The first Multifunctional module

Air insulated compact switchgear COMPASS
There are tenths of thousands of old
substations based on AIS; a significant
portion of that installed base is ageing.
COMPASS fits extremely well in any
substation built with AIS in mind; it is a good
compromise of:
-

Compactness.

Functions integration (CB, DS, ES, CT,

VT, SA).

Reliability.

Cost.

The module can be delivered fully assembled

or, for those countries where delivery costs
are at a premium, as subassemblies ready to
be completed on site, thus:

voltage conversion
Up to 0.5 MVA available power
SF6 isolation is non
degradable, non flammable and
prevents explosions; yearly
leakages are less than 0.1%
Compact design; installation is
limited to connection and gas
filling
System voltages from 72.5kV
to 550 kV

Applications
How to provide auxiliary power

SF6 Insulation Advantages

ABB Group
May 4, 2015 | Slide 45

Internal overpressure caused by

an internal arc gets released
through breaking of the rupture
membrane no explosion follows

SF6 is non flammable, providing

safety to people and avoiding
damages to surrounding
equipment

SF6 is non degradable: there is no

formation of conducting gases and
no consequential partial
discharges; sampling is not
required

Included density meter provides

two threshold pressure levels:
warning and alarm

Yearly gas leakages are less than

0.1%
