C.B
Bus
Disadvantages
i. Failure of bus or any C.B results shutdown (power outage) in entire sub-
station.
ii. Difficult to do maintenance.
iii. Bus can not be extended without its de-energising.
iv. This can be used where loads have other supply arrangements if bus
looses supply.

Isolator
Bus 2
Line Line
Substation Bus Schemes
Advantages
i. Each circuit has two breakers.
ii. It allows feeder circuits to be connected to be either bus.
iii. Any breaker can be taken out from service for maintenance.
iv. High reliability.
Disadvantages
i. Most costly or expensive.
ii. Would loose half of the circuit for breaker failure. If circuits are not
connected to both buses.

3. Main and Transfer Bus Scheme

C.B
Here, “OR” logic is
used
Main Bus
Bus
Coupler
Transfer
Bus
Isolator
Disadvantages
i. It requires one extra breaker for bus tie.
ii. Switching is complicated when breaker maintenance.
iii. Failure of bus or any of the breaker results in shutdown of entire sub-
station.

Substation Bus Schemes
Advantages
i. High flexibility operation.
ii. High reliability.
iii. Very simple in operation.
iv. Breaker failure of bus side breaker removes only one circuit from service
v. All switching is done by breakers.
vi. Bus failure does not remove any feeder circuits from service.
Disadvantages
i. 1 and ½ breaker per circuit.
ii. Relaying and automatic reclosing are somewhat involved since the
middle breaker must be responsive to either of its associated circuits.
