The earthing switch is designed to earth a de-energized section of electrical circuit to ensure personnel safety during maintenance work.
Reliable design
The earthing switch has a simple design without complex electronics, ensuring high reliability and durability.
Safe earthing
The built-in mechanical interlock prevents earthing of live current-carrying parts, and helps to avoid incorrect operations and improve personnel safety.
Short-circuit withstand
The earthing switch has an increased making capacity and ensures resistance to high currents in case of accidental closing due to short-circuit current.
Easy maintenance
The simple design facilitates scheduled maintenance, reduces the servicing time and minimizes operating costs.
Long service life
A robust design and reliable contact system ensure stable operation of the earthing switch for a long period under traction substation conditions.
Compliance with international standards
The earthing switch is designed in accordance with the requirements of international and European standards:
EN 50123-1:2003/A1:2013
EN 50123-3:2003/A1:2013
IEC 61992-1
IEC 61992-3
DSTU EN 50124-1:2018 (EN 50124-1:2017, IDT).
The earthing switch electromagnetic interlock prevents incorrect switching operations by personnel and helps to avoid fault conditions that could damage the electrical equipment.
The electromagnet rod is connected to a lever that blocks the drive shaft and prevents it from rotating.
The earthing switch is switched from one position to another manually by means of the operating handle.
