43、ent. Special consideration is given to these enclosures for the following reasons. a) The enclosures usually form the containment of electrical equipment, thus their shape is determined by electrical rather than mechanical considerations. b) The enclosures are installed in restricted access areas an

44、d the equipment is operated by experts and instructed persons only. c) As the thorough drying of the inert, non-corrosive gas-filling medium is fundamental to the satisfactory operation of the electrical equipment it is periodically checked. For this reason, no internal corrosion allowance is requir

45、ed on the wall thickness of these enclosures. d) The enclosures are subjected to only small fluctuations of pressure as the gas-filling density shall be maintained within close limits to ensure satisfactory insulating and arc-quenching properties. Therefore, the enclosures are not liable to fatigue

46、due to pressure cycling. e) The operating pressure is relatively low. For the foregoing reasons, and to ensure the minimum disturbance hence reducing the risk of moisture and dust entering the enclosures which would prevent correct electrical operation of the switchgear, no pressure tests shall be c

47、arried out after installation and before placing in service and no periodic inspection of the enclosure interiors or pressure tests shall be carried out after the equipment is placed in service. 2 Scope and field of application 2.1 Type of equipment This standard applies to fusion welded wrought ste

48、el enclosures pressurized with dry air, inert gases, for example sulphur hexafluoride or nitrogen or a mixture of such gases, used in indoor or outdoor installationsof high-voltage switchgear and controlgear with rated voltages 72,5 kV and above, where the gas is used principally for its dielectric

49、and/or arc-quenching properties. The enclosures comprise parts of electrical equipment not necessarily limited to the following examples: Circuit-breakers Switch-disconnectors Disconnectors Earthing switches Current transformers Voltage transformers Surge arrestors Busbars and connections The scope also covers pressurized components such as the centre chamber of live tank switchgear, gas-insulated current transformers, etc. 2.2
