1 14 SWITCHGEAR Secondary Unit Substations Overview Siemens offers a wide variety of unit substation designs to meet customer requirements. A unit substation consists of one or more transformers mechanically and electrically connected to and coordinated in design with one or more switchgear or switchboard assemblies. A secondary unit substation is defined as a unit substation whose outgoing section is rated below 1000 volts. A typical secondary unit substation consists of three sections: n Primary: an incoming section that accepts incoming high voltage (2400 to 13,800 volts) line n Transformer: section that transforms incoming voltage down to utilization voltage (600 volts or less) n Secondary: an outgoing section that distributes power to outgoing feeders and provides protection for these feeders (600 volts and less) Standard secondary unit substations consist of: n Medium Voltage Primary n Transformer n Low Voltage Secondary Siemens also offers low voltage unit substations with: n Low Voltage Primary n Transformer n Low Voltage Secondary The primary reason for using a secondary unit substation is to bring power as close as possible to the center of the loads. Another reason is that it provides a system design concept incorporating a wide variety of components that permits tailoring equipment to the needs of the application. A secondary unit substation provides n Reduced power losses n Better voltage regulation n Improved service continuity n Increased functional flexibility n Lower installation cost n Efficient space utilization Every component and assembly of secondary unit substations are designed and engineered as an integral part of a complete system.

4 Overview Siemens offers a wide variety of unit substation designs to meet virtually any customer requirement. A unit substation consists of one or more transformers mechanically and electrically connected to, and coordinated with, one or more switchgear or switchboard assemblies. A secondary unit substation is defined as a unit substation whose outgoing section is rated below 1,000 volts. A typical secondary unit substation consists of three sections: n Primary: depending on the specific application, this section accepts medium voltage (2,400 to 27,600 volts) incoming power n Transformer: reduces incoming voltage to utilization voltage (600 volts or less) n Secondary: distributes power to, and provides protection for, outgoing feeders (600 volts and less). SIMOSEC Primary Switch Dry-Type Transformer Type SB3 Switchboard 14 SWITCHGEAR The key benefit of a secondary unit substation is that it economically brings power as close as possible to the loads, minimizing power loss and maximizing voltage regulation. It also enhances flexibility, using a system design concept that integrates a wide variety of components to tailor the equipment to the specific needs of each application. Every component or assembly utilized in secondary unit substations is engineered to be an integral part of a complete system. A secondary unit substation helps you: n Reduce power losses n Enhance voltage regulation n Improve service continuity n Increase functional flexibility n Lower installation costs n Minimize space utilization.

8 Type WL Low Voltage Switchgear Substation Secondaries Siemens type WL low-voltage, metalenclosed switchgear is designed, constructed and tested to provide superior power distribution, power monitoring and control. At the heart of the type WL low voltage switchgear is the world class Siemens type WL breaker. Siemens type WL low-voltage switchgear can be utilized in the following applications: n Industrial n Institutional n Critical power n Utility and co-generation n Commercial. Product Scope n Equipment ratings: 635 Vac maximum Three-phase, three-wire Three-phase, four-wire 50/60 Hz 6,000 A maximum horizontal bus 5,000 A maximum vertical bus. n Enclosure options: NEMA 1 indoor NEMA 3R outdoor walk-in NEMA 3R outdoor non walk-in. 14 SWITCHGEAR Exclusive features Generator/utility protection sets 24/7/365 power availability is critical for some systems. On-site generation capabilities are becoming more and more common. Type WL digital electronic trip units allow the system designer to precisely tailor trip settings for the most demanding requirements. The Siemens type WL 776 trip unit allows one set of trip settings for a fully loaded utility feed and, with a simple contact closure, the trip unit toggles to a second trip set tailored to provide optimal generator protection. The wide range of settings allows the type WL to provide protection for a minimal generator capacity for only essential loads, through full backup for an entire facility. This dual utility/generator protection capability in a single circuit breaker allows the system designer unparalleled, cost effective flexibility. For more information, visit our web site at: Extended instantaneous protection (EIP) This patent pending type WL trip unit feature allows the system designer to achieve full selective trip coordination up to the short-time rating of the frame, while also allowing application of the circuit breaker up to the interrupting rating of the frame. EIP allows the type WL breaker to be applied up to the full withstand rating of the circuit breaker, for complete coordination, with a minus 0% short-time band tolerance up to 85 ka on Frame Size II and 100 ka on Frame Size III. Above fault currents of 20-percent higher than the full short-time rating, the type WL circuit breaker is self-protecting, and the EIP function will trip the circuit breaker instantly to protect the frame and the system from these extremely high currents (as high as 150 ka on Frame Size III). An added benefit is that arc flash energy is greatly reduced in this high- current region due to EIP s instantaneous trip response. Industry standards Type WL switchgear with power circuit breakers are designed, tested and constructed in accordance with: n UL 1558 Metal-Enclosed Low- Voltage Power Circuit Breaker Switchgear n ANSI C Metal-Enclosed Low- Voltage Power Circuit Breaker Switchgear. Type WL drawout circuit breakers are designed for continuous operation at 100-percent of their current rating without the need for external heat sinks, and are in accordance with: n UL 1066 Low-Voltage AC and DC Power Circuit Breakers Used in Enclosures n ANSI C37.13 Low-Voltage AC Power Circuit Breakers Used in Enclosures.
