Selamat Datang!
We are here to help you learn about the
new Schneider ADVC controller: the
panel, the software, and how to use both
of them, as well as the switchgear.
There are 2 of us, here for 2 days:
Shane Caddaye Training Manager

Production
The reclosers factory generally runs a single shift each day of the
week for 50 weeks of the year, and produces around 30% of the
world market in reclosers.
The Eagle Farm, Brisbane site houses around 500 people, with 200
of these directly involved in the sales, production & marketing of the
reclosers suite of products.
Schneider Electric won the Queensland Engineering Excellence
Award in 2010 for Research & Development for their
ADVC Controller Range.

Sulfur hexafluoride (SF
6
)
SF
6
is an inorganic, colorless, odorless, non-toxic and non-
flammable man-made gas with excellent insulating and arc-
quenching properties used in Schneider Electrics N-Series ACR
(insulation only) and also the RL-Series LBS (insulation & puffer-
type arc quenching).
The current version of the Schneider Electric document Field Service Manual
CAPM4, 5 N00-XXX describes the process & equipment for SF
6
gas filling. The
document contains a reproduction of the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) for SF
6

gas, as well as the method for calculating the adjustments to the default pressure
(N-Series: 35kPa / RL-Series: 105kPa)
SF
6
has 2.5 times the dielectric strength of air, increasing up to
10 times under pressure, and is not hazardous in normal use
Schneider Electric products emit negligible SF
6
as the gas is
contained in closed systems. An extremely dense gas 5 times
heavier than air - SF
6
will pool in enclosed spaces and displace
oxygen although it can be breathed without danger, breathing
ONLY SF
6
will eventually result in death by asphyxiation.

A rating that specifies the strength of the enclosure that houses electronic equipment:
the first digit measures the degree of protection provided against solid object, the
second number measures the degree of protection provided against liquids.

WSOS5 software
The Schneider Electric proprietary WSOS5
(Windows Switchgear Operating System) allows you to configure,
access & control all of your Schneider Reclosers & Sectionalisers.
Manage your whole network remotely via your own communications
links, or use a PC locally via USB, serial or ethernet
Configure protection & communication features, SCADA protocols
(DNP3 / IEC / Modbus), and data measurement
Organise your switchgear into logical groups using the Switchgear
Explorer feature
Trip & Close, view & retrieve Event Log information and much more!
22
The Windows Switchgear Operating System (WSOS) software package
supports a variety of communications protocols that can be configured and used
with the ADVC Range of controllers:

DNP3 balanced (both master and slave can initiate communications)
IEC 60870-5-101/4 can operate as balanced or unbalanced
MODBUS unbalanced (only master can initiate communications)
MITS unbalanced (only master can initiate communications)
