what is RMU ?
Answers were Sorted based on User's Feedback
RMU stands for Ring Main Unit having at least three
switches ( Breaker or isolator os load break switch)
connected with a bus with mechanical interlocking as per
system requirement.It can used upto 11KV with bus loading
capacity 630 A . Breaker may be of rating 200A or 630A as
per requirement. Two LBS can be used as two I/C and CB as
out going feeder or DT feeder as per requirement. In this
way O/G or DT feeder can be feed through second I/C if
supply from first I/C intruppted due to any reason. So RMU
reduce the supply ontrupption time.Many RMU's can be
connected in a ring mode in a distribution system.

Answer / dhana sekhar
Distribution networks are normally formed by interconnecting
a number of ring shaped grids. Distribution transformers are
then connected to the system by T-offs. Instead of
specifying and selecting individual components required for
a T-off, the required components are frequently available in
an integrated package known as a ring-main unit (RMU).

Answer / a jalil
Ring Main Unit. RMU used for H.T.side. RMU is having
3no.s of switches(Circuit Breakers or Isolators or LBS), it
is used for two inputs with mechanical or electrical
interlock and one outgoing to the load. Either one input
with two outgoings. RMU used for redundancy feeder’s
purpose.
