DT1-145 63
Dead Tank Circuit Breaker for 145 kV/63 kA
The DT1-145 63 rated for 63 kA represents the latest dead tank circuit breaker technology. This circuit breaker is specifically designed and tested for general or definite purpose applications as well as for severe environmental conditions including low temperature, highly active seismic areas and regions with high pollution levels or corrosive atmospheres.
The DT1-145 63 is suitable for application up to nameplate ratings, including definite purpose ratings. Extensive mechanical design testing to 10,000 operations and Class M2 certification ensure trouble-free operation for the lifetime of the circuit breaker.

Gas Tightness Guarantee
GE leads the industry in SF6 gas tightness testing technology including seals, castings, and plumbing systems. Each breaker is factory tested using GE’s proprietary gas tightness testing system which provides measurable, quantifiable test results on the breaker in its fully assembled, as-shipped condition.
Quality
GE designs, manufactures, tests and delivers its circuit breakers in accordance with the latest IEEE/ANSI and IEC standards, maintaining a quality assurance system according to ISO-9011 and ISO-14001 certifications. The center of excellence for dead tank circuit breakers is located in Charleroi, PA.
Installation and Maintenance
The DT1-145 63 is factory tested and adjusted and don not require an y “special tools” for installation. Designed with the smallest symmetrical footprint to allow for minimized foundation costs, they are recognized worldwide as easy-to-install and operate circuit breakers. Thanks to the low energy mechanism and lifetime lubricants, the DT series is virtually maintenance free.
The DT1 series on-site installation requires only a few simple steps. For installations where truck shipment is impossible, all DT series circuit breakers can be readied for standard container shipment with only their bushings disassembled.
