Introduction Way back in 1996, ABB introduced a simple, integrated and innovative 123 kV to 170 kV high voltage switchyard module, called COMPASS. COMPASS combines the benefits of an open-air connected substation with a very compact and smart design, allowing contractors and end-users to plan, build and maintain high voltage substations with minimum engineering, labour and civil construction costs. COMPASS is the right choice: - in the new greenfield substations, where the Life Cycle Cost of a switchyard is the critical factor, COMPASS is cost efficient, particularly where ground space is...

COMPASS-I Coming directly from the long exprience in this field, COMPASS-I is a new compact, multi-function, prefabricated device for substations in the COMPASS family equipped with: - A circuit-breaker with BLK actuator (both single and three phase operations) - A current transformer - Local control cabinet. The positions of these parts are shown in the diagram below. COMPASS-I is fully factory-assembled and tested and can be transported whole to the site for simple and reliable installation. Like COMPASS, this product can be fitted with both silicone or porcelain insulators. Thanks to its...

Transport, rection and maintenance The entire COMPASS Module Is lully designed, assembled and tested accordlng lo IEC Standards in the ABB Adda plant and can be transportod to the Installation srte on a simple truck or in a ccxitainer without having to be dismantled in any way. This limin驢tes the need to carry out any major electr Ical tests on site. A COMPASS switchyard is very simple, fast and mexpensive to erect. thanks to its design, which not only reduces the rection and commlssloning stages, but also allows a lot of space to be saved thanks to the MABLA selt-supporting busbar system....

Transport, rection and maintenance The module can be serviced and inspected easily by lowering the mobile part. This means lhat the bay can be checked or repaired on site. The lechnicians v/ork standing up. inside an earthed structure (Faraday cage) so safety and elficiency are ensured. If major maintenance is required, the mobile part ot the bay can easily be removed and taken to a workshop. The wtioie bay can be compietely replaced in approximately three hours. This saves time and cuts the consquent Inconvenance down to the minimum. One spare mobtie part of a bay ls therefore recommended...
