S3CD

Double Side Break Disconnector up to 550 kV

The S3CD is a double side break disconnector on which the center insulator rotates to open and close the switch. It is particularly suited for applications in which low vertical clearance prohibits the use of other disconnectors. The S3CD is a rugged performer in adverse operating conditions and is always stable in the close position during short circuits.

Customer Benefits

High performance with proven reliability
Reduced phase spacing requirements
Built-in or retro-fitted earthing switches
Built-in arc restrictor available
Virtually maintenance free
Easy start-up and commissioning
Designed for high current performance up to 6000 A
