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.

Answer / vale

The RMU is intended to be used in medium voltage (11KV to
36KV) Ring distribution system in any power
supply/distribution utilities. RMU offers greater
flexibility in supply system in maintaining continuity and
offers practically maintenance free operation. The RMUs are
very compact in size compared to MV switchgear panels.

Answer / subin

Ring main unit is used in a secondary distribution system.
It is basically used for an uninterrupted power supply.
Alongside, it also protects your secondary side transformer
from the occasional transient currents. Depending on your
applications and loading conditons you can use a swicth
fuse combination or a circuit breaker to protect the
transformer. This transformer connected to the switch fuse/
circuit breaker is called your T off. In a common
arrangement you have Load break swicthes on both the sides
of your T off. Ring main Units come in standard ratings of
11/22/33 kV, 630/1250 A, 21 KA/3 secs.
