FAQ

 

Q: What is a box-type ring main unit? How is it different from a box-type substation?

A: The box-type RMU is a compact switchgear with switches, busbars and other components enclosed in a metal gas tank, mainly for ring power supply and terminal distribution. A box-type substation includes a transformer, LV switchgear and complete functions; the RMU usually serves as its HV switching part.

Q: What does "fully insulated and fully enclosed" mean?

A: All live parts and switches are sealed in a stainless steel tank filled with SF6, isolated from external air, dust and moisture, and not exposed to the air.

Q: What is the role of an RMU in a distribution network?

A: It receives and distributes power, acting as a sectionalizing or tie switch in ring circuits to facilitate fault isolation and power restoration.
