Goodtech Projects & Services AB, a leading Swedish technology company, has chosen SVS\/08 modular Medium Voltage (MV) switchgear from Eaton for use in its project for Trafikverket\u2019s City Line project in Stockholm that includes the delivery of substations. Trafikverket is the state-run Swedish Transport Administration, which has started a huge effort that will see commuter trains running through a new six kilometre tunnel, greatly increasing the capacity of the rail network in Stockholm and the surrounding area. The Stockholm City Line project is scheduled for completion by 2017.<\/p>\n

The initiative involves the construction of two tunnels \u2013 a running tunnel for the trains and a service tunnel to act as an emergency escape route and to house ancillary equipment. Within the service tunnel, eleven substations operating at 22 kV will be provided. Goodtech Projects & Services has contracted Holtab AB, one of Scandinavia\u2019s leading substation manufacturers, to build the substations. All these substations will be equipped with Eaton SVS\/08 MV switchgear.<\/p>\n

After carefully analysing the technical capabilities and value for money offered by MV switchgear from different potential suppliers, Eaton\u2019s SVS\/08 was selected. The SVS\/08 and SVS\/12 are among the brands approved for use in railway applications in Sweden and feature a modular design, which will allow for easy future expansion. The equipment was also chosen for its proven track record as a safe and reliable system, and for its use of vacuum interrupters in combination with solid insulation.<\/p>\n

The vacuum interrupters offer long service lives and require no routine maintenance, while the high-quality epoxy resin insulation eliminates the risk of corona discharge and arc faults. A further benefit of this combination is that it eliminates the need to use SF6, which is noxious and a notorious greenhouse gas, as an insulator for the switchgear. This is particularly important for the City Line project, as the equipment will be installed in a tunnel where gas leakage would be especially problematic.<\/p>\n

The first of the substations has recently been completed and has been subjected to extensive factory acceptance testing, during which it met all of its design targets. Goodtech Projects & Services AB is pleased with the performance of the substation, and is looking forward to seeing the equipment installed and in service in all eleven of the City Line substations.<\/p>\n
