A cradle intended to be incorporated in a high-voltage electrical switchgear cubicle, including a mobile trolley bearing a switch apparatus provided with mobile contacts, a mechanism for operating the mobile contacts via operating springs and at least one coil for actuating the operating springs, a motorized protection shutter intended to prevent access to conductive busbars of the switchgear cubicle, and motorized device for driving the mobile trolley intended to be able to connect the switch apparatus to the conductive busbars. A first automation controller is embedded on the mobile trolley to control the operating mechanism and the actuating coil, and a second automation controller is embedded in the cradle to control the protection shutter and the device for driving the mobile trolley.

Disclosed is a device for remotely racking a circuit breaker into and out of a circuit breaker cradle received within a circuit breaker module. The device comprises an actuator configured to rotate a breaker shaft in a first direction and an opposite second direction to rack the circuit breaker into and out of the circuit breaker cradle without the need for an operator to attend in the vicinity of the circuit breaker module.

A secondary disconnect assembly for use with a circuit breaker moveable between a connected position and a disconnected position includes a first secondary disconnect apparatus and a second secondary disconnect apparatus. The first secondary disconnect apparatus includes a first coupling portion having at least one high speed communications connector. The second secondary disconnect apparatus includes a second coupling portion removably coupled to the first coupling portion. The second coupling portion includes at least one opening configured to receive the high speed communications connector when the circuit breaker is moved from the disconnected position to the connected position to enable high speed data transmission through the first coupling portion and the second coupling portion.

A medium voltage switchgear or control gear includes at least one first compartment; a cable compartment; a plurality of main components; and a plurality of auxiliary components. The plurality of main components is housed in at least one part of the at least one first compartment. The plurality of auxiliary components is housed in the cable compartment. The second connector is configured to connect to the first connector to connect a cable in the cable compartment to a component of the plurality of main components. The cable compartment is configured to be disconnected from the at least one first compartment and wherein the cable compartment is configured to be spatially separated from the at least one first compartment.
