GCS Drawer-type Switchgear: A Cutting-Edge Solution for Power Distribution

Product Description

The GCS Drawer Type Switch Cabinet is a state-of-the-art electrical solution designed in collaboration with industry regulators, power users, and design entities to meet the specific demands of the national market. It boasts advanced technical performance metrics that cater to the dynamic needs of the electric power market. After a stringent evaluation in July 1996 in Shanghai, this switchgear has earned significant recognition from manufacturing entities and power utilization sectors. Endorsed by the Ministry of Electric Power and the Ministry of Mechanical Industry through joint directives (AnShengYong (1997) No. 01 and JiZhong (1997) No. 01), the GCS switchgear is now widely used across various industries for power distribution systems. It is especially suitable for large-scale power plants, communication hubs, and modern enterprises with high automation levels that require computer control, operating within three-phase AC systems with a frequency of 50(60)Hz, a rated working voltage of 380V(660V), and a rated current of 4000A or less, for power distribution, centralized motor control, and reactive power compensation.

Application Fields

The GCS Low-Voltage Withdrawable Drawer Switchgear is extensively applied in outdoor settings such as 6-10kV ring networks and end-user facilities, including:

• Industrial parks
• Residential communities
• Commercial hubs
• Parks
• Stations
• Airports
• Ports
• Oil fields
• Temporary facilities

Technical Features

• Enhanced Thermal Capacity: Reduces additional temperature rise in connectors, cable heads, and partition plates due to the thermal rise of transfer components.
• Clear Functional Separation: Ensures that a malfunction in one unit does not affect the operation of others, minimizing the scope of any fault.
• Superior Thermal Stability: Withstands short-circuit currents up to 80/176kA, providing excellent thermal stability.
• High Circuit Capacity: The MCC cabinet can accommodate up to 22 circuits per cabinet, meeting the needs of large single-unit capacity power plants and automated electric gate (machine) groups in the petrochemical industry.
• Ample Secondary Connectors: The drawer unit is equipped with 32 pairs for units of 1 and above, and 20 pairs for 1/2 units, satisfying the interface point requirements for computer interfaces and automatic control circuits.

Product Advantages

1. Superior Thermal Stability: Ensures reliable operation under varying thermal conditions.
2. Clear and Distinct Separation of Functional Areas: Enhances safety by preventing faults from affecting multiple units.
