German term

Abgangsleistungsschalter

German to English Tech/Engineering Electronics / Elect Eng
Hi everyone,

I am having trouble deciphering exactly what is meant with this term. It is found in the following context (meant for a US audience):

"Sicheres Nachrüsten und Austausch von Abgangsleistungsschaltern ohne Stromabschaltung durch Steckeinsatztechnik."

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks

output (circuit) breaker

A 'Leistungsschalter' is usually referred to as a '(circuit) breaker', and I suspect that 'Abgang' is equivalent to 'output' here. Does this fit your other context? What device/system/unit does your text refer to?

See, for example,

http://www.ehow.com/how_7769774_size-generator-output-circui...

http://www.facilitiesnet.com/powercommunication/article/Unde...
"The first line of defense against breaker nuisance is to make sure breakers are sized correctly. This can be particularly challenging for UPS rectifier/charger breakers. Understand that unlike bypass and output breakers, UPS normal input breakers need to be sized to carry full load plus UPS efficiency losses plus battery recharge current. Any time you see a UPS normal input breaker sized the same as the bypass or output breaker, a red flag should be raised.
Note from asker:
I believe that fits the context perfectly. The text refers to 136 distribution panels for a switchboard system. http://www.schneider-electric.co.uk/en/product-range/2199-prisma-plus-p/

Thank you :-) I'd agree with 'outgoing' instead of 'output', though.
agree Johannes Gleim : both terms, outgoing and output are used. But I would prefer "outgoing" as it refers to the substation configuration, while "output" reminds me production of electricity.

Outgoing circuit breaker
Selectivity (discrimination) exists between incoming breaker 1 and outgoing breaker 2 if, only outgoing breaker 2 trips at position 2 during a short-circuit.

For a circuit breaker declared suited to isolation, a third test is carried out between the incoming and the outgoing terminals with the contacts open and with a higher impulse voltage (see fig. 12 ). … Thus for a device considered suited to isolation and for which Uimp = 8 kV, the value of the impulse voltage applied across open contacts at sea level between the incoming and outgoing terminals will be 12.3 kV instead of 9.8 kV.

Last, but not least, the IEEE:

The major disadvantage of this approach is that the protection on the outgoing cable circuits from primary 33/11 kV substations may not detect certain transformer or busbar faults on the low-voltage fuse gear.

The authors have considered a typical radial distribution substation which is being fed by a single high tension feeder and have shown that individual circuit breakers associated with different outgoing distributors can be totally dispensed with by the use of two suitably placed autoreclosing circuit breakers.

Overcurrent and earth fault protection by means of inverse definite minimum time lag (IDMTL) relay tripping has been a standard solution for many years. In this case study the author examines the application of IDMTL relays for the tripping of LV main incoming circuit breakers as applied to installations in Hong Kong. The requirements imposed by the local supply companies and the consequent difficulties in achieving discrimination between the MICB protection and that on outgoing circuits are discussed.<>
