Nowadays Ring Main units are widely used in Metro cities and smart cities for providing reliable supply to the consumers. It is essential for Electrical Engineers to know the working of Ring Main Networks and Ring Main Units. A Ring Main Network is formed by connecting feeders in a fashion to form a loop, and is fed at one or several points.
Ring Main Unit comprises of one incomer feeder and one or more outgoing feeder. The incomer feeder is either Vacuum Circuit Breaker or SF6 Circuit Breaker with associated Disconnect Switch and Earth Switch. This incomer feeder is given with the provision of bushing protruding from the enclosure of RMU for supply cable connection.
In an electrical power distribution system, a ring main unit (RMU) is a factory assembled, metal enclosed set of switchgear used at the load connection points of a ring-type distribution network.
It is essential for Electrical Engineers to know the working of Ring Main Networks and Ring Main Units. A Ring Main Network is formed by connecting feeders in a fashion to form a loop, and is fed at one or several points. Objective of Ring Main Distribution Network:
The Ring Main Unit itself must comply with the requirements of AS 62271.200 Annex A.2, Accessibility Type AFL. Operators of the Equipment must be protected against the effects of an arcing fault in any of the MV compartment at all times, including while carrying out maintenance work on other compartments.
A simplified schematic diagram of RMU is shown in figure below. The incomer as well as outgoing feeders are enclosed in an SF6 environment as to make the design compact. Compatible instrument for monitoring of SF6 gas pressure is mounted on the Ring Main Unit, RMU to monitor the gas pressure.
