Mounting Base With Arc Plenum

View page
US Patent:
7821774, Oct 26, 2010
Filed:
Jan 30, 2009
Appl. No.:
12/362750
Inventors:
Harry W. Josten - Grapevine TX, US
Keith Flowers - Euless TX, US
Rahul Rajvanshi - Irving TX, US
Assignee:
Siemens Industry, Inc. - Alpharetta GA
International Classification:
H02B 5/00
H01H 33/02
US Classification:
361605, 361601, 174 17 VA, 218157
Abstract:
The present invention relates generally to a switchgear apparatus. More particularly, the invention encompasses a mounting base with arc plenum for a switchgear apparatus. The present invention also relates to enclosures for switchgear, panel boards, circuit breakers, and more particularly to an enclosure for low voltage switchgear and switchboard assemblies. The enclosure can be a walk-in type enclosure or a non-walk-in type enclosure. This invention further provides a method and apparatus for channeling plasma (hot arc gasses) that are generated from an arc. The switchgear mounting base with internal arc plenum can be an integral part of an arc resistant switchgear assembly and is preferably located under the switchgear. The switchgear mounting base works in conjunction with a ventilation system in the switchgear apparatus to channel hot arc gasses (plasma) from the lower breaker compartments in the front of the switchgear in the event of an internal arcing fault in one of the breaker compartments. The hot arc gasses exit downward from the bottom of the switchgear and into the plenum.
