Product Description

 

The ZN28(A)-12 series high-voltage vacuum circuit breakers are designed for indoor power distribution systems with a rated voltage of 12 kV and a frequency of 50 Hz. This series comprises two models: the ZN28-12 (compact design) and the ZN28A-12 (split/suspended design). These circuit breakers can be installed in fixed-type high-voltage switchgear - such as the GG-1A(Z) or XGN2 models - or used to replace obsolete oil circuit breakers. Capable of controlling and protecting equipment such as transformers, motors, and capacitor banks, they are particularly well-suited for applications requiring frequent operation and are widely used in power plants, substations, industrial and mining enterprises, and building power distribution systems.

The ZN28(A)-12 series utilizes vacuum arc-extinguishing technology, offering advantages such as being oil-free, eliminating explosion risks, and providing high breaking capacity and long electrical service life. The ZN28 model features a compact design that integrates the switch body with the operating mechanism, whereas the ZN28A model employs a split design with the switch body and operating mechanism separated, allowing for flexible arrangement within the switchgear. The circuit breaker can be configured with either a CD17 electromagnetic operating mechanism or a CT17/CT19 spring operating mechanism to meet various interlocking requirements. High-strength ceramic insulators are used for insulation and structural support, ensuring stability, reliability, and effective air insulation performance; the mechanical structure is simple, facilitating on-site storage. All ZN28(A)-12 series products undergo factory testing in strict accordance with International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) standards. Jasco Electric offers a wide range of specifications and electrical solutions tailored to customer needs, providing comprehensive tender documentation, factory test reports, and manufacturing certificates to satisfy the requirements of domestic and international power transmission and distribution projects.
