UX  Safe, reliable MV switchgear with sustainability built-in Innovative in its design, originated from the Unitolefamily, field-proven over forty years of vacuum circuitbreaker production and fully third-party certified to IEC 62271-100 and IEC 62271-200, Eaton's new UX rangeof compact air insulated with drawable Medium Voltageswitchgear leads the industry in safety, reliability,performance and sustainability. Knowledge andunderstanding Eaton has over 80 yearsexperience in the design,manufacture and application ofMedium Voltage switchgear.Being at the forefront oftechnological advances, wepioneered the use of vacuumtechnology 80 years ago andintroduced epoxy-resin insulationover 50 years ago. Eaton is stillcommitted to developing, inno -vating and improving - as wellas to reducing size and costs. Millions of our vacuum inter -rupters have been in operationin every type of environment inthe world, catering for thewidest range of applications. It is this know ledge, under -standing and experience thatmake Eaton the logical choicefor the safe control and protec -tion of distribution systems. UX is particularly suited toprovide control and protec tionfor cables, transformers,capacitors and motors usedacross many industries. In factUX excels anywhere thatmedium voltage power has tobe switched, controlled andprotected.  Built to the highest qualitystandards UX is designed and fully third-party type-tested to the latestIEC 62271-200 standards, withfull segregation by earthedmetal partitions of all the majorcompartments, and is equippedwith Eaton's very latest range ofIEC vacuum circuit breakerstype W-VAC i - which are fully third-party type-tested inaccordance with IEC 62271-100.  Using Eaton's state of the arttechnology and manufactured inaccordance with the highestquality standards, our engineershave integrated coretechnologies, such as circuitbreaker and mechanism design,vacuum technology, solidinsulation and electrical fieldcontrol to build a reliable andcompact system, which benefitfrom the best practicesincorporated in our currentmedium voltage range. The system, which comprises acomplete range up to 4000 A,uses only environmentallyfriendly technology andmaterials. UX is based onvacuum technology and airinsulation, and is therefore theperfect alternative to  environmentally harmful SF 6 gas insulated switchgear. It is also produced with fullyrecyclable materials ensuringthat at the end of its life theproduct can be safely andefficiently recycled - providing a wholly sustainable solution  to medium voltage switchgearapplications. Some applications are: • Power distribution • Water and waste water treatment • Mining • Commercial buildings • Industrial facilities • Oil and gas (on- and off-shore) • Marine • Airports and hospitals. 4 A complete range of compact, environmentally-friendly switchgear up to 4000 A

Combining advanced technology with proven engineering excellence, the UX range provides thehighest safety and reliability standards withoutcompromising competitiveness. As pioneers in vacuum and arc-interruption technologies, furtherdeveloped over 40 years, Eaton has millions of vacuum interrupterssuccessfully operating in multiple applications worldwide; Eaton'slatest vacuum circuit breaker, the W-VAC i , sits at the heart of UX. 5 World leading technology with safety built in Low initial costs due to:  • Compact footprint • Cable access from front  or rear  • Cable entry from either  top or bottom • Easy-access cable compartment for ease ofcable connection • Integrated arc chamber • Back to wall configuration with front cable access Low lifetime cost The switchgear is type tested tothe latest IEC 62271-200 andhas third-party certification toprove internal arc containmentclassification of AFLR from 25 kA for 1 second and up to 40 kA for 1 second and 50 kAfor 0.5 second. This means  there is minimal risk of harm topersonnel in the unlikely eventof an internal arc in the cablecompartment, vacuum circuitbreaker compartment or thebusbar compartment in anydirection: front, rear and sidesof the switchgear. Fully type-tested to latest IEC standards Increasing global legislationconcerning the use of green -house gases such as SF 6 gas and their related disposal costs,makes vacuum technology withits reliability, low maintenance,and low environmental impactthe choice for now and thefuture. As the world strives to reducethe amount of SF 6 gas used in all applications there is aresponsibility on the users ofelectrical switchgear to find,where appropriate, alternativesto SF 6 gas as an insulation and switching medium. Air and solidinsulation switchgear systemsincorporating vacuum switchingtechnologies are a reliable, safeand economic alternative foruse in electrical systems below36 kV and therefore should beused instead of SF 6 gas insulated systems.

9 Eaton core technologies Cast-resin is a high-qualityprimary insulation material. By using cast-resin for solidinsulation, Eaton's designengineers can shape the partsspecifically for optimalinsulation, robust constructionand cooling purposes.  With over 50 years ofexperience in the design andmanufacture of cast-resincomponents, Eaton hasdetermined that the bestsolution is to embed theconductors and vacuuminterrupters directly into themoulding to form a singleencapsulated pole unit (EPU). Features • High mechanical strength for improved durability andmechanical life of the poleunit • Protected against adverse climatic conditions andhumidity • Protected against mechanical impact, shockand vibration • Provides high thermal conductivity for improvedtemperature rating • High electrical resistivity and creepage current resistancefor improved insulation andcompact design Solid insulation using cast-resin technology Eaton's vacuum interruptersconsist of a ceramic cylinderthat houses fixed and movablecontacts. Movement of thecontact under vacuumconditions is performed bybellows. A shield surroundingthe contacts prevents theinsulators from becomingcontaminated by any metalvapour produced during currentinterruption. This shield alsoensures good voltage potentialdistribution over the insulator. A special feature of Eaton'svacuum interrupters is thecreation of a large number ofparallel arcs between thecontacts. This "diffusedischarge" is characterised byvery low arc voltage and short arc times, resulting in very low arc energy - so contactwear in a vacuum interrupter is negligible.  Vacuum interrupters are main -tenance free and are certifiedup to 30,000 operation cycles.

12 Safe and reliable in use  IEC62271-200 describes theextent to which the switchgearand control gear are allowed toremain operational in caseaccess to a main compartmentis necessary.  UX has the highest attainablelevel of Loss of ServiceContinuity of LSC2B. Category LSC2B This form allows for maximumcontinuity of service of thesystem during access to thecompartments inside theswitchgear - meaning that themain switching device of eachfunctional unit of an LSC2Bswitchgear is fitted in its ownaccessible compartment.Maintenance may be performedon the main switching devicewithout de-energizing the  corresponding cable connectionor the main busbars. As aconsequence, in this exampleof LSC2B switchgear, aminimum of 3 compartmentsfor each functional unit isnecessary: • 1 for each main switching device • 1 for components connected to one side of a mainswitching device, forexample, feeder circuit • 1 for components connected to the other side of the mainswitching device, forexample, busbars Switchgear is classified asLSC2B when it is possible andsafe to open the circuit breakercompartment when the cableand busbars are energised. In addition to the IAC and theLSC classifications, IEC62271-200 defines the type ofpartitions required betweeneach panel and between eachfunctional unit within the panel.  UX employs only earthed metalpartitions and therefore has thehighest level of partitionclassification of PM. UX switchgear is equipped withautomatic earthed metalshutters. Individually operatedshutters for both the Line  (busbar) and Load (cable)connections can be padlockedin the closed position. Whenthe vacuum circuit breaker is inthe test or the disconnectpositions the shutters willautomatically close to preventaccidental contact with any liveparts. For testing purposes,special shutter lifters are usedto maintain the shutters in theopen position. Colour codedand labelled 'Busbar' and'Cable', the shutters are easilyidentified as Open or Closed. Loss of service continuity classification Partition classification Internal Arc Classification (IAC) of AFLR While the integrity of theequipment to provide continuityof supply was a major designconsideration throughout itsdevelopment, the safety of theoperator has also been one ofthe most important criteria, witha number of reassuring featuresbuilt in.  All of Eaton's medium voltagesystems, including UX, havebeen third party tested to allrelevant standards, and are inaccordance with IEC regulations.  Eaton has always emphasisedthe need to design and createsafe switchgear for operators atall times.  One of the biggest potentialthreats to operators is an  internal arc in the switchgear.The metal-clad design and therobust construction has enabledUX to success fully pass internalarcing test in accor dance withIEC 62271-200 in all threeprimary compart ments andprovides an IAC rating of up to40 kA for 1 second and 50 kAfor 0.5 second.  IEC62271-200 defines the levelof protection to be provided inthe event of an internal arc faultbeing generated within theswitchgear. UX has been provenby independent third-party testto provide an IAC Classificationof IAC = AFLR. A = Protection for personnel F = Protection at the Front of the switchgear L = Protection at the Lateral (sides) of the switchgear R = Protection at the Rear of the switchgear The IEC standard requires thatan internal arc test is carried outin each of the power sections ofthe switchgear. In UX thismeans the cable compart ment,the vacuum circuit breakercompartment, and the mainbusbar compartment.  The standard allows for eachtest to be conducted inindividual switchgear panels -meaning that three separatepanels can be used to prove theintegrity of the design.  UX, however, has achievedIEC62271-200 with all threetests being conducted in thesame panel. It is an importantsafety feature and indication ofstrength that UX passed allthree required tests in the samepanel. The UX has the following IACratings: 12 kV and 17.5 kV: 25 kA - 1 s, 26.3 kA - 1 s, 31.5 kA - 1 s, 40 kA - 1 s and 50 kA - 0.5 s 24 kV: 25 kA - 1 s Proven experience and knowledge gained by Eatonover many years in the areas of cast-resin technology,vacuum technology, arc interruption and electricalfield control have been integrated in the design anddevelopment of UX - ensuring that the switchgear issafe and has high operational reliability throughout itslifetime.

UX has an external protectiondegree of IP4X as per IEC 60529with an option of IP41 available.Internal ingress protection toIP2X is standard with an optionfor IP3X for more demandingapplications. Separationeliminates the penetration offoreign objects and reduces therisk of accidental contact withany live parts. Ingress of foreign objects 13 For personnel safety UX is designed with anumber of comprehensive mechanical interlocksto prevent unsafe operation.  • It is not possible to rack-in or rack-out a circuit breaker unless it is in the Off or Open position. • It is not possible to close a circuit breaker unless the circuit breaker is in the Connectedor Test position. • The secondary socket can only be disconnected with the circuit breaker in thetest position. • Closing the circuit breaker is only possible  with the secondary contacts connected. • It is not possible to close the earth switch when the circuit breaker is in the Connectedposition. • The door of the vacuum circuit breaker compartment can only be opened when thecircuit beaker is in the Disconnected / Testposition. • It is only possible to rack-in or rack-out the circuit breaker when the circuit breaker door is closed. • The cable compartment door can only be opened when the earth switch is in the Closed position. • The earth switch cannot be Opened when  the cable compartment door is open. Safety interlocks In addition to the third partycertified type testingprogramme to prove theintegrity of the UX design,Eaton conducts routine testson each vacuum interrupter,circuit breaker and switchgearpanel. At a minimum thesetests confirm compliance withthe relevant IEC standards;however customer specific testprocedures and witness oftests can be accommodated.To ensure quality, all processesare performed in accordancewith ISO 9001 - at every stageof production the components,circuit breakers and currenttransformers are inspected forcorrect functioning. When theentire installation has beenassembled, a thorough visualinspection is carried out,together with the requiredmechanical, functional andelectrical checks. Routine tests IEC62271-200 defines theaccessibility classification foreach of the power sections inthe switchgear. UX has thefollowing accessibilitydefinitions. • Busbar:  tool-based/non-accessible • Circuit breaker:  interlocked controlled • Cable:  tool-based or option forinterlocked controlled Accessibility ofcompartments

14 The UX is designed to be environmentallyfriendly throughout thelife-cycle: from production,during service and at theend-of-life. One of Eaton's key strategicinitiatives is to provideenvironmentally friendlyproducts. This requiresexamination of the total life-cycle, from design todecommissioning.  The product life-cycle can bedivided into five main blocks.These blocks are • The design  • Materials used • The assembly • The operational phase • The decommissioning  Eaton's production plants actentirely in accordance with therules and procedures of the ISO 14001 environmentalcertificate during developmentand production processes. Environmentally friendly Sustainability Material selection and thenumber of parts that are usedto manufacture the UX arecritical to determining howenvironmentally friendly themanufacturing process is.  Eaton selects its materials toensure that they have the lowest possible impact on theenvironment. It is essential thatthey are equally safe for people- not just during use, but at theend of service life too. Within UX and the W-VAC i circuit breaker, a combination ofsolid (cast-resin) and air is used as insulation. The cast-resintechnology, in combination withelectrical field calculations,provides a very compact,environmentally friendly designfor the circuit breaker and theswitchgear. Because theswitching medium - vacuum - is used, UX can be completelyrecycled at the end of its lifewithout any issues relating tosafety procedures, specialhandling or safe disposal.  Environmentally friendly design From the very beginning Eatonmade a fundamental choice notto use SF 6 as a switching and insulation medium for mediumvoltage equipment - it is on thelist of greenhouse gasses in theKyoto protocol and is the mostpotent of the six maingreenhouse gasses, with aGlobal Warming Potential(GWP) of 23,000. Some medium voltageswitchgear systems use SF 6 gas as the insulating medium. Leakage of SF 6 gas from switchgear contributessignificantly to the threat of thegreenhouse effect andassociated climate change.They also require additionalsafety measures and specialhandling requirements at theend of life.  No use of SF 6 -gas for insulation or switching UX is produced in an energyefficient environment. Standardprocesses and materials areused in the design and requireno special handling or manu -facturing processes, thusreducing the amount of energyrequired to manufacture andassemble the switchgear. Energy efficient assembly Besides the energy sources,special focus is placed on theefficient use of material duringassembly. For example by usingadvanced nesting tools thesheet steel plates are cut withthe least amount of waste, andsimilar principles are followed inthe design and manufacture ofother product components. Efficient use of materials UX is designed for a lifetime ofat least 30 years; therefore theenergy usage for maintenanceactivities during this long periodis minimal. Due to the greeninsulation and switching tech -nology, there is also no leakageof the harmful SF 6 gas during its lifetime and no need forperforming extra mainte nanceactivities on SF 6 gas pressure checks.  Minimum service checks on site All materials within UX can bere-used or recycled. Becausethe UX uses no SF 6 gas, there is no possibility of leakage ofthis greenhouse gas duringdecommissioning theswitchgear.  Re-use or recycling ofmaterials The number of electricalcontact or changeover pointswithin the UX system has beenkept to an absolute minimum.This reduces the potentialnumber of "hot spots" andprevents additional energy lossassociated with contactsurfaces. Minimal energy loss during operation

Low total cost ofownership Designed to provide at least 30 years of reliable servicethe UX design guarantees low overall cost of ownershipwhen considered over the lifetime of the switchgear.  Life-time costs can be split into initial costs, costs incurred duringservice and finally, costs for disposal of the switchgear. All costsof ownership are influenced by different features of theswitchgear provided with no concession to quality and reliability. 15 Panel dimensions With panel dimensions of 600 mm, 800 mm and 1000 mm with only 3 depths of panel across all ratings of1320 mm, 1500 mm and 1550 mm, UX is one of themost compact designs of airinsulated medium voltageswitchgear available today. Thecompact design of UX allowsfor smaller switchrooms to bebuild further reducing theoverall cost of installation. Flexible cable access The UX offers top and bottomcable entry with cable accessfrom either front or rear. If frontaccess is chosen it is possibleto mount the UX panels flushagainst the wall thus reducingfurther the space needed in thebuilding.  Low initial costs UX switchgear has a typicallifetime of at least 30 years.Depending on the location ofthe installation, this lifetime canbe extended. If, for any reason,a decision is made not to usethe switchgear any further itcan be fully recycled.  When decommissioned, theswitchgear can be dismantledand the different materials caneither be re-used or recycledwith total safety. Because noSF 6 gas is used, decommis - sioning is a less complicated,more cost effective and anenvironmentally friendlyoperation. There are no specialprecautions, tools ordecommissioning methodsrequired.  Low disposal cost Costs during service ofswitchgear can accumulate dueto damaged parts requiringreplacement, or by maintenancecycles set up for critical partsthat will not reach theirexpected lifetime without beingserviced.  Keeping this in mind during the initial design of the UX, thefirst design steps undertakenwere to:  • Minimise the number of parts used in theconstruction  • Design using industry standard or readily availableraw materials  • Prevent internal parts from being damaged during thelifetime of the unit.  This robust construction, usingonly the minimum number ofparts, is based on our longexperience of buildingswitchgear. During productionof the panels, routine tests arecarried out by specialists, toensure that the panels achievethe quality that they aredesigned for.  Low cost during service By designing a simple, modular,efficient, proven, low energyspring charged mechanismwith the fewest possiblenumber of parts for the vacuumcircuit breaker, the maintenancerequirements normallyassociated with this type ofmechanism is dramaticallyreduced.  With proven reliability of up to20,000 operations the UniversalMechanism Assembly used inthe W-VAC i breaker helps to provide a virtually maintenance-free circuit breaker. Vacuum interrupter designplays an important role in thereduction of maintenance.Eaton's vacuum interruptersemploy a 'diffuse discharge'design which practicallyeliminates contact wear.Coupled with the proven solidinsulation technology Eatonemploys in the manufacture ofthe encapsulated pole unit, theW-VAC i range of vacuum circuit breakers is considered virtuallymaintenance free. Switchgear that uses SF 6 gas as an insulation medium has aninherent leakage rate. Tomaintain an adequate insulationlevel within this type ofswitchgear, the pressure of theSF 6 gas present in the switchgear tanks must bechecked and refilled on aregular basis during the unit'slifetime.  With UX the extra costsinvolved in checking and main -taining the required insulationlevel are not incurred. Thecombination of vacuum inter -rupters for switching, cast-resintechnology and clean air as theinsulation medium, is environ -mentally friendly and maintainsthe same quality level duringthe complete lifetime of UX. Bynot using SF 6 gas in UX, an owner is also not faced withthe admini stration costsinvolved in registering thenumber of kilograms of SF 6 gas in the installation. Minimal inspection

16 Standards UX complies with the following international standardsIEC 62271-1 Common specifications IEC 62271-100  Circuit breakers (E2, M2, C2) IEC 62271-102  Disconnectors and earthing switches (E2, M0) IEC 62271-200 Metal enclosed switchgear and controlgear IEC 60044-1 Current transformers IEC 60044-2 Voltage transformers IEC 60529  Degrees of protection (IP Code) IEC 61850 Communication networks and systems in substations IEC 61243-5 Live working - voltage detectors - Part 5: voltage detecting systems Flexibility in design  Every application of thistype of system is unique,so Eaton offers a widerange of different paneltypes and field versions.  If, in due course, additionalcapacity in the form of morepanels is required, UX caneasily be extended to the rightor left with only minimaldisruption to the supply forfinal connection of the busbars. Eaton realises that customersoften have their ownrequirements with respect tothe use of protection andcontrol components withinswitchgear, so the need forspecific components was takeninto account during productdevelopment and resulted in abasic primary design thatenables customers to integratesecondary protection andcontrol components accordingto their own specificationrequirements.  Range of voltagetransformers All UX panels can be fitted with cast-resin insulatedvoltage transformers, of therequested transformer ratioand class, for voltagemeasurement on the cableside, or on the busbar side.  The standard configuration isfor a fixed voltage transformerwith withdrawable fuses -although an option for truckmounted withdrawable voltagetransformers is also available. Range of currenttransformers In order to provide protectionand metering, the cast-resininsulated current transformersare housed in the fixed sectionnear the feeder cable terminals.All common transformer ratios,outputs, rated currents andclasses are possible. For highercurrent ratings above 2500 Acast-resin ring-type currenttransformers are used. It is also possible, as an option,to fit low voltages wire-woundcurrent transformers onto ascreened primary conductorinstead of the standard cast-resin block or ring typetransformers.  Smart Grids and substationautomation Equipment for remotecommunication betweenpanels or automation systemscan also be installed in the lowvoltage compartment, makingthe system the perfect solutionfor current and future SmartGrid applications.  Protection and controlequipment The protection and controlequipment is located in acompletely separate lowvoltage compartment with itsown access door. There isspace on the door for a mimicdiagram and for mountingequipment such as protectionrelays, voltage detectionsystems, meters, etc.  In case additional space isrequired, the low voltagecompartment can be extended.
