ZW8‑12F Outdoor High‑voltage AC Sectionalizer Vacuum Circuit Breaker
Overview
ZW8‑12F Outdoor High‑voltage AC Sectionalizer Vacuum Circuit Breaker (Commonly known as Watch‑dog)
ZW8‑12F outdoor high‑voltage AC sectionalizer vacuum circuit breaker (commonly known as Watch‑dog) is outdoor distribution equipment rated at 12 kV, 3‑phase AC 50 Hz. It consists of three main parts: switch main body, FDR‑01 fault‑detection controller and built‑in voltage transformer. These components are connected via aviation sockets and special outdoor control cables, featuring fault detection, control‑protection and communication functions.
Designed for pole‑mounted applications, this sectionalizer can automatically identify and detect milli‑ampere level zero‑sequence current and phase‑to‑phase short‑circuit fault current for in‑zone and out‑zone circuits. It can automatically clear single‑phase earth‑fault and phase‑to‑phase short‑circuit faults. An isolating knife switch can be optionally equipped.
Product Features
-
Automatically clear single‑phase earth‑fault When single‑phase earth‑fault occurs on customer branch line, the sectionalizer trips automatically without affecting substation and other branch users on the feeder. A through‑type zero‑sequence current transformer with ratio 20/1 is built‑in for earth‑fault current detection (customer optional).
-
Automatically isolate phase‑to‑phase short‑circuit fault When phase‑to‑phase short‑circuit fault occurs on customer branch line, the sectionalizer trips immediately and isolates the faulty line. Two through‑type protective current transformers (ratio 600/1 or customer‑specified) are built‑in for short‑circuit fault current detection.
-
Fast fault‑location After sectionalizer protection is triggered by branch‑line fault, only the responsible customer is powered off. Fault information is reported actively. If communication module is equipped, fault data will be automatically sent to power management center.
-
Customer load monitoring Wired or wireless communication accessories are optional to transmit monitoring data to power management center for remote real‑time load monitoring.
-
Auto‑reclosing function Parameters such as reclosing times, reclosing interval, reset time and inverse‑time curve can be set by user.
-
Accelerated tripping function for permanent fault Accelerated tripping and reclosing blocking will be activated when permanent fault is detected during reclosing sequence.
-
Power‑on delayed closing and power‑loss delayed tripping functions.
-
Loop‑network operation capability, suitable for loop network lines.
-
Metering function: capable of measuring line voltage, current, frequency and electric energy, with remote data transmission to management center.
-
Harmonic analysis function, providing reliable reference for grid pollution mitigation.
-
Diverse controller configurations Supports conventional operation & protection. GSM / GPRS module is optional for SMS and remote PC control & protection. Hand‑held terminal can be added for switch control, parameter modification and status checking.
-
Vacuum interrupter for arc‑extinguishing.
-
Air‑silicone rubber‑epoxy resin composite insulation, eliminating insulation failure risks caused by oil aging in oil‑insulated equipment.
-
Fully sealed stainless‑steel housing with superior sealing performance for explosion‑proof, anti‑condensation and anti‑pollution.
