1. Product introduction:

LW58A-550 GCB is one of AC transmission switchgear, which is composed of circuit breaker, current transformer, bushing. And it can control, measure, protect power system of 550kV.

Advantages:

• The domestic first high power spring operation mechanism of circuit breaker , which has the small volume and is safe and stable, free of maintenance. high reliable and conform to oil free and gas free requirements for operation mechanism;
• Interrupter unit adopts shunt capacitor to balance the voltage between open contacts It improves short line fault breaking capability;
• Excellent insulation level and low partial discharge. The only company in the industry that can achieve: under the 80% power-frequency withstand voltage (80%×740kV = 592kV), the partial discharge of intervals is lower than 5pC, the partial discharge of the insulator is lower than 3pC. It’s better than the IEC standard that the partial discharge should be lower than 5pC under 1.2 times phase voltage (1.2×550/√3 = 381kV);
• Partial discharge and lightning impulse voltage withstand test before delivery; The hidden trouble of discharge must be eliminated and ensure the reliability of  products;
• The insulator quality is stable and reliable. The insulator pouring process reaches the international advanced level;
• High parametric: All product technical parameters are the highest standard in the industry;
• Arrangement of circuit breaker is horizontal, it’s convenient for overhauling and emergency maintenance; it also will make lighter impact to the ground;
• Flange surface adopts double sealing ring structure, inner ring sealing gas, and its gas leakage rate is lower than IEC standard. Its outer ring prevents water and impurities from getting inside thus to improve safety and reliability;
