    Always follow the instructions in the manual and with all the relevant IEC safety regulations and those respect the rules of good engineering practice of other technical authorities, also respecting other (GEP)! Hazardous voltages can cause serious injury overriding instructions. It is recommended that ABB or death! Disconnect the power and earth live service personnel be called in to perform the parts before proceeding with any work on the servicing and repair work.
  • Page 3: General Aspects

    D I S T R I B U T I O N S O LU T I O N S — Introduction General aspects UniSec is an air-insulated switchgear for indoor use, designed for medium voltage secondary distribution. UniSec switchgear is the result of continuous innovation, following the desire to meet ever-changing market needs. This new series of switchgear offers a wide range of long-term technical solutions. Safety, reliability, user-friendliness and simplicity of installation, as well environmental sustainability were the driving forces in developing this switchgear. UniSec is structured by placing standardized units side by side in a coordinated way. Construction and testing are carried out in the factory. Installation manual This manual provides information on installation of UniSec units. It contains details about product dimensions and weights, as well as instructions for...
