KYN28-12 Key Applications & Operating Conditions
KYN28-12(GZS1) type armoured removable AC metal enclosed switchgear (hereinafter referred to as “switchgear”) It is suitable for three-phase AC 50Hz power system, used to receive and distribute electrical energy and control, protect and monitor the circuit. The newly introduced and developed high current and high-breaking switchgear can also be used separately as a high-voltage generator outlet.
This product conforms to the standards: GB3906 “3~35kV AC metal enclosed switchgear”, GB/T11022 “High voltage switchgear and control equipment standard common technical requirements”, IEC298 “rated voltage above 1kV 52kV and below AC metal enclosed switchgear and control equipment”.

FAQs
1: What is the rated voltage and frequency of the KYN28-12?
The KYN28-12 operates at 12kV rated voltage with 50/60Hz frequency—covering your standard medium voltage distribution requirements. It also supports 7.2kV and 40.5kV configurations in the KYN series family for broader network compatibility.
2: What does “armored withdrawable” mean vs. open-type switchgear?
“Armored” means each compartment is metal-separated—protecting your operators from arc faults during maintenance. “Withdrawable” allows you to pull out the circuit breaker truck for inspection or replacement without de-energizing the entire panel. This combination maximizes both your safety and operational continuity.
3: Does the KYN28-12 comply with IEC 62271?
Yes. The KYN28-12 is type-tested per IEC 62271-200 (AC metal-enclosed switchgear and controlgear for rated voltages above 1kV). Internal arc test classification is available for your personnel safety compliance. Full type-test reports are downloadable for your project review. →
View certifications 4: What is the vacuum circuit breaker interruption time?
The integrated vacuum circuit breaker (VCB) achieves interruption in under 50ms—significantly faster than oil-type breakers. This rapid clearing protects your downstream equipment from sustained fault currents and reduces thermal stress on your busbar system.
5: Can you customize the KYN28-12 for my specific protection scheme?
Absolutely. As the direct manufacturer, we can configure your KYN28-12 with specific protection relay settings, CT/PT ratios, and interlocking logic. Custom busbar sizing, cable entry arrangements, and smart monitoring integration are also available.
6: What is the lead time for KYN28-12 delivery?
Standard KYN28-12 models ship within 15–20 working days. Custom protection configurations require 25–30 working days. We maintain in-stock VCB components and 8MF frame assemblies to shorten your delivery timeline for urgent projects. →
