GCS switchgear - a reliable choice for oil factories
In the complex operational environment of oil factories, stable and efficient power supply is the key to ensuring production continuity and safety. Our GCS switchgear is an excellent power Solution carefully crafted to meet the stringent requirements of oil factories.
Basic Overvie
Definition and Function: GCS switchgear is a power distribution equipment used in power systems, mainly used to control, protect and isolate electrical equipment. It can ensure the safe and stable operation of the power system and prevent the expansion of faults.
Composition structure: GCS switchgear is usually composed of cabinet, circuit breaker, disconnector, grounding switch, current transformer, voltage transformer and other
components. These components are installed in the cabinet in a certain order and connected by wires to form a complete electrical circuit.
Working principle: Under normal working conditions, the circuit breaker is in the closed state, and the current flows to the load through the circuit breaker; when a fault is detected, the circuit breaker quickly trips to cut off the circuit; the disconnector and grounding switch are used to isolate and ground the equipment from the power supply during inspection or maintenance.
Key Structural Characteristice
• Modular Design: 8 standardized module widths (160/200/240/320/400/480/560/640mm)
• Separation Levels: Form 3b separation between functional units and busbars
• Thermal Management: Natural convection cooling channels and heat-resistant components
• Withdrawal Mechanism: Three-position (Connected/Test/Disconnected) racking system with mechanical indicators
• Accessory Mounting: Dedicated spaces for CTs, relays, and monitoring devices
• This structure ensures safe operation up to 690V AC with short-time withstand current (Icw) of 50kA/1s. The vertical busbar system allows flexible power distribution configurations.
Single Phase vs Three Phase Differences: Single - phase electricity is commonly used in households, small commercial places, etc., to power electrical appliances with relatively low power. Such as various home appliances in households, lighting and small - scale equipment in small shops. Three - phase electricity is widely used in the industrial field to power high - power mechanical equipment, electric motors, etc. For example, machine tools, water pumps, and ventilation equipment in factories, which can meet their high - power requirements.
