Pole-mounted SF6 LBS
Pole-Mounted SF6 Load Break Switch (IACT)
The main product is an outdoor SF6 insulated load break switch for overhead feeder load switching, sectionalizing, loop points and transformer circuit control. Add the LBS controller only when the project needs sensing, local operation, event records or SCADA communication.
12 / 24 / 36 kVLRFW source tables separate the visible switch-body voltage classes.

Optional controllerThe LBS cabinet is an automation layer, not the primary switch body.
Specification
SF6 Load Break Switch Ratings Before Controller Selection.
LRFW source data defines the visible 12 / 24 / 36 kV switch-body table. Confirm the selected series before nameplate or drawing release because PGS/RPS files describe a separate family with different current, short-time, IP and standard references.

Shared values
These shared values are LRFW source values, not a merged PGS/RPS table: 5000 mechanical operations, 400 rated full-load operations, IP65 protection level, SF6 gas as both arc-extinction and insulation medium, and SF6 gas yearly leak rate <=0.5%. Service conditions include altitude <=3000 m, -40 deg C to +50 deg C air temperature, maximum wind speed <=34 m/s and pollution grade III / IV. The separate RPS/PGS catalog family lists IEC 62271-103, 400 / 630 / 800 / 1250 A, 20 kA / 4 s, IP67 and suspended or horizontal mounting, so do not merge those values into this LRFW table.
Structure
Switch Body, Controller Package and RFQ Boundary.
The buyer selects the outdoor SF6 LBS body first. Controller cabinet, motor wiring and communication interface are added after body rating, mounting method and sensing plan are fixed.
What the switch body includes.
The LRFW structure sheet identifies the outdoor switch body as the high-voltage equipment: lift handle, carrying handle, rubber bushing, manual operation handle, contact position indicator, support frame, grounding device, locking device, gas pressure relief, electric mechanism, SF6 pressure gauge and filling valve.
Switch bodySF6 insulated tank, bushings, line terminals, operating mechanism, pressure gauge and open/close indication.
Mounting relationshipSingle-pole drawings show anchor ears, assembly frame, lift handle, hole, nameplate and controller box position.
Optional controllerLBS cabinet for phase and ground current sensing, three-phase voltage sensing, alarms, local operation and SCADA connection.
RFQ boundaryQuote the switch body first. Add controller, CT/VT sensing, motor wiring and communication only when the project needs them.
Controls
LBS Controller Functions for Sensing, Operation and SCADA.
The LBS controller supports sensing, motorized operation, alarms, records and communication after the switch body is selected. It does not make this device an automatic vacuum circuit recloser for fault-current interruption.
Current and voltage sensing
The controller provides phase and ground current sensing, three-phase voltage sensing, and can compute power, energy, power factor and power flow direction.
Front panel and software setup
Settings can be programmed from the front panel, PC configuration software or web browser through temporary Ethernet or USB access.
SCADA and device interface
The manual references RS-232, Ethernet and RS-485 ports for SCADA or interconnection to other devices.
Event and analysis tools
The controller tools include event recording, data profiler, application one-line diagram, oscillography and time-current curve functions.
Switch body plus controller package
Package scope: switch body, controller cabinet, cable accessories and motorized operation.
Controller cabinet body
Select the cabinet after the switch rating, mounting method, sensor requirement, motor wiring and communication interface are fixed.
Applications
Feeder Switching Path and Optional Controller Signals.
The topology separates the main feeder load-current path from optional sensing, command and communication paths.
Principle topology at the SF6 load switch pointPower path + optional controller
Power path: feeder source to SF6 LBS body, then to feeder sectionalizing, loop/tie or transformer circuit endpoints.
Sensing path: phase current, source-side voltage, load-side voltage and switch position feed the controller.
Optional control path: open/close command, front panel, PC setup, Ethernet, USB, RS-232 or RS-485 to SCADA / DA.

FAQ
SF6 Load Break Switch Selection FAQ.
What is a pole-mounted SF6 load break switch?
It is an outdoor SF6 insulated load break switch installed on overhead distribution feeders for load current switching, line sectionalizing, loop points and transformer circuit control. The LBS controller is an optional automation package for sensing, alarms, local operation and SCADA communication.
Is it the same as an automatic vacuum circuit recloser?
No. The SF6 LBS is for load current switching and sectionalizing. If the project needs fault-current interruption with automatic reclosing protection, compare the Automatic Vacuum Circuit Recloser.
Which ratings should be confirmed first?
Confirm the selected switch series first, then voltage class, rated current, short-time withstand or breaking requirement, terminal or cable outlet style, operating method, service environment and mounting condition.
Which standards are shown in the source files?
The RPS/PGS catalog references IEC 62271-103. One supplied LRFW sheet references IEC 62271-200. Treat these as source-file notes until the selected model and purchaser standard are confirmed.
What controller interfaces are available?
The controller manual references front-panel operation, PC software and web programming, Ethernet and USB access, plus RS-232, Ethernet and RS-485 ports for SCADA or device interconnection.
What should be sent for quotation?
Send system voltage, rated current, feeder role, short-circuit level, terminal or cable outlet style, mounting method, manual or electric operation, CT/VT sensing, controller or SCADA needs, destination standard, quantity and site drawings or photos.
