| Objectives | A device for temporarily bypassing a smart fuse will be developed. This device will be able to be placed on a sectionaliser to provide a temporary conductor, allowing the smart link to be removed for maintenance or repair without breaking the supply to the customer. This will be able to be applied with the same equipment as used to apply and remove the smart links.This device will consist of a conductor surrounded by a spring, housed in a rigid, telescopic, insulated container. Each end will have connectors to allow it to be hooked onto a sectionaliser using standard short or long stick equipment. Twenty-four devices will be produced and tested in SPD and SPM districts within this project. The outcome of this project will be a device to allow the online maintenance and replacement of smart links on the 11kV network. | |
