480V Metal-Enclosed Switchgear

Weights and Dimensions

Dimensions

Siemens 480 volt switchgear can be configured in many ways by combining different section types. Up to five vertical sections plus a transition section can be shipped together as a unit. If all vertical sections are not to be shipped as a unit, specifications need to be provided that describe the limiting factors (e.g., low door or narrow hallway).

Normal indoor vertical sections are 101 in. (2565 mm) high and 60 in. (1524 mm) deep. A top-mounted hoist, which is shipped as an accessory in a separate container, adds 2 in. (51 mm) for a total installed height of 103 in. (2616 mm).

The outdoor switchgear assembly contains the indoor assembly in an out- door housing. The overall height is 113 in. (2870 mm) and the depth is 119.40 in. (3033 mm).

The major assembly sections include:

JTransition Sections — used as transi- tion to liquid filled transformer or to outdoor dry type transformers.

JAuxiliary Sections — used as incom- ing bus duct or cable entrance when a main breaker is not used.

JMain Sections — used to contain main breaker and may house metering and feeder breakers.

JFeeder Sections — used to contain feeder breakers and other equipment such as instrumentation.

JTie Sections — used to contain tie breaker and other equipment such as feeder breakers.
