Abstract

A basic unit portion configured by a standard unit and a variable unit portion whose shape is configured to be changeable. The basic unit portion includes: a first pressure tank with a first opening portion; a circuit breaker; a first bushing; a first disconnecting switch. The variable unit portion includes: a busbar; a second pressure tank with a second opening portion; a second bushing whose necessary number is disposed in accordance with the number of circuits to be externally connected; and second disconnecting switches which are arranged between the busbar and the second bushing. The first opening portion of the basic unit portion and the second opening portion of the variable unit portion are joined facing each other to form into a constitutional body.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A gas insulated switchgear comprising:
a basic unit portion configured by a standard unit and a variable unit portion,
said basic unit portion including:
a first pressure tank in which insulating gas is sealed, and a first opening portion is provided in at least one surface of the first pressure tank;
a circuit breaker which is arranged in the inside of said first pressure tank, and configured to interrupt a large current;
a first disconnecting switch which is connected to said circuit breaker, and configured to disconnect a main circuit; and
a first bushing that connects said main circuit to an external apparatus, and

said variable unit portion including:
a busbar which is connected to one side terminal of said circuit breaker, and is extended in one direction;
a second pressure tank in which insulating gas is sealed, a second opening portion facing the first opening portion is provided in at least one surface of the second pressure tank, wherein the busbar is provided in the second pressure tank and the length of the second pressure tank is set in the extending direction of said busbar in accordance with the number of circuits to be externally connected;
at least one second bushing provided in accordance with the number of circuits to be externally connected, each second bushing passing through a wall of said second pressure tank and connecting an internal main circuit of said second pressure tank to an external apparatus; and
one or a plurality of second disconnecting switches is connected to said busbar, and disconnects said main circuit,

wherein the first opening portion of said basic unit portion and the second opening portion of said variable unit portion are joined facing each other to form into a single body.

2. The gas insulated switchgear according to claim 1 , wherein said busbar is horizontally disposed with respect to the ground.

3. The gas insulated switchgear according to claim 2 ,
wherein the variable unit portion is configured so that whether said busbar is connected to said second bushing directly or via said second disconnecting switch is selectable.

4. The gas insulated switchgear according to claim 2 ,
wherein said second bushing to be connected to said busbar is disposed on a wall of said second pressure tank.

5. The gas insulated switchgear according to claim 2 ,
wherein a shape of said first pressure tank is made common irrespective of the presence or absence of said second bushing to be connected to said busbar.

6. The gas insulated switchgear according to claim 2 ,
wherein a bottom surface of said first pressure tank of said basic unit portion is inclined to limit a size of the first opening portion and the second opening portion of said second pressure tank of said variable unit portion is sized according to the first opening portion.

7. The gas insulated switchgear according to claim 1 , wherein said busbar is vertically disposed with respect to the ground.

8. The gas insulated switchgear according to claim 7 ,
wherein the variable unit portion is configured so that whether said busbar is connected to said second bushing directly or via said second disconnecting switch is selectable.

9. The gas insulated switchgear according to claim 7 ,
wherein said second bushing to be connected to said busbar is disposed on a wall of said second pressure tank.

10. The gas insulated switchgear according to claim 7 ,
wherein a shape of said first pressure tank is made common irrespective of the presence or absence of said second bushing to be connected to said busbar.

11. The gas insulated switchgear according to claim 7 ,
wherein a bottom surface of said first pressure tank of said basic unit portion is inclined to limit a size of the first opening portion and the second opening portion of said second pressure tank of said variable unit portion is sized according to the first opening portion.

12. The gas insulated switchgear according to claim 1 ,
wherein the variable unit portion is configured so that whether said busbar is connected to said second bushing directly or via said second disconnecting switch is selectable.

13. The gas insulated switchgear according to claim 1 ,
wherein said second bushing to be connected to said busbar is disposed on a wall of said second pressure tank.

14. The gas insulated switchgear according to claim 1 ,
wherein a shape of said first pressure tank is made common irrespective of the presence or absence of said second bushing to be connected to said busbar.

15. The gas insulated switchgear according to claim 1 ,
wherein said first disconnecting switches constitute a three position switch which performs three operations of connecting, disconnecting, and grounding.

16. The gas insulated switchgear according to claim 1 ,
wherein said second disconnecting switches constitute a three position switch which performs three operations of connecting, disconnecting, and grounding.

17. The gas insulated switchgear according to claim 1 ,
wherein a bottom surface of said first pressure tank of said basic unit portion is inclined to limit a size of the first opening portion and the second opening portion of said second pressure tank of said variable unit portion is sized according to the first opening portion.
