Why do we need ring main unit (RMU). what is its purpose and its advantages . what is the operating function of rmu

Answer Posted / kj

Usually a RMU is used to allow a feed of supply from 2
directions and tapping of to a transformer, etc.

Each of these supplies may have a number of RMU's in series
forming a ring. If a section of the feeder needs to be
isolated due to work or failure an RMU on each end of this
section can be opened without stopping any supply.
