Where double feed is provided for any single load it is preferable to have
one circuit from each section.
In this arrangement each section behaves as a separate bus bar and any
outage can be confined to one section of the bus bar.

RING BUS OR MESH SCHEME
THE
In this scheme theELECTRIC SUB
breakers are STATION
arranged in a ring with
circuits connected between breakers.

There are the same number of circuits as there are breakers.
M L SHESHADRI
During normal operation, all breakers are closed. For a circuit
fault, two breakers are tripped, and in the event one of the
breaker fails to operate to clear the fault, an additional circuit
will be tripped by operation of breaker- failure back up relays.

RING BUS OR MESH SCHEME
The circuits connected to the ring are arranged so that sources are
alternated with loads.
M L SHESHADRI
For an extended circuit outage, the line isolator may be opened
and the ring can be closed.
No changes to protective relays are required for any of the various
operating conditions or during maintenance.
The ring bus scheme is economical in cost, has good reliability, is
safe for operation, is flexible, and is normally considered suitable
for important sub stations up to a limit of five circuits.
It is common practice to build major sub stations initially as a ring
bus; for more than five outgoing circuits, the ring bus is usually
developed to the breaker-and-a-half scheme.

BREAKER -AND -A -HALF SCHEME
Under normal operating conditions all breakers are closed
M L SHESHADRI
and both buses are energized.
A circuit is tripped by opening the two associated circuit
breakers.
Tie breaker failure will trip one additional circuit, but no
additional circuit is lost if a line trip involves failure of a bus
breaker.
Either bus may be taken out of service at any time with no
loss of service.
With sources connected opposite loads, it is possible to
operate with both buses out of service.
Breaker maintenance can be done with no loss of service, no
relay changes, and simple operation of the breaker isolators.17

A practical maximum ratio is 3000 / 1.
If larger primary ratings are required (e.g. for large

Circuit Breakers
The ionized particles between the contacts tend to maintain the arc. If the arc
path is deionized ,the arc extinction is facilitated .This may be achieved by
cooling the arc or by bodily removing the ionized particles from the space
between the contacts.(Low Resistance Method)
The switching Resistor (R) is connected in parallel with the CB contacts. Current
chopping produces high voltage oscillations which can be prevented by this
method.
During arc interruption CB contacts separate first and after arc gets
extinguished S opens depending upon the time delay provided to it.
When the fault occurs the CB contacts open and arc is struck between them.
Since R is in parallel with Cb contacts ,a part of arc current flows through
this resistance so arc current decreases and deionization rate increases. The
arc resistance also increases so current through R increases. This continue
till the arc current is insufficient to maintain the arc.
Advantages Disadvantages
