TNI - Load Break Switching and Fault Interrupting both with Integral Ground

As a proven solution in corrosive environments and submersible applications, G&W Electric model TNI padmount switches include load break and fault interrupting capability with visible break and integral ground position on each way. This eliminates the need to handle any high voltage connections to ground the cable. The high voltage connections are positioned on the opposite side of the switch operators to further isolate the operator from high voltage. The fault interrupters provide electronically controlled, resettable over current protection in a totally sealed, dead front device. The switches are designed for use on 3-phase systems with voltages up to 38kV, 630A load break, and continuous current, with 12.5kA, 20kA, and 25kA symmetrical fault interrupting ratings.

The switches are designed to IEEE C37.72, C37.74, and C37.60 for load break and fault interrupting capability. Padmount enclosures are designed and tested to IEEE C57.12.28 and C57.12.29.

Features and Benefits

Construction – Available with front accessible switch operators and bushings or with front and back operators and bushings for replacement of existing pad mount air or oil insulated equipment. Vault construction is also available with top or bottom bushings or top access to operators and bushings.

Visible Break – Load break ways are equipped with visible break to view the open and closed positions.

Fault Interrupting – Three phase fault interrupting up to 25kA with selectable industry curves including fuse emulation curves.

Ground Position – Integral ground position on load break ways to eliminate the need to handle high voltage components to ground the cable.

Voltage Sensing – Load break ways are available with integral voltage sensing for use with voltage indication panel to determine in-phase condition or for use with a relay with up to 1% accuracy.

Automation – Available for motor automation with portable or permanently mounted motor and controls. A variety of relays such as SEL, ABB, and GE are available with G&W Electric programming and cabinet construction. Cabinets can be ordered in a low voltage enclosure for padmount, pedestal or IP68 rated submersible for vault installed switchgear. Programming for automatic source transfer, or LaZer custom solutions are available.
