SF6 GIS
The SF6 gas insulated metal enclosed switchgear shall be totally safe against inadvertent
touch of any of its live constituent parts. It should be designed for indoor application with
meteorological conditions at site (winter 3°C to 14° C and summer 31° C to 46° C,
seismic zone: IV) .

General Technical Specification For 220kV SF6 Gas Insulated Metal Enclosed
Switchgear (on photo: ABB Gas-insulated switchgear for the Ras laffan power
plant, Qatar)
All parts of the switchgear should be three phase enclosed for 220kV GIS.
The design should be such that all parts subjected to wear and tear are easily
accessible for maintenance purposes. The equipment offered shall be protected
against all types of voltage surges and any equipment necessary to satisfy this
requirement shall be deemed to be included.
