Product Overview
The JN22B-40.5/31.5 indoor HV earthing switch complies with national standard GB1985-2004 and IEC 62271-102:2002; it is used in three-phase 50 Hz power systems with a rated voltage of 40.5 kV and can be combined with KYN61-40.5 and other high-voltage switchgear cubicles for earthing protection during maintenance of high-voltage equipment. It is an improved version of the original earthing switch, with a simple, compact structure, consistent performance and easy small-angle operation, and can use the connecting and transmission parts of the JN15-12.
