Abstract

The present disclosure discloses a busbar-side voltage transformer cabinet including a busbar chamber configured to install a busbar therein; an inflation chamber arranged below the busbar chamber and configured to install an electrical device therein, and filled with insulating gas; and a cable chamber arranged below the inflation chamber and configured to install a feeder therein, the cable chamber is installed with a voltage transformer, the inflation chamber is provided with an isolation device to switch the voltage transformer between on state and grounded state. According to the present disclosure, there is no need to add an additional isolation switch cabinet to control grounding and connection of the voltage transformer; the voltage transformer is installed in the cable chamber at the bottom, so there is no need for additional small gas box, which saves space and the height of the cabinet is the same as that of other cabinets.

First claim

1 . A busbar-side voltage transformer cabinet, comprising:
a busbar chamber, configured to install a busbar therein; an inflation chamber, arranged below the busbar chamber and configured to install an electrical device therein, and filled with insulating gas; and a cable chamber, arranged below the inflation chamber and configured to install a feeder therein, wherein the cable chamber is installed with a voltage transformer, the inflation chamber is provided with an isolation device configured to switch the voltage transformer between an on state and a grounded state, the voltage transformer is connected with the busbar when the voltage transformer is in the one state.

2 . The busbar-side voltage transformer cabinet according to claim 1 , wherein a busbar bushing connected to the busbar extends from the busbar chamber into the inflation chamber, the voltage transformer is connected with the busbar by being connected with the busbar bushing.

3 . The busbar-side voltage transformer cabinet according to claim 2 , further comprising:
a mechanism chamber arranged outside the inflation chamber and configured to be accessible from outside, an operating mechanism for operating the isolation device to switch the voltage transformer between the on state and the grounded state is arranged in the mechanism chamber.

4 . The busbar-side voltage transformer cabinet according to claim 3 , wherein the isolation device comprises a drive shaft configured to rotate between a first shaft position and a second shaft position, in the first shaft position, the voltage transformer is connected with the busbar bushing, and in the second shaft position, the voltage transformer is grounded.

5 . The busbar-side voltage transformer cabinet according to claim 4 , wherein the drive shaft is connected with the operating mechanism, the operating mechanism drives the drive shaft to rotate between the first shaft position and the second shaft position.

6 . The busbar-side voltage transformer cabinet according to claim 2 , wherein the isolation device is installed close to the busbar bushing.

7 . The busbar-side voltage transformer cabinet according to claim 1 , further comprising a transformer bushing connected with the voltage transformer, the isolation device is connected with the transformer bushing through a hard copper rod.

8 . The busbar-side voltage transformer cabinet according to claim 1 , wherein the electrical device is a circuit breaker or an isolation switch.

9 . The busbar-side voltage transformer cabinet according to claim 1 , wherein the insulating gas is dry air.

10 . The busbar-side voltage transformer cabinet according to claim 9 , wherein the busbar-side voltage transformer cabinet with the isolation device has same height, width and depth with an electrical cabinet filled with SF6 gas and having no voltage transformer isolation function.
