What is RMU
Switching and protection devices. 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.
Technical Overview RMU
RMU Application
RMU is Ring Main Unit , it is responsible to feed and distribute medium voltage in power
system network
Technical Overview RMU
RMU Application
Main advantages of RMU is that , ability to switch “ON/OFF” for both outgoing and
incoming.
So for example if there is a fault in Transformer or maintenance works , we can switch OFF
outgoing breaker to Transformer and confirm isolation by switch “ON“ Earth switch , and
keep another two “LBS” Load Break Switch in “ON” position , voltage supply will proceed to
another customer.
In another scenario , if there is a fault or maintenance works in power cable connected with
RMU , we can switch “OFF “LBS which connected with that power cable , and confirm
isolation by switch “ON“ Earth switching .in same time we can proceed with Transformer
feeding by other incoming source in RMU

RMU Component
LBS Load Break Switch
Responsible to switch “ON/OFF” voltage supply and load for power cables connected
with RMU , for transfer supply or for maintenance works.
T-Off Breaker
Responsible to arrange protection for transformer, also give transformer isolation facility
for maintenance works
Earth Switch
Responsible to confirm discharge of power cable after switch it “OFF” , then
maintenance works for it can start .
CT and VT sensors
EFI Earth Fault indicator
Protective Relay
