EPD: Medium voltage tripolar circuit breaker, including packaging, 12 -17.5 kV, 630/1250 A, 16-31.5 kA, 107 kg/unit, VD4 p. 27 5 with PT1 pole (ABB Group, Dalmine plant)

The VD4 is a medium voltage tripolar circuit breaker. It is an automatically operated electrical device that is used to control and protect an electrical circuit from damage caused by overload or short circuit. It can be equipped with three embedded poles (PT1), that are used to provide dielectric strength and protection of the vacuum interrupter (VG4-S or VGE4).
