Challenge
Within a railway infrastructure project in the Russian Federation, the customer requested the supply of six outdoor transition cable cabinets intended to serve as the power supply points for a stacking machine. The cabinets were designed not only for the transmission of medium-voltage power, but also for the combined routing of power and fiber-optic cables.
The project was particularly specific due to the combination of climatic, environmental, and certification requirements.
Key Customer Requirements
- Power supply via a 10 kV cable
- Separate incoming fiber-optic cable
- Outgoing 10 kV cable with integrated 12 optical fibers
- Ambient operating temperature from −27 °C to +31 °C
- Marine environment, altitude 15 m above sea level
- EAC certification for the Russian Federation
- Red color design
Delivered Solution
IVEP designed and delivered an outdoor 12 kV medium-voltage cable connection cabinet, adapted for the combined transmission of power and data under the demanding operating conditions of railway infrastructure.
Technical Specifications
- Rated voltage: 12 kV
- Rated current: 200 A
- Short-circuit withstand: 10 kA / 1 s
The cabinet design allows for separate routing of power and fiber-optic sections, ensuring clear installation and protection of sensitive data paths. The cabinet is intended for outdoor operation, taking into account low temperatures, humidity, and increased corrosion loads typical of coastal areas.
Certification and Design
The scope of supply included compliance with EAC certification requirements necessary for operation within the territory of the Russian Federation. The cabinets were delivered in a red color design, meeting customer requirements and ensuring good visibility in the railway environment.
Result
- A safe power supply point for a stacking machine in railway operation.
- Combination of MV power supply and optical communication in a single device.
- Reliable operation across a wide range of climatic conditions.
- Delivery of 6 cabinets on February 27, 2020.
