Metal-Clad Switchgear
Metal-clad switchgear is a medium-voltage assembly in which major primary and control functions occupy separated metal compartments.
Product & engineering
Understand the product.
Metal-clad switchgear requires that the main switching and interrupting device be drawout. It may be either a circuit breaker (usual) or a load-break interrupter switch (unusual). Circuit breakers are always electrically operated. Extensive barriering, shutters over the primary circuit elements when the interrupter is withdrawn, and insulation-covered bus are all required.
Drawout breakers connect to fixed primary contacts when in the service position and withdraw for testing or maintenance under the designed interlocking arrangement. Shutters and mechanical controls manage access to the primary contact area; the complete arrangement is specific to the assembly.
Compartmentalized construction and arc-resistant performance are different properties. Arc-resistant configurations require their own tested arrangements, exhaust paths and installation conditions. A metal-clad label alone does not establish the same protection against an internal arcing event.
What turns activity into demand
Breaker removal space, operational interlocks and the available spare-device strategy shape the practical benefit. Metal-clad equipment is a defined subset of metal-enclosed switchgear. Standalone breakers and general enclosures should not be treated as equivalent complete assemblies.
The commercial boundary
