Abstract :
This paper presents the design of GIS based on the long experiences of AIS equipment with all its improvements. The use of pressurized SF6 as insulating and arc extinguishing medium within gastight housing brought up a new design for the main elements of a substation. GIS technology typically is of modular design and filled with a minimum of SF6. It is characterized by its low life-cycle cost (LCC) and can be used for indoor and outdoor application. Today, changes in the general substation layout, making use of the specific design features of a GIS, are considered.
