2 Siemens 8DN8 switchgear for up to 170 kv is characterized by modular design and excellent flexibility. Siemens 8DN9 GIS for 245 kv combines the advantages of single-phase and three-phase encapsulation. Outstandingly compact, Siemens 8DQ1 GIS handles 420 kv at 63 ka with a single interrupter unit. Long-standing excellence that delivers results The energy system is undergoing fundamental change for various reasons. The situation calls for efficient and reliable solutions that help save costs and at the same time tackle the new challenges that the process of change poses. Siemens has long anticipated these changes. As early as 1968 the company introduced a solution that helps deal with the increasing shortage of space in urban areas and the need for power transmission at higher voltage levels right into city centers: gas-insulated switchgear (GIS). The GIS concept soon turned out highly successful, and immediately set new standards in terms of performance and reliability. Ever since, Siemens GIS have played a central role in supplying power safely, worldwide. Today, Siemens has installed more than 28,000 indoor and outdoor switch bays worldwide, and well over 300,000 bayyears of operation have been recorded. Siemens supplies GIS for rated voltages from 72.5 kv up to 800 kv. The comprehensive product range, comprising the 8DN8, 8DN9, 8DQ1, and 8DR1 types of switchgear, holds ideal solutions for all indoor and outdoor switching applications up to the highest performance rates. All Siemens GIS meet the highest requirements in terms of efficiency, safety, and reliability. They have been designed for outstanding compactness and flexibility to meet today s challenging demands. 2

3 Siemens 8DQ1 switchgear for up to 550 kv provides superior performance for demanding transmission applications. An economical solution throughout Siemens GIS have been designed with economic efficiency in mind. This pays off during the entire life cycle of the switchgear and ensures a number of benefits. All switchgear arrangements can be assem bled from a relatively small number of well-conceived high-quality modules. This makes it possible to meet all individual requirements while ensuring userfriendliness and easy operation. Moreover, Siemens GIS are outstandingly compact. Take the 8DN8 switchgear for voltages up to 145 kv, for example: it is one of the world s most compact GIS and features a bay width of only 0.8 meters and a control cubicle that is integrated in the bay. The com pact bay design lowers more than space requirements: along with the switchgears aluminum enclosures, it saves weight, reducing load on foundations and building floors, and, consequently, associated investments costs. During operation, Siemens GIS are practically maintenance-free. They are built for an estimated service life of more than 50 years. No wonder, then, that the world s first Siemens GIS bays, which were installed in Berlin in 1968, are still in operation. All new Siemens GIS types come with non-corrosive en closures and self-lubricating motor drives that ensure a long service life. The main contacts of circuit breakers, disconnectors, and grounding switches are designed for long service life with minimal maintenance. The first major inspection is recommended to take place after 25 years. Your benefits: Proven switchgear solution from one of the world s leading suppliers with outstanding experience Outstanding flexibility in switchgear arrangement Little space requirement Easy, efficient, and reliable operation Low life cycle costs Virtually maintenance-free operation for an expected lifetime of more than 50 years. 3

5 Siemens high-voltage switchgear systems perform reliably in extreme environmental conditions. A common design principle of all Siemens GIS is that compactness must not compromise accessibility. Siemens GIS are ideally suited for use in urban areas. Proven reliability that ensures maximum safety Every switchgear in the Siemens 8D type range has been thoroughly optimized for easy operation, accessibility, safety, and dependability. This ensures that Siemens GIS can always be operated efficiently and reliably. The functional principle of the switchgear has been carefully designed and tested, and it has stood the test of time during decades of field operation. Environmental performance The external and internal electromagnetic compatibility of Siemens switchgear prevents interference voltages and overvoltages. The gastightness of Siemens GIS with its seamless metallic enclosures exceeds the already stringent standards and has been verified by vigorous typetesting: the sealing system limits gas leakage to less than 0.1 percent per gas compartment per year. Siemens has developed outstanding expertise in the handling of SF6 gas and can ensure that no gas is released during production, maintenance, and recycling. Moreover, the development of increasingly compact switchgear entails a constant reduction of the required amount of gas. Operational safety Siemens GIS exceed the relevant IEC safety standards thanks to extraordinarily high mechanical stability, high resistance to arcing, and outstanding gas safety features. This means that Siemens GIS ensure the highest possible degree of personal safety and can even be installed in commercial and residential buildings. Your benefits: Proven functional principle Outstanding EMC and environmental performance Seamless metallic enclosure Unparalleled gastightness High degree of operational safety Safety for operating personnel due to high safety standards of the switchgear. 5
