KRU-E-2-10
Metal-clad switchgear of the KRU-E-2-10 series is intended for receiving and distributing electrical energy of three-phase alternating current at a frequency of 50 or 60 Hz and a voltage of 6 or 10 kV in networks with an isolated neutral or a neutral earthed through an arc-suppression reactor.
It is used in indoor switchgear and electrical installations with frequent switching operations. The 6(10) kV indoor switchgear is assembled from individual switchgear cubicles, each of which houses the equipment of a single connection to the busbars of the indoor switchgear.
KRU-E-2-10 series cubicles comply with TU U 27.1-40132794-001:2016 and DSTU IEC 62271-200:2015.
The switchgear cubicles are equipped with circuit breakers of the type:
- HGV (Hyundai);
- VR 1-3 (RZVA, Rivne, Ukraine);
- VD-4, VM-1 (ABB, Germany);
- Evolis (Schneider Electric, France).
The switchgear cubicle is a metal prefabricated structure of the frame-and-panel type, made of high-quality steel sheet on high-precision equipment, painted by powder coating, with high-voltage equipment built into it, as well as measuring, signalling, protection and control devices.
Climatic version U3 per GOST 15150-69.
Protection rating of cubicles – IP20 per DSTU EN 60529:2014.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
The KRU-E-2-10 is outdoor metal-clad switchgear (excavator-mounted) for a voltage of 6–10 kV. It is intended for receiving and distributing electricity to power quarry excavators, drilling rigs, high-voltage motors and other consumers in quarries and the mining industry.
The main difference is vibration resistance. Since the KRU-E is installed directly on the rotating platforms of excavators or near operating heavy machinery, its enclosure has reinforced rigidity, and all components and relay protection are resistant to constant vibrations, shaking and impacts typical of quarry operation.
The basis of the circuit is usually a vacuum circuit breaker, which provides switching of the power circuit. It also includes a disconnector (to create a visible break), current and voltage transformers (for metering and protection), as well as surge arresters and a relay protection system against short-circuit currents.
