    FAQs

    Is there a difference in the service life of 10kV air-insulated ring main units compared to SF6 type?

    There is no significant difference. The core components are made of aging-resistant materials, and the sealing and insulation structures are optimized. The average service life is over 20 years, and the operation and maintenance costs are lower. The replacement cost in the later stage is much lower than that of SF6 equipment.

    Can the equipment be adapted to meet the requirements of uninterrupted power distribution network operations?

    Support. An optional bypass switch module can be equipped, which, in conjunction with insulated operation tools, enables live line maintenance and load transfer, significantly reducing the duration of power outages and meeting the high reliability requirements of urban distribution networks.

    Related Applications

    Urban distribution network trunk line: As the core control equipment of the urban 10kV distribution network trunk line, it can achieve multi-loop ring network interconnection and sectional protection. It is installed in small distribution rooms alongside urban roads and within green belts. Its intelligent functions can be integrated with the municipal distribution network automation system to quickly isolate fault sections and restore power supply to non-fault areas, ensuring continuous electricity supply for residents’ lives, commercial offices, and public facilities. It is suitable for urban high-density load and space-constrained scenarios.

    Large commercial complexes: Places such as shopping centers and urban complexes have high load density and include critical loads such as elevators, central air conditioning, and emergency lighting. This equipment can serve as the core hub of the complex’s distribution network, enabling 10kV incoming line distribution and rapid fault handling. At the same time, it poses no SF6 gas hazards, meeting the safety and environmental protection requirements of commercial venues. Its modular design can accommodate the load growth needs of the complex’s future business expansion.

    Upgrading of distribution network in industrial parks: Traditional industrial parks often face issues such as outdated distribution network equipment and insufficient power supply reliability. This equipment can replace old oil-immersed distribution equipment, establish a 10kV ring main unit (RMU) power supply system, and achieve segmented control and load transfer for various production lines within the park. The intelligent monitoring function enables park operation and maintenance personnel to grasp the distribution status in real time, reduce fault diagnosis time, and provide stable power support for efficient production in the park.
