Passive Busbar

Advantages Passive Busbar


 no active switching devices (most probable reason for failures)
► busbar failure more than unlikely
► no decomposition of SF6 – gas
 no shutdown during extension or maintenance works

Passive, Double Busbar – Advantages
Extension Procedure

Extension of existing 8DQ1 420 kV switchgear can be done without any feeder shutdown.
At least one busbar remains in service during the whole extension works.
