11.1 Substation Clearances Quiz

The document discusses typical electrical clearances for substations. It provides clearance distances for transformers (500mm phase to ground for 11kV/275kV transformers), and busbars (2100mm phase to phase and 2400mm minimum insulation height for 275kV busbars). Isolation points and work zones are identified for a sample circuit, with the main busbar, disconnectors, protective items, circuit breakers, and cable sealing ends marked.
