Motor Drive
Up to now 85 circuit breakers with Motor Drive have been delivered.
Example:
VB Elnt, Sweden
Substation Flatenberg
LTB 145D1/B with Motor Drive for 3-pole op.

Technology
Composite insulators (Silicone rubber)
All ABB live tank circuit breakers can be delivered with composite insulators
Flashover resistant
Hydrophobic insulator surface; water stays as
droplets
The leakage currents are suppressed
Ageing withstand
Low discharge activity in case of severe pollution
Unaffected by natural UV-light
Reduces the risk for breakdown as compared to
EP rubber and epoxy material
Proven withstand from field test installations
Low mass

Application
Switching of capacitor banks
Voltage transients when energizing one phase of a 72 kV capacitor bank

Technical advantages
Reduced stresses on system components
(e.g. transformers, reactors and circuit
breakers)
Reduced maintenance of circuit breaker
May prevent false relay operations
Simple, self monitoring electronic device
Lower costs
Pre-insertion resistors, damping reactors
etc replaced
ABB PP/H/HV - Page 18
synchronism
Improve selectivity between relay protection
zones
Technology
Short break time
Optimized latches
Triple-action latches give short closing and
opening time
Balanced design; insensitive to mechanical
shock and vibrations
Benefits:
Extreme TRV-requirements can be
met with cost effective solutions
Examples:
Grading capacitors are
Capacitive switching, IEC Class C2,
unnecessary in many cases
