MNS General

MNS systems are suitable for applications in all fields concerning the generation,
distribution and use of electrical energy, e. g., they can be used as:
Main and sub-distribution boards for energy and
Motor current supply of Motor Control Centres
• in utility companies
• in power plants
• in oil refineries
• on off-shore drilling platforms
• on ships
• in production facilities
• in sewage management
• in buildings for other than dwelling purposes.
System features
The Modular Low-Voltage Switchgear System has proven its worth for many years
worldwide. At the same time, it constitutes a safe investment for the future due to its
continuous further development. The high flexibility of the MNS system results from
a framework construction with maintenance-free bolted connections which can be
equipped as required with standardized components and can be perfectly adapted
to each application. The consistent application of the modular principle both in
electrical and mechanical design permits optional selection of the structural design,
interior arrangement and degree of protection according to the operating and
environmental conditions.
The design and material used for the MNS system largely prevent the occurrence of
electric arcs, or provide for arc quenching within a short time. The MNS-System
complies with the requirements laid down in IEC 1641, and was furthermore
subjected to extensive accidental arc tests by an independent institute. Type test
certificates are available.
The MNS system offers the user many alternative solutions and notable advantages
in comparison with conventional-type installations:

• Compact, space-saving design

• Economic energy distribution in the cubicles
• Easy project and detail engineering through standardized components
• Comprehensive range of standardized types
• Various design levels depending on operating and environmental conditions
• Easy combination of the different equipment systems, such as removable and
withdrawable modules, in a single cubicle
• Arc-proof design
• Earthquake-, vibration- and shock-proof design possible
• Easy assembly without any special tools
• Easy conversion and retrofit
• Largely maintenance-free
• High operational reliability and availability
• Optimum personal protection

Modular system (cubicles)

Standards
MNS is designed to comply to the requirements of the
international standard IEC 439-1 and any other referenced
IEC publication.
IEC 439-1 contains a number of sections which state that
the design is to be ”as agreed between the user and the
manufacturer”. If no other agreement is made the
ABB Installation standard is delivered.

Operating conditions
MNS switchgear is suitable for installation in closed locations
for electrical equipment and other operating facilities in
compliance with the switchgear degree of protection.
IP31-cubicles have ventilation grill in the rear panel and in roof
panels. IP31 is only used for the cubicle while all individual
distribution units are at least IP41.
IP41-cubicles are protected from contact by means of a fine
mesh grill fitted to the ventilation openings.
IP54-cubicle is without any ventilation openings and with all
doors and top plates sealed.

Corrosion resistance
The corrosion protection is obtained by using corrosion
resistant materials.
All visible panels such as doors, end panels, rear panels, etc.,
are painted only to enhance the appearance of the switchgear.
All painted panels are protected by a 20 µm thick layer of zinc.
Cubicle design.
Non-painted panels and basic elements are manufactured
from 1.5 mm Aluzink® which is a corrosion resistant sheet
steel, plated with a 25 µm thick coating.
Anchor rails and hinges are made from zinc plated steel
(12 µm) which is then either bright or yellow chromium plated.

Mechanical design
The cubicles are made up of mechanical parts joined together by screws.
The switchgear W-cubicle has a modular hole system for the installation of
withdrawable units and cover plates. Module division: 50 mm = 1 M module.
Only the sides at the left and right ends of a row of cubicles, or the side panels on
each side of a single cubicle, need to be fitted with end panels.
The MNS-cubicles are delivered complete with engraved legend plate for cubicle
identification at the cubicle top, designation plates on the withdrawable units, and
identification plate on the cubicle bottom in accordance with IEC 439-1.

Measuring instruments
ABB CEWE Instruments are used as measuring instruments. Sizes are 96 x 96,
72 x 72 or 48 x 48 mm depending on the height of the distribution unit.
The voltmeters are of the type IQ with selector switch for measuring between
phases and between phases and neutral. A 3-pole MCB is included. The voltmeter
is delivered for ranges 0–250 V, 0–500 V and 0–600 V. V A A A

Modular system (cubicles)

Protective circuit continuity

Cubicle components which are painted before assembly, are fixed in place with self-
tapping screws which destroy the painted surface in the thread area and so ensure
good electrical contact.

Busbar system
The busbar system is installed in the cubicle before delivery and includes horizontal
main busbar system including neutral and protective busbars; vertical busbars.
The horizontal busbars are situated, either at the top or at the bottom, in a
segregated area at the rear of the cubicle to prevent accidental contact.The busbars
in adjacent cubicles are interconnected at site after the cubicles have been fixed to
the foundation. This arrangement facilitates easy extension of an already existing
switchgear.
The vertical busbars are protected to degree of protection IP20. The apparatus
units are connected to the busbars with plug-in contacts. The vertical busbar system
are available with 3 or 4 poles and in two versions:
● metal enclosed
● insulated enclosed

MNS Disconnector cubicle

General
The disconnector cubicle is designed for fixed disconnectors. The cubicle is
available in sizes 1250, 2000, 2500 and 3150 A in 3- and 4-pole versions.
The cubicle has interlocking to prevent the door being opened when the switch-
disconnector is in the on-position.

Incoming supply
Different incoming supplies are available:
Cable from below is used when incoming cable is available. The cubicle is equipped
with cable conductor and anchor rail.
Cable from above is used when incoming cable is available. The cubicle is equipped
with terminals for cable connection above the roof panel.
Busbars from above are used when connection is available (not trunking system).
The cubicle has terminals for busbar connections above the roof panel.
Sectioning is used for sectioning of main busbars in the switchgear. Available for
both right and left hand supplies.

Switch-disconnector
The switch-disconnector is a fixed mounted type, ABB Control Oy, OETL with one
opening and one closing auxiliary contact.
The cubicle has interlocking so that the door cannot be opened when the switch-
disconnector is in on-position. The door must be closed to operate the switch-
disconnector.

Earthing switch (option)

Protective earthing can be made to both the upper and lower part of the discon-
nector using a built-in earthing switch, Control Oy, type OETL (1 s, 50 kA).

MNS Group boards R

General
Group boards are available in two basic designs:
With miniature circuit-breakers MCB and with D-type fuses.
See overview below.
MCB units are designed without separate terminals for the
main circuit. External cables are connected directly to
apparatus and can therefore be used in a terminal row.
D-fuse units are available in three versions: without terminal –
external cables are connected directly to the D-fuse holders,
with terminal and with group switches where the switches are
positioned last and used as terminals.
