Comparison of epoxy resin and ceramics
While there are many formulations of alicyclic epoxy resins and many varieties of ceramics, each with their own specific qualities and parameters, there are some general comparisons . First, in the physical realm, the following relationships are typical: – The weight of an alicyclic epoxy resin is less than 70% of the weight of porcelain, […]

Medium and low voltage switchgear
Low and medium-voltage switchgear, customised to order requirements and according to specific electrical system diagrams. Engineering requirements vary and it is difficult to standardise and define products. Although the MNS low-voltage cabinets, KYN28 middle cabinet mechanism, appearance is similar, but the specific implementation of the project, large to the current specifications cabinet size, small to […]
Double-Layer Cabinets in Medium-Voltage Switchgear
Double-layer switchgear is not a new concept; it dates back to the 1950s when the United States introduced metal-clad double-layer withdrawable switchgear. This innovative design featured two double circuit breakers, eliminating the need for a separate instrument room. Instruments were integrated onto the door of the circuit breaker room, while relays, terminals, and other components […]
What is contact box
Medium-voltage metal-clad withdrawable switchgear cabinets require a contact box. The so-called contact box is actually a common name in the industry for an insulating sleeve used to install static contacts and to provide electrical isolation from grounded parts such as the mounting plate and the busbar phase. Why need contact box? Withdrawal type i.e. circuit […]
Medium and low voltage switchgear busbar overlap
With regard to busbar joint current density, some users require a specific maximum value for current density in busbar joints, or a full lap, but this design criterion may not have any bearing on the resulting temperature rise of the busbar system. Most of the actual current transfer in busbar joints occurs below the area […]
Consequences of Vacuum Loss in Vacuum Interrupters: Operating Conditions and Impacts
The loss of vacuum in a vacuum interrupter can have various consequences depending on the operating conditions. Here are the consequences for different scenarios: a. Contacts Open: If the contacts are open, the loss of vacuum typically does not affect the system significantly. The vacuum interrupter’s condition is not critical when the contacts are not […]
