SIMOPRIME switchgears are fully type-tested to comply IEC standards as well as DIN and GOST standards.
SIMOPRIME medium-voltage switchgears from 17.5 to 24 kV offers the perfect combination of technology, reliability, quality, and service. The air-insulated switchgears can be ideally combined with SION vacuum circuit breakers and is type-tested for indoor installation in accordance with IEC 62271-200



Technical benefits
- Interlockings between high voltage door and switching devices
- Rack in, rack out operations of the circuit breaker truck with high voltage door closed
- Metallic, earthed shutters and partitions, partition class: PM (metallic partition)
- Use of metallic, earthed shutters and partitions between the compartments
- Highest loss of service continuity of the switchgear (LSC2B according to IEC 62271 200) during maintenance
- Internal arc tested design according to IEC 62271 200, 17.5 kV up to 40 kA, 1 s
