VISAX combines the advantages of
the most advanced withdrawableswitchgear and the benefitsassociated with simplifiedarchitecture: reliability, functionalsafety, security.
Original architecture
The circuit breaker engages directlywith the busbar, the number ofconnections and isolating elementsis significantly reduced.
Simple architectureThe innovative design of VISAX isbased on new metal-cladswitchgear architecture (fig.1)where all the functional elementsare mounted in a direct linebetween the busbar and the cableterminals.

The originality of VISAX :
an isolating circuit breakerThe circuit breaker is incorporatedin a rotary isolator, thus forming adual-purpose module : circuitbreaker and isolator.
This technical innovation has beenmade possible by the use of avacuum circuit breaker, the poles ofwhich are arranged longitudinally(the three poles of the operating
mechanism are aligned along asingle axis).
VISAX switchgear conceptInnovation through rotationThe isolation function between thebusbar and the cables is providedby 90 rotation of theisolator/circuit breaker (Fig. 5).
Disconnection is thus performed by
rotation of the circuit breaker.
Fig. 5 - Disconnection by rotation.
Description of the 3 positions
In the "service" position (Fig. 6a),the poles of the circuit breakerare in the vertical position. Oncethe circuit breaker has beenopened, the poles can rotate toreach the "disconnected"position. They therefore withdrawfrom the connection spouts toadopt a horizontal position(isolated position).During this rotation, a metal
shutter is automatically drawnacross and obstructs access to thebusbar.
Fig. 6a - Service position: circuit breaker
engaged (opening/closure).
Fig. 6c - Removed position (the handling
trolley is not shown ) : testing and checking
operations may be performed on the circuit
breaker.
The withdrawal of the circuitbreaker (Fig. 6c) is then possibleafter insertion of an isolating
screen between the multipurposebushing and the circuit breaker.

In the "disconnected" position
(Fig. 6b), the front face of thecubicle may be opened incomplete safety. Tests and checksmay then be carried out.

VISAX: user safety
The circuit breaker compartment after
withdrawal : no access to live sections.
(1)
VISAX metal-clad switchgearIn order to guarantee the safety ofthe operator during checkingoperations, the circuit breakercompartment on VISAX switchgearis fitted with an earthed metalshutter (1). When the circuit breakerrotates, this shutter is automaticallydrawn across to separate thebusbar and circuit breakercompartments.
When the circuit breaker is in theisolated position, access to theconnection spouts and the cableterminals is therefore protected: thedoor may be opened in completesafety.
Prior to withdrawal of the circuitbreaker, an isolating screen (2)must be inserted so as to prohibit
access to the multipurpose bushingsand thus provide the user with fullprotection.

Enhanced interlocks
and safety devicesApart from the conventionalinterlocks, a particularly reliablechain of interlocks has beendeveloped. These mechanicalinterlocks are simple, robust andare located, for the most part, onthe front of the unit.
For total reliability, the pre-assembled interlock plate has been
designed as an independent sub-assembly, requiring no adjustmentduring integration into the unit. Thereliability of the interlocks is thusenhanced for the greater safety ofthe personnel.
The optional motorisation ofisolation and earthing operations isfully integrated into the interlockingdevices. Therefore, in the event of
the loss of the auxiliary powersupply, the manual operations canbe performed without risk to theoperator, as the mechanicalinterlocks then take priority.
Safety in use
The original architecture of VISAX,combined with the presence of agas extraction duct, make itpossible to install the unit flush tothe wall.
In this way, all the steps involved inswitchgear operation are performedfrom the front of the unit forcomplete user safety.
A unit which allows true wall mounting.
... and space savingThe fact that the unit can be
mounted against a wall allowsspace saving in substations,making it possible to overcomecertain dimensional restrictions.

A single duct for the extraction of hot
gases.
Internal arc withstand
The rigid construction of the VISAXunit, incorporating exhaust flaps oneach compartment, ensures perfectinternal arc withstand.
Designed and tested according tothe latest standard, CEI 298Appendix AA, each compartmenthas an internal arc withstand whichconforms to criteria 1 to 6.
Enhanced personnel safety isoffered as manual operations areaffected with the doors closed.
The gases are channelled ina special compartmentAn advantage specific to VISAXarchitecture is to allow, thanks to asingle duct located at the rear of theunit, the collection and the
evacuation of the hot gases in theevent of internal arcing.
This duct, a standard component inVISAX units, is designed to collectthe gases from independent flaps,specific to each of the3 compartments: cables, circuitbreaker and busbar.
Should a problem arise in one of
the compartments, it does not affectthe others in any way.
Operator safetyIn this way, the hot gases areextracted at the back of the unit,towards the top, as far as possiblefrom the operator, for improvedsafety.
The safety conditions withinsubstations are thus enhanced. Thehot gases coming from these ductscan easily be collected from each
unit by a conduit (optional) andexpelled outside the substation.

Reliability of information and ease of operation
Operation from the front panel.
safety from the front face of the unit
by direct action on the operatingmechanism.
Actions on the circuit breaker(opening/closing) while it is at theservice position are performeddirectly via the push buttons locatedon the front door of the unit,whereas isolation of the circuitbreaker is performed by insertingthe isolating crank handle through
the door.
Operation from the front
panelThe original architecture of VISAXprovides the user with a newdimension in reliability and safety,both in terms of operation andreadings.
VISAX architecture allows allactions associated with the circuitbreaker/isolator and the earthingswitch to be carried out in complete
Status and positions clearly visible, without
intermediate or interface systems.
The position of the earthing switch is clearly
visible to the operator.
Certainty of positional
informationThe front-to-back layout of all theelements in the main circuit enablesthe operator to see directly the axesof both the circuit breaker and theearthing switch.
The operator is left in no doubt, ofthe "service" or "disconnected"
positions therefore benefiting frominherent reliability.

Self evident operation andindicationThe information essential tooperation of the switchgear is laidout ergonomically and grouped onthe front face, in areas clearlyidentified by specific bluecolouring. The operator thus hasaccess to the main information bysimply reading:
from the legend plate located on
the door of the circuitbreaker compartment (fig. 1),
from the band located on theright hand side of the cablecompartment (fig. 2).
The circuit breaker mimicdiagramThe single line drawing of the unitand the positions of the circuit
breaker are indicated by the mimicdiagram. The mimic diagramallows the operator to view, without
the slightest ambiguity, the status ofthe circuit breaker: open, closed,isolated, in operation.
Furthermore, the circuit breakerrating plate, the operation counterand the status of the spring of theoperating mechanism are clearlyvisible from outside the unit, withthe door closed.
The earthing switch mimic
diagramThe information on its statuscorrespond to reality without theslightest risk of error, as theposition indicator forms an integralpart of the axis of the earthingswitch.

The isolating circuit breaker
The BLV circuit breaker constitutesthe key element in VISAX units.
During isolation, the assemblycomprising the poles and theoperating mechanism rotates. Thecircuit breaker is a self-supportingmodule which only exerts minimalforces on the mounting points.Consequently, the variousoperations only require low energy
and the long-term reliability isfurther enhanced.
The elements making up theBLV circuit breakerThe circuit breaker is fitted with aspring-loaded mechanicaloperating mechanism (fig. 1)specially developed and optimisedfor the specific characteristics of thevacuum interrupters. Its designbased on a single shaft and spiralspring for both opening andclosing operations guaranteesexceptional reliability and safety.
The vacuum interrupters are locatedin single-pole enclosures (fig. 2).These enclosures, made of syntheticresin, provide not only the requiredlevel of insulation, but also thecomplete protection of theinterrupters from external damage.
The vacuum interrupters (fig. 3) usethe most advanced technology to
control the arc: the axial magneticfield. They are essentially made upof a sealed ceramic enclosurecontaining the highly pure coppercontacts. One of these contacts isfixed (A), the other moving (B) bymeans of a metal bellows (C). Ascreen (D), located around thecontact zone, collects the metalvapours created by the arc.
