ARMOURED STATION ELEMENT ARTICULATED TO THE GROUND

摘要

The invention concerns a high voltage shielded station comprising at least a circuit breaker electrically and mechanically connected to at least a set of bars (3, 4) extending along a direction (D) transverse to the longitudinal axis (AX) of the circuit breaker. The metal cladding (1) is fixed to the ground via an articulation allowing a slight pendular movement of the cladding when said set of bars (3, 4) expands along said transverse direction (D). Such an arrangement eliminates or reduces the use of axial bellows on the set of bars to reduce production cost of the armoured station. Advantageously, combined with said articulation, the cladding is designed to be flexible in order to reduce mechanical stresses in the cladding when the set of bars expands.
