Product information

Gas-insulated medium-voltage switchgear for primary distribution

The Siemens 8DA and 8DB range of fixed circuit-breaker switchgear for indoor installation comprises several factory-assembled, type-tested, models of compact gas-insulated medium-voltage switchgear. All models are single-pole metal-enclosed  and equipped with metallic partitions to ensure reliable operation and a high degree of personal as well as operational safety. The Siemens 8DA10 gas-insulated switchgear model is suitable for single-busbar applications. The Siemens 8DB10 gas-insulated switchgear model suits to double-busbar applications, the 8DA11 and 8DA12 single and double pole design is for traction power supply systems.
