    FAQs

    How to deal with seawater corrosion when using 40.5kV air insulated ring main unit on deep-sea wind power platforms?

    Equipped with a deep-sea specific anti-corrosion kit, the cabinet is made of titanium alloy material and treated with multi-layer ceramic coating. Key interfaces are equipped with waterproof sealing modules, which can resist corrosion from seawater and marine atmosphere, and have a service life of over 25 years.

    Will the short-circuit breaking current of the device reach 50kA and affect the operation of surrounding equipment?

    No, the device is equipped with an efficient arc extinguishing system and fault isolation module, which can quickly cut off the fault section when disconnecting the fault current, while weakening the impact of current shock on surrounding equipment, ensuring the overall stability of the distribution network.
