Three-Phase Electronic Air Insulated Reclosers
VSA

Kyle^® VSA-group electronically controlled, three-phase, automatic circuit reclosers with vacuum interrupters, provide reliable and economical overcurrent protection for 15 kV distribution systems. VSA-group reclosers can be applied in a wide variety of protective schemes on distributions systems ranging from 2.4 through 14.4 kV.

VSA-group reclosers are available with ratings up to 1200 amps continuous and 20,000 amps interrupting current for line and substation applications. A choice of electronic recloser controls enables the user to meet a wide variety of application requirements.

Recloser operations are programmed on the electronic control panel with accurate, preset tripping characteristics and reclosing times, enabling close coordination with other protective devices on the system. When system requirements change, program settings are easily altered with no sacrifice of accuracy or consistency. Recloser and control accessories enable further tailoring of the protective program to achieve maximum system operating flexibility.

Fault-sensing information for VSA-group reclosers is supplied to the electronic control by bushing-type current transformers mounted in the recloser. Tripping and closing signals from the control energize operating circuits in the recloser.

Minimum-trip values of the control are independent of the continuous current and interrupting ratings of the recloser. Flexibility in coordination with other protective devices is provided by dual time-current characteristics available from a broad choice of time-current curves, a wide range of minimum-trip values, and a variety of programmable reclosing times.

Energy to operate the vacuum interrupters is provided by a motor-driven operator supplied from a 240 Vac source. The motor operator closes the recloser by charging the closing springs, which in turn provides the force to close the vacuum interrupters and charge the opening springs.
