High-Voltage switchgear and controlgear - Insulating pressurised partitions for gas filled metal enclosures
This document applies to pressurized partitions used in indoor and outdoor installations of high-voltage AC and DC switchgear and controlgear with rated voltages (Ur) above 1 kV AC / 1,5 kV DC and with design pressure higher than 300 kPa, where the gas is used principally for its dielectric and/or arc-quenching properties. The partitions comprise pressurized barriers in electrical equipment not necessarily limited to the following examples: - circuit-breakers; - switch-disconnectors; - disconnectors; - earthing switches; - current transformers; - voltage transformers; - surge arresters; - busbars and connections; - cable connections/terminations; - cable bushings. Partitions which are only pressurized from one side are also covered. 1 kV AC / 1,5 kV DC means it is valid for the apparatus applied and where the partitions are installed; however, the application of voltages below 1 kV AC / 1,5 kV DC as in, for example, current and voltage transformers are not excluded. This document does not apply to high voltage bushings (see EN 60137, EN 61462 and EN 62155).

Appareillage à haute tension - Cloisons isolées sous pression pour enveloppes métalliques sous pression de gaz
Le présent document s'applique aux cloisons sous pression utilisées dans les installations intérieures et extérieures d'appareillages à haute tension en courant alternatif et en courant continu, de tensions assignées (Ur) supérieures à 1 kV en courant alternatif/1,5 kV en courant continu et de pression de calcul supérieure à 300 kPa, où le gaz est principalement utilisé pour ses propriétés diélectriques et/ou d'extinction des arcs. Les cloisons sont équipées de barrières sous pression dans des équipements électriques, notamment: - disjoncteurs; - interrupteurs-sectionneurs; - sectionneurs; - sectionneur de terre; - transformateurs de courant; - transformateurs de tension; - parafoudres; - jeux de barres et raccordements; - raccordements/extrémités de câbles; - traversées de câbles. Les cloisons qui ne sont sous pression que d'un côté sont également couvertes. L'indication 1 kV en courant alternatif/1,5 kV en courant continu signifie que la valeur est valable pour l'appareil utilisé. Toutefois, lorsque les cloisons sont installées, l'application de tensions inférieures à 1 kV en courant alternatif/1,5 kV en courant continu, par exemple dans les transformateurs de courant et de tension, n'est pas exclue. Le présent document ne s'applique pas aux traversées haute tension (voir l'EN 60137, l'EN 61462 et l'EN 62155).
Visokonapetostne stikalne in krmilne naprave - Tlačno izolirane predelne stene za kovinska ohišja, napolnjena s plinom
Ta dokument se uporablja za tlačne predelne stene, ki se uporabljajo v notranjih in zunanjih namestitvah visokonapetostnih stikalnih oziroma krmilnih naprav z izmeničnim in enosmernim tokom ter nazivno napetostjo (Ur), večjo od 1 kV AC/1,5 kV DC, in konstrukcijskim tlakom, večjim od 300 kPa, pri čemer se plin uporablja predvsem zaradi njegovih dielektričnih lastnosti in/ali lastnosti gašenja obloka.
Plini z izolacijskimi lastnostmi so suh zrak, inertni plini (npr. žveplov heksafluorid ali dušik) ali mešanica tovrstnih plinov.
Predelne stene zajemajo tlačne pregrade v električni opremi, ki niso nujno omejene na naslednje primere:
– odklopniki;
– stikala/ločilna stikala;
– ločilniki;
– ozemljitvena stikala;
– tokovni transformatorji;
– napetostni transformatorji;
– prenapetostni odvodniki;
– zbiralke in priključki;
– kabelske povezave/priključki;
– kabelske uvodnice;
– itd.
Zajete so tudi predelne stene, ki so pod tlakom samo z ene strani.
Oznaka 1 kV AC/1,5 kV DC pomeni, da je veljavno za napravo, ki se uporablja, in mesta nameščenih predelnih sten; vendar uporaba napetosti, nižjih od 1 kV AC/1,5 kV DC (kot npr. v tokovnem in napetostnem transformatorju) ni izključena.
Ta dokument se ne uporablja za visokonapetostne kabelske uvodnice (glej standarde EN 60137, EN 61462 in EN 62155).

Introduction
This document has been revised by CENELEC Technical Committee 17AC “High-voltage switchgear and
controlgear”. It supplements the relevant product standards on gas-insulated switchgear and controlgear
providing specific requirements for partitions based on insulating material being part of pressurized high-voltage
switchgear and controlgear.
In this respect, this document, together with other EN and IEC documents, constitutes the exclusion of HV
switchgear from the scope of the Directive 2014/68/EU (superseding 97/23/EC) concerning pressure equipment.
Article 1, 2. (l) excludes “enclosures for high-voltage electrical equipment such as switchgear, controlgear,
transformers, and rotating machines” from the scope of the Directive.
This document covers the requirements for the design, construction, testing, inspection and certification of
partitions based on insulating material for gas-filled enclosures for use specifically in high-voltage switchgear
and controlgear, or for associated gas-filled equipment.
Special consideration is given to these partitions for the following reasons.
a) For electrical reasons the partitions need to be manufactured from an insulating material.
b) The partitions usually form the containment of electrical equipment, thus their shape is determined by
electrical rather than mechanical requirements. The mechanical requirements should be met in any case.
c) The enclosures in which the partitions are integrated are installed in restricted access areas and the
equipment is operated by instructed, authorized persons only.
d) The insulating material is generally qualified against decomposition products of SF6 and other insulating
gases. The thorough drying of gas-filling medium is fundamental for the satisfactory operation of the
electrical equipment. The gas is periodically checked. For this reason, no corrosion allowance is required
on the wall thickness of these partitions.
e) The enclosures are subjected to only small (in the relation to design pressure) fluctuations of pressure as
the gas-filling density will be maintained within close limits to ensure satisfactory insulating and arc-
quenching properties. Therefore, the partitions are not liable to fatigue due to pressure cycling.
Due to the foregoing reasons and to ensure maximum service continuity as well as to reduce the risk of moisture
and dust entering the enclosures which could endanger safe electrical operation of the switchgear, no pressure
tests should be carried out after installation and before placing in service and no periodic inspection of the
enclosure interiors or pressure tests should be carried out after the equipment is placed in service.
This document should be a base for a mutual agreement between a manufacturer of electrical equipment and
producer of partitions but not limited to it. Additional delivery and test instructions may be agreed between the
parties if necessary.
1 Scope
This document applies to pressurized partitions used in indoor and outdoor installations of high-voltage AC and
DC switchgear and controlgear with rated voltages (Ur) above 1 kV AC / 1,5 kV DC and with design pressure
higher than 300 kPa, where the gas is used principally for its dielectric and/or arc-quenching properties.
The partitions comprise pressurized barriers in electrical equipment not necessarily limited to the following
examples:
— circuit-breakers;
— switch-disconnectors;
— disconnectors;
— earthing switches;
— current transformers;
— voltage transformers;
— surge arresters;
— busbars and connections;
— cable connections/terminations;
— cable bushings.
Partitions which are only pressurized from one side are also covered.
1 kV AC / 1,5 kV DC means it is valid for the apparatus applied and where the partitions are installed; however,
the application of voltages below 1 kV AC / 1,5 kV DC as in, for example, current and voltage transformers are
not excluded.
This document does not apply to high voltage bushings (see EN 60137, EN 61462 and EN 62155).
