated pressure gauge is provided with the SF gas monitoring system, the chart shown in Figure 5 must be used to determine the proper SFe gas pressure at a given temperature.

SFs Gas Policy SF, has been identified by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change as a "greenhouse gas" with the potential to contribute to global warming SF gas should not be deliberately released to the atmosphere Gas handling procedures described in the instruction manual should be carefully followed to limit the release of SFs gas over the life of the circuit breaker. Gas handling and reclaiming equipment should be utilized, AREVA circuit breakers, circuit switchers, and gas insulated switchgear are designed, manufactured and factory tested to be free of leaks. AREVA warrants a gas leakage rata of less than 1% per year on all SF, equipment. If leaks develop in service, take appropriate action to locate and eliminate SF, gas leaks.

Instructions and advisories should be studied thoroughly before any installation, operation, or maintenance has begun. ns ~ General All personnel associated with installation, operation and maintenance of power circuit breakers should be thoroughly instructed regarding power equipment in general and on the particular model of breaker which they are working with. Instruction books and service advisories should be closely studied and followed. Maintenance programs must be well planned and carried out consistent with both customer experience and manufacturer's recommendations including service advisories and instruction books. Good maintenance is essential to breaker reliability and safety. Following are recommendations to be considered in a user's safety program. These recommendations are not intended to replace the user's responsibility for devising a complete safety program and should not be considered as such. They are suggestions DTOSFKIM AREVATED ine Chapter 2, Page 6 Instruction Manual - Type DT1-72.6 Rev 1 (10/08) to cover the more important aspects of personnel safety related to circuit breakers. AREVA neither condones nor assumes any responsibility for user practices, which deviate from these recommendations. The user’s company safety regulations should always take precedence. 2.2 Safety Precautions ~ Specific anger a) Do Not work on an energized breaker! If work has to be performed on the breaker, take it out of service, open the breaker, open the disconnect switches at each side of the breaker, then discharge the springs and ground each phase. ‘When dealing with circuit breakers, itis critical to remember that you are deaiing with high voltages, high gas pressures, toxic by-products, and moving machine parts. Do not take short cuts or ignore safety warnings and practices! ») Do Not work on any part of the de-energized breaker until all control and heater power has been disconnected. ©) Do Not disassemble any portion of the gas system of the de-energized breaker until that portion of the system has had the pressure reduced to ambient pressure by utilizing proper gas handling equipment. Only after gas pressure has been raduced to zero, cautiously remove covers, tubes, fitings, etc. d) Always use an SF. regulator when filling or adding SF; to the breaker, to prevent ‘over pressurizing the breaker. Measures should be taken to protect personnel against sudden gas release from accidental breakage of adjacent parts. ) Never invert the gas bottle: this will release liquid SF into the breaker, will over pressurize the breaker, and may cause the pressure relief device to release, Tequiring service and replacement of parts. f) Only skilled and knowledgeable personnel should service the operating mechanisms. Particular care must be taken to keep personnel clear of mechanisms which are to be operated or discharged. Information on mechanism operations is provided in this instruction manual. The circuit breaker is equipped with a stored energy Caution | | mechanism for opening and closing operations. In the closed state, the mechanism stores enough energy for an O-C-O | operating sequence. To remove stored energy from the mechanism, remove all control voltage from the motor and ‘open and close the breaker until all stored energy is, released. 9) IF there is any evidence of deterioration of breaker dielectric capability, the breaker should be de-energized by remote switching of back-up circult breakers and isolated by disconnect switches. h) Operational tests and checks must be made after breaker maintenance to ensure that the breaker is capable of operating properly. The extent of such tests and checks should be consistent with the level of maintenance performed. DTOaFKAM ‘AREVAT&D inc. Chapter 2, Page 7 instruction Manual - Type DT1-72.5 Rev 4 (10/06) 2.3 Handling SF, Gas SF should never intentionally be released into the A Caution | | atmosphere. I (Refer to Addendum A for detailed information about SF.) When opening an SF¢ filled pole, consider the following while handling SF gas: 1. Sulfur Hexafluoride (SF) is a colorless and odorless gas. Pure SF is non- Poisonous; therefore no risk classification needs to be followed, Refer to the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) in Addendum B for complete details, 2. The maximum allowable concentration at a place of work, assuming that a person ‘spends 8 hours per day there, is 1000 PPM (or 0.1%) by volume. This low value is the standard adopted for all gases considered harmless, but not normally present in the atmosphere. 3. Under the influence of an are, SF, decomposes into products which have var toxicities. They may irritate mucous membranes, respiratory tracts, or other unprotected skin. Even the smallest amounts of gaseous decomposition products can be recognized, almost immediately, by their strongly pungent, sulfurous odor, generally before the danger of contamination arises. 4. Itis necessary for maintenance personnel to follow these safety precautions in addition to all safety regulations prescribed by their employer. 9 5. Do not agitate SF¢ decomposition by-products unnecessarily. Remove SF¢ decomposition by-products immediately after opening the breaker (pole) to prevent moisture combining with the by-products. 7. Use a suitable vacuum cleaner with dust filter, and wipe off the remaining decomposition by-products with a piece of lint free cloth, 8. To neutralize SF by-products on desiccant and used cleaning cloths, neutralize them by soaking in a 3% soda solution for 24 hours, or dispose of them as hazardous materials.

This especially applies during maintenance work, when the interrupter enclosures are opened. 2 Only maintenance personnel who are necessary to carry out the work should be in the work area Sulfur hexafluoride (SF6) is potentially dangerous because of the toxicity of the gas by-products and because of possible suffocation in low lying places in enclosed areas. Avoid direct contact with parts that were in contact with the insulating gas. Do not allow the powdery decomposition products to touch exposed skin, Ensure more than “sufficient room ventilation, one Maintenance personnel handling used SFs gas, should be equipped with the following personal safety gear: ‘+ Appropriate gas mask or breathing equipment. The best choices are a full gas mask or a gas mask, breathing equipment, and gas-tight safety glasses. + Dust tight acid resistant protective overalls (disposable), ‘+ Rubber gloves or disposable gloves. ‘+ Rubber boots or disposable boots. 7 Aiter completing the gas handling procedure, thoroughly wash the gas mask and breathing equipment, safety glasses, rubber boots and rubber gloves with water.

The quality of SFs gas conforms to the recommendations of IEC 376 or ANSIASTM 02472-71 (1980) ‘SF is approximately five times heavier than air (one of the heaviest known gases) and tends to accumulate in low areas. Although pure SF is nontoxic, it can displace oxygen ‘and cause asphyxiation. Therefore, itis necessary to exercise caution when working in circuit breaker tanks or other enclosed areas where SF; may accumulate. Gas handling procedures described in the instruction book should be carefully followed to limit the release of SFs gas over the life of the circuit breaker. Gas handling and reclaiming equipment should be utilized. Used SF, must either be recycled or destroyed. AREVA circuit breakers, circuit switchers and GIS are designed, manufactured and factory tested to be free of leaks. AREVA warrants a gas leakage rate of less than 1% per year on all SF, equipment. If leaks develop in service, appropriate action to locate and eliminate SF gas leaks must be taken. A Ww: Outdoor use of pure SF is safe. However, SF. arning decomposition products require special protective measures. The maximum permissible moisture content in SF, gas must A Caution | | not exceed 125ppm, upon filing, Moisture can react with SF¢ under the influence of electrical discharges to form toxic and corrosive compounds through hydrolysis. A.2 Properties of SF, Gas Sulfur hexafluoride (SFe) is an extremely stable gas that is chemically inert under normal conditions. The strong electron affinity of the SFs molecule, along with it's relatively large physical size and mass (molecular weight of SF< = 146 g/mol), gives the gas excellent insulating properties, making it particularly suitable as a dielectric for high and medium voltage applications. The breakdown voltage of SF¢ at 1 bar (14.5 psig) is 250-300% higher than air or nitrogen, while arc-quenching times are 100 times faster than air. Furthermore, SFe regenerates itself spontaneously following disassociation and. ionization due to an electric arc produces less pressure increases than other gases and has excellent heat transfer characteristics. These properties make SFe the ideal insulating medium for today's high capacity switches and circuit breakers, as well as for transformer and transmission line applications, Although SF. is an ideal insulating medium, it possesses one disadvantage; it has a relatively high liquefaction point. Liquefaction of SF, occurs between -10°F and -30°F, depending on the density of the gas (refer to Figure 1). This tends to lead to conflicting requirements of SF. Higher pressures and densities increase its dielectric strength and ‘DTOSFKAM AREVAT & D Inc Addendum A, Page 6 Instruction Manual - Type DT1-72.5 Rev 0 (08/05) 's arc-quenching properties, but also increase the liquefaction temperature. In regions where the ambient temperature falls below -10°F, even for short durations, supplemental. means of maintaining SF, temperatures above -10°F must be provided. ‘SF. has been identified by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change as a “greenhouse gas" with the potential to contribute to global warming, Therefore, SFs gas should never be deliberately released into the atmosphere. Current international standards require that leakage losses from SF, equipment must not exceed 1% per year. SF¢ installations can meet this requirement, and any more stringent standards which may be propagated in the future, through the use of appropriate handling procedures and on-site monitoring, reclamation and incineration equipment now available.

Addendum A, Page 7 Instruction Manual - Type D11-72.5 Rev 0 (06/05) A.3 Health Risks for Pure SF, There is danger of suffocation due to lack of oxygen if the Warning | | SFs concentration exceeds 35 percent by volume in ar. Such concentrations can occur in non-ventilated open SF¢ installations, and at ground level of narrow compact rooms, as well as in spaces below ground level (e.g. basements, cable ducts). If SFe gas escapes without being able to mix turbulently with ambient air, it may, because of its high density, accumulate at floor level and enter lower located rooms, Once SF¢ gas has mingled with air it will not collect in low areas. I Eee eee eee Pure sulfur hexafluoride (SF) gas is chemically very stable, inert, almost water insoluble, non-flammable, non-poisonous, odorless, colorless and heavier than air (approximately 5X by weight). SFs is an insulating and cooling gas of high thermal stability and dielectric strength ‘SF. is nontoxic; therefore no risk classification needs to be specified. Refer to Addendum B Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) for complete details. The maximum allowable SF concentration at @ place of work, assuming that a person spends 8 hours per day there, is 1000 ppm (or 0.1 %) by volume, This very low value is the standard value adopted for all gases considered harmless, but not normally present in the atmosphere. in the case of SFs, it is more than two orders of magnitude lower than the danger level Clean, pure SF gas contains no contaminants, which are detrimental to health; however, there exists a risk of asphyxiation as discussed above. A4 Decomposition Products of SF. ‘SFs decomposition products are toxic in various ways, They Warning | | °2" ‘esuttin skin, eye and mucous membrane initations, and, when handied in iarge amounts, will lead to laryngeal and lung failure, heart and circulatory collapse, as well as blackouts. Gaseous decomposition products, even in small amounts, provide certain warning symptoms within seconds (for example, unpleasant, piercing odors, and nasal, mouth, and eye irritations), before any actual poisoning takes piace, which enables personnel to withdraw to safety in time Under the influence of an arc, decomposition products are created which are partly toxic. The amounts of decomposition products formed are proportional to the magnitude and duration of the arc, the degree of the temperature increase, the design materials of the equipment and contaminants present such as air and moisture. Due to the resilient properties of SFe, a large part of the decomposed gas recombines, upon cooling. Reactions may occur, however, with other materials present in the equipment (e.g, with vaporizing arcing contact material). This results in the formation of gaseous sulfur fluoride and solid metallic fluoride powder. In the presence of oxygen or ‘DTOSFKAM ‘AREVAT &D Ine. ‘Addendum A, Page 8 Instruction Manual - Type DT1-72.5 Rev 0 (06/05) moisture, the development of hydrogen-fluoride and sulfur dioxide may occur. Solid byproducts, when present, can be observed in the form of white, grey, or tan powders, and are irritating to exposed skin, If moisture is present, corrosive electrolytes may form from the primary and secondary decomposition products of SFs. These electrolytes may cause damage and operational failure in electrical equipment, particularly to insulating surfaces such as glass and porcelain, Therefore, it is recommended to perform circuit breaker maintenance on rain free days and days with low ambient humidity Moisture and SF, decomposition products inside equipment can be reduced to acceptable levels through adsorption. Materials such as alumina, lime, molecular sieves or combinations thereof are suitable for this purpose. They adsorb the gaseous acid products effectively and practically irreversibly, and at the same time ensure that the gas maintains a low dew point temperature. A5 Safety Precautions — Ventilation With an SF concentration exceeding 35 percent by volume in air, there is danger of suffocation due to lack of oxygen. ‘Such concentrations can occur in unventilated open SF5 installations, and at ground level of narrow compact rooms. as well as in spaces below ground level (for example, basements or cabie ducts). If SFy gas escapes without being able to mix turbulently with ambient air, it may, because of its high density, accumulate at floor level and enter lower located rooms, Once SF¢ gas has mingled with air it will not collect in low areas. In installations located at ground level, intermingling of SF and air produced by natural circulation is adequate. About 50% of the ventilating air flow cross-section should be located as close as possible to ground level. In the case of breakdowns, forced ventilation should be provided. In installations located below ground level, mechanical ventilation (forced ventilation) is required. The volume of gas, the gas losses, and the size of the room could result in SFs collecting in sufficient quantities to cause asphyxiation. In the case of forced ventilation, ‘SF. contaminated air must be collected as close to ground level as possible. ‘Spaces lying below SF. switchgear installations (for example. shafts, cable ducts, sumps, and pits) which are connected to rooms of the installation must be adequately ventilated or sealed-off in such a manner that SFe cannot collect in dangerous amounts. DTOOFKIM AREVATD Ine, Addendum A, Page 9 Instruction Manual - Type DT1-72.5_ Rev 0 (06/05) A.6 Recommended Equipment for SF, Handling The following equipment is recommended as protective gear for persons working in circuit breaker tanks or other restrictive areas where SFs may accumulate, and where decomposition byproducts may be present: * Forced air type respirator with a minimum of 50 feet of supply hose. * Filtered air supply capable of supplying sufficient ventilation. + Full-face respirator with fier cartridges for organic vapors and acidic gases. * Portable compressed air supply. ‘+ Chemical resistant type industrial goggtes. + Disposable hooded coveralls, non-permeable acid resistant paper type with nylon reinforcement material. Preferably industrial grade with elastic ankle and wrist grips that overlap boots and gioves. + Gloves: rubber / neoprene, non-disposable type that cover to the elbow. + Boots: rubber, non-disposable, over the shoe type that extends to the knee. * Wet / dry type vacuum cleaner with non-metallic attachments and a filter capable of filtering particles to at least 1m in size. * _ Lint-free cloth and cleaning solvent such as denatured ethyl alcohol. * Neutralizing agent such as sodium carbonate or lime (calcium hydroxide). A.7 Occupying and Entering Rooms with SF; Switchgear Installed If there is an unpleasant, piercing odor from SF Caution | | ¢composition products in a room with SF; switchgear installed, the room must be vacated immediately and must not be entered except by a team wearing suitable oxygen masks or after the room has been thoroughly ventilated {there is a disturbance in the installation and you encounter concentrations of SFs gas in hazardous amounts (risk of suffocation) due to the gas volume and size of the room, the room may only be entered after being thoroughly aired. Entrance is only permitted to persons wearing oxygen masks operating independent of the ambient air, or alternatively, after establishing that the ambient air contains at least 17% oxygen. Rooms located below the switchgear installation and associated with the plant may only be entered by a team wearing suitable oxygen masks or after the room has been thoroughly ventilated. A8 Working on SF, Switchgear A8.1 Fundamental rules Instructions for performing work on SFs switchgear are given in the appropriate sections of the Instruction Manual. ‘Switchgear may only be opened after scavenging operations have been completed to remove the SF, gas. Maintenance personnel must follow these safety precautions in addition to all safety precautions established by their employer. DTOSFKAM AREVAT &D Inc, Addendum A, Page 10 Instruction Manual ~ Type DT1-72.5 Rey 0 (06/05) ‘+ Ensure that there is adequate ventilation (natural or mechanical). ‘+ Do not agitate SFs decomposition by-products unnecessarily. + Remove SFe decomposition by-products immediately after opening the breaker- pole to prevent moisture combination with by-products. Use a suitable vacuum cleaner with dust filter and wipe off remaining decomposition by-products with a piece of lint free cloth. + To neutralize SF. by-products (arc products), on the desiccant and used cloths, ‘soak them in a 3 percent soda solution for 24 hours. To verify the degree of neutralization after 24 hours, add additional soda to the solution.

A.8.2 Removal of SF6 Gas from Equipment Itis recommended that you temporarily store and reuse SF gas during service and maintenance as an environmental protection measure as well as being economical. The type of equipment used for SF gas storage consists of a compressor, vacuum pump, storage tank, evaporator and a filter unit piped together with fitings and valves. + De-energize apparatus, switch-off where applicable and ground to earth ‘+ Connect the service unit to the gas filling nipple by means of a fill hose. Employ the use of an in-line adsorbent fiter to remove any decomposition by-products or contaminants such as oxygen or moisture. ‘+ Refill the circuit breaker tank, if possible, with nitrogen or dry compressed air to the rated pressure (flush) and subsequently discharge the gas outdoors through an adsorbent filter. DTGOFK-IM ‘AREVATED Inc. Addendum A, Page 11 Instruction Manual ~ Type DT4-72.5 Rev 0 (06/05) | A8.3 SF6 and the Environment SF is critical to the reliable distribution of electricity, therefore itis essential for users to recognize the importance of responsible use and careful management. SFs possesses powerful greenhouse gas characteristics. It posses a global warming potential of approximately 24,000 times that of carbon dioxide over a 100-year time horizon, with an atmospheric residency of more than 3,000 years. Although SF. has these attributes, substantial evidence exists, which indicates that SF» has a negligible impact on the global environment. Because SF, is manufactured rather than naturally occurring and because of its long lifetime, precautions should be taken to minimize the quantity of SF¢ that is released into the atmosphere. A.8.4 Opening the Apparatus Before opening the apparatus, use an HF monitor to sample the breaker gas to detect possible toxins. ‘+ Open the SFé switchgear only after the gas has been evacuated and the pressure inside the apparatus has been reduced to atmospheric pressure. ‘+ Either place the ventilation system in operation or ensure that fresh air circulates in some other manner (for example, natural turbulence) when switchgear containing decomposition products is opened. + Wear suitable fresh air breathing apparatus if there is even the slightest possibilty that personnel working on the equipment could be put in danger ‘through inhalation of hazardous amounts of gas or vapor from powdery decomposition products. (For example, wide-range masks, type 72 (RIVA) with filter B2P2 from AGA Company or equivalent from "Draeger”). Monitor the levels of the oxygen content to avoid the danger of asphyxiation}! ‘+ Wear hooded, disposable, non-permeable, acid resistant coveralls, made of paper with @ nylon type reinforcement material, when working on open SF switchgear that contains powdery decomposition products. After completing work remove coveralls and dispose of as prescribed. ‘+ Avoid stirring-up dust and powder from SF, switchgear. Difficult-to-remove dust can be removed with cry non-fibrous rags. A vacuum cleaner should be used to remove loose dust. The vacuum cleaner filter should be able to retain particles of at least 1pm in size. ‘+ Items (such as rags, vacuum cleaner and filter, disposable coveralls, gloves, etc.) which come in contact with the decomposition products must be collected and neutralized so that the dust cannot be transferred, before disposing of these items. Or they may be disposed of as hazardous materials. (Note: California requires special permits to treat hazardous waste.) + Under all circumstances ensure that the decomposition products do not come in contact with skin, eyes, clothes, or that they are not swallowed or inhaled. Pay special attention to personal hygiene, clothes and work bench. Dust or powder that comes in contact with skin must be washed away with plenty of clean water. Itis advisable to wash face, neck, arms, and hands with soap and plenty of clean water before work breaks and after stopping work. ‘+ Avoid eating, drinking, smoking, or storing foods in rooms or outdoors near to ‘opened SF¢ switchgear, which may contain arc-decomposed powder.

Addendum A, Page 12 Instruction Manual - Type DT1-72.5, Rev 0 (06/05) AQ Summary of Important Safety Instructions Although pure, non-contaminated SF; gas is non-poisonous, Caution | | electrical discharges and faut-switching arcs wil give rise to different grades of toxic decomposition products. In small amounts gaseous decomposition products — within seconds and before any poisonous effects can take place ~ produce waming symptoms, such as an unpleasant piercing odor or nasal, mouth and eye irritations, which enabie working personnel to withdraw to safety. Solid decomposition products (powdery residues from switching) can cause skin ittitations. SF; is about five times heavier than air, and in the absence of turbulence, results in the gas collecting just above ground level. it may cause suffocation through oxygen deprivation when working indoors or in areas where the gas can accumulate. Therefore, the following instructions must be observed while performing maintenance work or inspection in SFs substations and on SF. switchgear: As soon as an unpleasant, piercing odor from decomposition products becomes perceptible, leave the substation room without delay. Enter the room only after thorough ventilation or when wearing suitable oxygen breathing masks (with filtering or forced air devices), After disturbances, enter the substation room only after having thoroughly ventilated the room, or when wearing oxygen breathing masks that operate independent of ambient air. Or, alternatively, after verifying by measurement that the ambient air contains at least 17% oxygen by volume, especially if one has to reckon with the concentration of SF¢ in hazardous amounts. + Enter rooms located below, and connected with the substation-rooms after thorough ventilation only, or when wearing oxygen breathing masks which operate independent of the ambient air, or alternatively, after having verified by measurement that the ambient air contains at least 17% oxygen by volume. Ensure that the room ventilation operates satisfactorily while maintenance work is being performed on SF switchgear (discharging and filling of gas, opening and cleaning of equipment). Before entering SF switchgear enclosures which contain powder deposits wear dust-proof (non-permeable) protective coveralls and suitable oxygen breathing masks (operating independent of ambient air or, after having verification from measurement that there is adequate oxygen, masks containing a filter device) as well as protective spectacles. ‘When working on opened SF. switchgear, protect skin against contact with decomposition residue and avoid swallowing or inhaling gas. Ensure body, ciothing, and workbench cleanliness. Wear disposable work-coveralls, and after completing work, discard appropriately. ‘Wash skin, which comes in contact with powder deposits, with plenty of water. Before work-breaks and after work wash face, neck, arms and hands thoroughly with soap and plenty of water. Do not stir up powder deposits resulting from arc switching. Remove sticky powder with dry rags. Use suitable vacuum cleaner with paper-filter to remove loose powder. Handle the powder such that the deposits do not spread. Before discarding used items and filter-bags, neutralize the contaminated items.

Bushing and Center Conductor ‘There are two gas-filled bushings on each pole unit, SF gas is common to the bushings and associated tank without any internal barriers. The bushing material is either, porcelain or composite material. Both types of bushings are supplied with top and bottom flanges for bolting to the terminal plate and bushing pocket, respectively. The hollow bushing center conductor is attached to the bottom side of the top terminal plate, passes downward through a throat shield (used to grade the dielectric field), and connects to a compression contact on the top of the interrupter assembly. 3.1.2. Bushing Current Transformers Current transformers are toroid-wound transformers located on each side of the interrupter under aluminum covers at the base of each bushing which monitor the primary current (the current through the center conductors). These current transformers can be used for relaying or metering and are manufactured and tested to the applicable standards as specified by the customer. 3.1.3 Pole Unit Each pole unit consists of a cylindrical aluminum tank containing the built-in, electrically insulated interrupter unit and two porcelain or composite bushings for insulating line voltage from ground. Bushing type current transformers are housed in pockets on the top of both ends of the tank. The pole units and the SFs gas piping form a common gas compartment. The movable contacts of the interrupter unit are connected to the operating mechanism by insulating rods, shafts and levers internal to each pole column, and externally via a common mechanical linkage system. The rated SFe gas pressure is 66.7 psig (4.6 bar) at 68°F (20°C). 3.1.4 Operating Mechanism The circuit breaker interrupters are actuated via linkage and lever arms by a stored energy operating mechanism. in the event of a power disruption to the circuit breaker controls, the operating mechanism stores enough energy to perform an Open-Close- Open operating sequence. If maintenance or service is to be performed on the circuit breaker, always remove power from the control circuits and manually discharge the mechanism until all stored energy is removed. ‘DTCOFK-IM ‘AREVAT &D Inc Chapter 3, Page 6 Instruction Manual — Type DT1-72.5 Rev 4 12102108 Figure 1 General Circuit Breaker Outline 1.

If the circuit breaker pressure drops, the breaker should be isolated from the system and inspected for leaks. If leaks are detected, the leaks must be repaired and the gas brought up to normal operating pressure at 20°C before the breaker is returned to service. See the breaker nameplate for fil pressure. SF¢ in the gaseous state will show a change in pressure as its temperature is changed. This is represented by the curve in Chapter 1, Figure 5. 3.2.3 SFs Gas Policy Refer to Chapter 2 for comprehensive safety information on Caution | | handing SF. ‘SF has been identifed by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change as a “greenhouse gas" with the potential to contribute to global warming. SF5 gas should never be deliberately released to the atmosphere. Gas handling procedures described in this instruction book should be carefully followed to limit the release of SFs gas over the life of the circuit breaker. Gas handiing and reclaiming equipment should be used. AREVA circuit breakers are designed, manufactured, and factory tested to be free of leaks. AREVA warrants a gas leakage rate of less than 1% per year on SF, insulated equipment. If leaks develop in service, appropriate action must be taken to locate and eliminate SFe gas leaks. 3.3. Electrical Operation 3.3.4 Closing Operation ‘When the breaker is to be closed, @ signal is passed to the closing portion of the control circuit. Assuming gas pressure is sufficient to prevent blocking, the breaker is in the open position, and the closing spring is charged, the normal sequence of events is as follows: When a separate low pressure lock-out relay is used for Trip #1 and Trip #2, both trip circuits must be enabled in order to jickup both lock-out relays for a closing operation (applies to normally energized relays only). + The closing coil is energized. ‘+ The anti-pumping relay is energized. After a delay on pickup of 1/2 cycle, it will isolate the close coil from the power source to prevent pumping. DTOOFK-IM ‘AREVAT &D inc. Chapter 3, Page 10 Instruction Manual ~ Type DT4-72.5 Rev 4 12102108 ‘+ The closing coll operates to release the mechanical latch allowing the closing spring to drive the interrupters to the closed position, while at the same time charging the opening spring + The auxiliary switch operates to the closed condition, closing all “a” auxiliary switch contacts and opening all *b” contacts. * For as long as the Close signal is maintained, the anti-pumping relay is sealed in through the “52b" auxiliary contact locking in the anti-pumping relay, and thus preventing further energizing of the ciosing coil. + When the Close signal is removed, the anti-pumping relay will be de-energized + The main contacts will move to the full closed position. If a trip signal is present, the breaker will then move to the full open position, demonstrating the “Trip-Free” function of the mechanism. 3.2. Opening Operation ‘+ When the circuit breaker is to be opened, auxiliary and SF, density relay contacts are closed in the trip circuit, assuming the circuit breaker has sufficient SF, Pressure, and is in the closed position. The trip coil is energized and releases the mechanical tripping latch to allow the opening springs to operate, opening the circuit breaker contacts ‘+ The 52a auxiliary switches remove the voltage from the trip coils when the auxiliary switch moves to the Open position. + If the breaker receives a trip (open) signal while the breaker is closed and the closing signal is still impressed on the close circuit, the breaker will open but will not close again. This is prevented by the anti-pump feature of the circuit, due to the anti-pumping contact which prevents a continued closing signal from energizing the closing coils, A Caut 3.4 Mechanical Operation Current through the coils must be interrupted immediately by the breaker auniliary switch contacts to avoid damage to the coils. The mechanical linkages and components necessary to operate the circuit breaker are driven by a stored energy operating mechanism. The breaker may be operated by energizing the trip coil momentarily to open or by energizing the closing coll momentarily to close. 3.4.1 Closing Operation ‘+ When the closing coil is energized, the armature is picked up, and the closing latch 's released. The closing latch releases the closing spring, and thereby, the closing cam, which transfers energy to the main operating shaft of the mechanism. Through a series of linkages and levers, the main operating shaft drives the circuit breaker interrupter units into the closed position, while at the same time charging the opening spring. When the closing operation is completed, the main operating DTOSFKIM ‘AREVAT & D Inc. Chapter 3, Page 11 Instruction Manual — Type DT1-72.5 Reva 12/02/08 lever of the mechanism will have been driven out and held in the closed position by the tripping latch, ‘+The oil dashpot has a minimal damping effect during closing. The energy of the closing spring is used to drive the main contacts of the circuit breaker to the closed position, and to charge the tripping spring. 3.4.2 Opening Operation ‘+ When either or both of the opening coils are energized, the tripping latch releases, and the opening spring drives the interrupter units into the open position via the main operating shaft of the mechanism. + The oil dashpot engages near the end of the opening stroke, controlling the ‘opening speed and providing damping action to prevent mechanical damage to the mechanism and interrupter units. 3.5 Control Circ is The control circuit of the breaker consists of the components necessary to energize the trip and close coils on the mechanism controls, sense the position of the breaker and controls (open or closed) and prevent breaker operations if unsafe or unsatisfactory conditions exist. The close or trip signals are normally input from the overall power system control circuit but may be input from the control station on the main panel in the electrical control cabinet. The manual trip or external electrical trip may also be used to ‘open the breaker and this circuit may not be activated further until the 69 switch (when present) is reset, ‘The manual trip is to be used only when the SF, gas system A Caution | | is above minimum pressure A caution plate is located near the control as a reminder of the conditions for operation. closing spring should never be operated unless the contro!

Connect directly to the bushing top cap. Ensure good electrical contact by cleaning an area for test equipment connection, Compare recorded measurement with those in the factory test report (refer to Chapter 7). The maximum resistance between HV bushing terminal pads must not have increased more than 20% of the value measured during routine testing at the factory | The measured contact resistance value may be slightly Note higher if there are additional connectors, elements, or terminals added to the circuit. If this is the case, consider the resistance of those items. 5.10.7 Checking the Manual Operating Function Check the manual operating function of the mechanism. Perform oné closing and one opening operation by turning the respective manual operating lever. 5.10.8 Checking the Anti-Pumping Circuit When an electrical closing command and an opening command are applied simultaneously and held on, the circuit breaker must perform only one operation. The following conditions apply: + In the Open starting position the circuit breaker will perform a closing and then an ‘opening operation. + In the Closed starting position the circuit breaker will perform an opening operation. 5.10.9 Checking the Lockout Function ‘Short-circuit the contacts of the SFs density monitor. Verify that the circuit breaker cannot be operated by electrical closing and opening commands. 5.10.10 Hi-Pot Dielectric Testing DO NOT perform hi-pot dielectic tests on this circuit breaker Caution | | win a Dc voltage. International standards, such as IEC 62271-203, recommend not to perform DC voltage tests on metal-enclosed switchgear. This circuit breaker contains internal solid insulation made with fiber/cloth reinforced vacuum-impregnated epoxy. This insulation is used in interrupter line-to-ground supports, operating rods and gap insulators. Epoxy insulation is susceptible to strong polarization under a DC voltage. The application of a DC voltage will generate charge separation which will enhance the voltage stress of these components. This is very likely to cause a dielectric failure and permanent damage to the insulation during the DC test or during final energization of the circuit breaker under AC voltage. Nevertheless, megger testing in the range of 10-20 kV is acceptable. Tests above these values should not be performed under a DC voltage. Performing any hi-pot tests above this value will void the circuit breaker warranty; AREVA T&D is not responsible for any damage caused by such a test." DTOSFK-iM ‘AREVAT & D Inc. Chapter 5, Page 24 Instruction Manual - Type DT1-72.5 F1 Rev 11 05109) 5.11 Field Testing Current Transformers Take care to prevent unintentional core magnetism during field testing. At no time should any source of DC current be used on a current transformer since certain types of DC instruments will severely magnetize the core and drastically increase its exciting current characteristics. When using a variable voltage source always run the voltage down to zero volts before turning i of, failure to do so will result in core magnetism. Under no circumstance perform any test that circulates Dera | eimary current while the secondary is open. Circulating primary current while the secondary is open will produce 5.12 Commissioning Checklist ‘The commissioning check list's primary purpose is to ensure that in the course of commissioning all important work, which must be carried out to guarantee the reliability of the breaker, is performed. dangerously high voltages.

The purposes of evacuating are to remove air, remove moisture. and detect leakage. Removing moisture, which adheres to interior surfaces, requires a vacuum with the ump running for a long time period. The drying time is reduced when the access of ambient air has been minimized. Procedure 1. Connect the vacuurn pump to the fil port ~ DILO DNB. 2. Pull a vacuum to less than 0.5 mm Hg for a minimum of 4 hours. 3. Seal the port and tum off the vacuum pump. ‘AREVAT & Dine, DTO9FKM A Manual — Type DT1-72.5 F1 Feev 6 (9/25/2008) Chapter 6, Page 16 4. Wait 30 minutes and watch the vacuum gauge. If the vacuum level rises to greater than 1.0 mm Hg in 30 minutes, the breaker may: a) Still contain moisture, in which case continue the evacuating procedure or ») Have a leak, in which case check for leaks as described in Section 6.3. 5. After pulling vacuum fill the breaker with SF to 0.3 to 0.7 bar (4 to 10 psig) and check for leaks by using a halogen leak detector. (Refer to Section 5.6 for connection and filing.)

In addition: * Check the resistance across the terminals (See Section 6.2.5) * Ensure the integrity of the insulation by a Megger test 6.4 Spring Operating Mechanism The operating mechanism consists of a steel structure that is self-supporting and Protected against corrosion. For storing the required operating energy, helical compression springs are charged by an electric motor via a gear unit (Figure 15). Electrical actuation of the closing and opening colls causes latches to be uniatched, which releases the energy of the springs for operating purposes. The spring energy is transmitted to the pole columns by the lever on the rear of the operating mechanism, the drive rod, and the connecting rods. 6.4.1, Charging the Closing Energy Storage Mechanism (See Figure 15) (Numbers in parentheses ( } refer to items in Figure 15) DTOFK-INt ‘AREVAT& Dinc. Chapter 8, Page 23 instruction Manual ~ Type DT1-72.5 Ft Rev 6 (9/26/2008) ‘After control voltage has been applied, the motor (70.01) immediately starts up and charges the closing spring (70.26) via the gear unit (70.04), crank wheel (70.30), and chain (70.26). This operation is terminated once the crank pin (70.29) with linked chain (70.26) has gone beyond top dead center and supports the roller (70.28) of the crank whee! (70.30) on the closing latch (70.05). ‘At the conclusion of the charging process, the tooth space (70.27) of the crank whee! (70.30) has reached the driving pinion. This allows the gear unit (70.04) and the motor (70.01), which has been tumed off by the control cam (70.22) and the motor limit switch (70.24), to run down and stop unimpeded without loading the closing latch (70.05). The repositioned motor limit switch (70.24) has closed the closing circuit, and the spring position indicator (70.31) has been switched to “closing spring charged.” 6.4.2 Closing Operation (See Figure 15) (Numbers in parentheses ( ) refer to items in Figure 15) The closing latch (70.05) is released by the electrical command to the closing coil (70.06) or by operation of the manual release mechanism (70.07). The closing shaft {70.09) is accelerated by action of the closing spring (70.25) linked to the crank wheel (70.30). The cam disc (70.10) tums the adjacent roller follower (70.11) in the closing direction. The circuit breaker is closed by means of the main shaft (70.12), the drive lever (70.18), and a coupled linkage. At the completion of the closing motion, after rotating 60°, the main shaft (70.12) is lowered onto the opening latch (70. 18) safely and with low impact by a lever arm of the roller follower (70.11), thanks to the especially designed cam disc (70.10). At the same time, the cam disc (70.10) has left the roller follower (70.11), and the circuit breaker is locked in the "Glosed” position and can now be opened. tn the course of the closing motion, the opening springs (70.20 and 1.806) are charged. The excess residual energy is stored again in the closing spring.
