3.1 GENERAL
3.1 GENERAL
This series of lower parts has been designed for installation on equipment with rated
voltage up to 170 kV.
The bases are made in hot-dip galvanized steel and the dimensions are calculated so
that they can resist mechanical stress due, for instance, to the action transmitted by
the conductors to the line terminals, to short-time currents, etc.
The following figures show some examples of assembled lower bases of this series of
disconnectors in the several possible configurations (see section 1 of this document):
S2DA: three-pole disconnector, configuration with parallel poles (Fig. 3.1);
S2DAT: three-pole disconnector, configuration with parallel poles, earthing switch
on the right side (Fig. 3.2);
S2DAT: three-pole disconnector, configuration with parallel poles, earthing switch
on the left side (Fig. 3.3);
S2DA2T: three-pole disconnector, configuration with parallel poles, double
earthing switch (on the right side and on the left side) (Fig. 3.4);
S2DA: three-pole disconnector, configuration with lined poles (Fig. 3.5);
S2DAT: three-pole disconnector, configuration with lined poles, earthing switch on
the right side (Fig. 3.6);
S2DAT: three-pole disconnector, configuration with lined poles, earthing switch on
the left side (Fig. 3.7);

Lay down the insulators on the rotary discs 3.8 and 3.9
and check that the holes on the top flanges are at 45° in
relation to the lengthwise axis of the bases (see Fig.
3.24).
Fasten temporarily the insulators with the specific bolts.
Using a spirit level laid on the top flanges of the
insulators, check that the flanges are level as shown in
Fig. 3.24.
Turn the rotary discs 3.8 and 3.9 manually and set the
disconnector to the OPEN position.

If needed insert the specific C-washers between the lower flange and the rotary disc,
to bring the system to the required conditions. When you have achieved the required
conditions, tighten the fastening bolts.
Any C-washers must be inserted as shown in Fig. 3.25, in such a

Refer to section 3 of this manual for details.
Insert the top of the vertical drive shaft 4.3 or 4.4 into the specific bush located on the
support of the lower base.
Insert the bottom of the vertical drive shaft 4.3 or 4.4 into the hub of the drive and
fasten it temporarily by means of the special screws complete with self-locking nut
and washers, as shown in Fig. 4.2.
If needed, loosen the bolts that fasten the drive 7.1 or 7.2 to the structure, raise or
lower the drive and then tighten the bolts again, in order to get the exact dimensions
shown in the specific installation drawing.
Check also that the drive is horizontal; if needed shim on the fastening bars.
Check that the drive shaft 4.3 or 4.4 is vertical in the two perpendicular directions.
Now you can tighten the bolt 7.10 to lock the shaft.

5.1 GENERAL
5.1 GENERAL
These series of live parts have been designed for installation on equipment with rated
current up to 3150 A.
The main contacts are made of four blades (female contacts) and two plates (male
contacts) in copper and suitably shaped.
These components are fastened to the ends of the aluminum profiles that make up the
respective mobile arms; moreover, a spring suitably positioned at the end of the female
arm ensures an adequate contact pressure.
The contacts couple with a sliding movement and the system is therefore self-cleaning
and self-tightening; this ensures the best behavior in the case of stress due to short
circuit currents.
The dimensions of the profiles, contacts and all live parts depend on the rated current
of the equipment; the complete range is shown in Table 5.1.
Fig. 5.1 shows as an example the “II Series” live part for 2000 A, while Fig. 5.2 shows the
detail of the related system of main contacts.
Similarly, Fig. 5.3 shows the “EVO” live part for 3150 A, while Fig. 5.4 shows the detail of

5.2.2 INSTALLATION OF THE LIVE PARTS OF THE S2DA / S2DAT / S2DA2T DISCONNECTORS
The sequence of steps required for installing the live part is the
same for all types and does not depend on the electrical
Important characteristics (rated current).
As an example, we take the live part of 2000 A shown in Fig. 5.1.
5.2.2.1 Arms
The two arms, the male one 5.2 and the female one 5.1, that
make up the live part of the disconnector are not symmetrical.
If the arms are swapped, the disconnector does not work and
Important any operation may damage the live parts.
Use the specific stickers on the lower base as guides for the
correct installation of the arms.
Check that the lower base is in OPEN position (see Section 3 of this document).
Sling and lift the arms 5.1 and 5.2 as shown in Fig. 5.5.

5.2 INSTALLATION AND ADJUSTMENTS
Position the arms 5.1 and 5.2 on the respective rotary insulators and fasten them to
the flanges with the specific screws and plain washers (Fig. 5.6).
When the poles of the disconnector are in CLOSED positions and the
terminals are disconnected, the flexible conductors 5.13 have a
tendency to unwind and turn the shank 5.14, which displaces it from
Important the correct position.
Therefore, before installing the line-terminal clamps, the shanks
5.14 must be suitably aligned with the live parts.
Grasp the shank 5.14 with your hands and turn it in the correct direction
(counterclockwise for the female arm and clockwise for the male arm) until the hole "F"
(Fig. 5.7) is aligned with the longitudinal axis of the live part.
Insert then a screwdriver, or another suitable tool, into the hole "F" (see Fig. 5.7) to hold
the shank 5.14 in the correct position while installing the clamp.
Finally insert the clamp on the respective shank 5.14 and align it with the longitudinal
axis of the live part; tighten then the fastening screws.

Carry out slowly a CLOSING operation and check that the male contacts are centered
when reaching the female contacts.
In this CLOSED position, check that the male and female arms complete their travels
(about 90°), are aligned (tolerance ±2°) and that all the conditions shown in Fig. 5.8A (for
“II Series” live parts) and 5.8B (for “EVO Series” live parts) are fulfilled.
Check also that the male contact is correctly inserted into the female contact, keeping
the distance "d" (tolerance +10 / -10), as stated in Fig. 5.1 (see Table 5.2).
Carry out a slow OPENING operation (opening angle 90°±4°), and check that the male
contacts separate correctly.
If needed, use the freedom of positioning in the fastening holes of the insulator upper
and/or lower part.
Tighten the screws and perform a few manual opening and closing operations to
check the adjustments.
If needed, repeat the operations above.

These series of earthing switches has been designed with the goal of constructing a
reliable and modular piece of equipment, simple to install and maintain, suitable for
installation in any location, both indoors and outdoors.
As add-on to line disconnectors, the equipment is made of:
A mobile arm, hinged on the lower base of the earthing switch and carrying a
mobile contact at its free end;
A fixed contact, installed on the live part of the earthing switch.
The mobile arm is an aluminum alloy profile and is detachable from its lower base to
make transport easier.

8.4 SPARE PARTS
As shown in the relevant figures of the previous sections, to lift the units, a truck crane
equipped with adequate ropes (slings) with eyes is required.
No other special tools are therefore required.

The number of this manual;
The number of the figure and the number of the item in the figure;
The customer's order number, the type of disconnector/earthing switch and its
serial number.
NOTE: When replacing live parts through which current will flow, the surfaces that are
permanently in contact must be treated as follows (e.g. the contact surface between
the terminal pad and the fixed-contact support):
Wipe off any trace of grease from the contact surfaces with non-abrasive solvent.
If the surfaces are oxidized, clean them up with a steel brush or fine emery paper;
Cover them immediately with antioxidant paste;
Connect the surfaces as soon as possible.
Surfaces through which wiping-contact current flows (e.g. mobile contact blades) must
be covered with a thin layer of NYOGEL 760G grease (to be restored at each
inspection).
