Medium Voltage Switchgear - GMK

Medium Voltage Outdoor Switchgear for connecting Renewables and Private Infrastructure.

The GMK is a medium voltage circuit breaker, protection relay, power quality monitor, SCADA RTU and interlocked earth switch in a pad mount kiosk.

Choose your GMK voltage class from 11 kV to 38 kV. Further options include integrated revenue metering, internal arc classification, or auto-changeover designs.

The complete assembly is tested at the factory in Brisbane Australia - saving big on site commissioning and engineering charges.

    Infrastructure Connections to Existing Overhead Assets

    The POWINS-NOJA Power Mobile Substation facilitates planned infrastructure operations that have a requirement to “take from” or “export to” an existing overhead service. The NOJA Power GMK provides a 15 kV OSM Recloser and load side interlocked earthing switch in an environmentally resilient assembly.

  • Two NOJA Power GMK's

    Photovoltaic (PV) & Battery Storage Connection

    The GMK-3000 and RC-20 controller provides both conventional protection and utility Power Quality monitoring. The GMK-4000 houses two NOJA Power OSM units configured as Circuit Breakers complete with RC-10 controllers. Having two circuit breakers allows load shedding under a switching agreement with the local utility.

    Protection of Underground Cables

    NOJA Power’s GMK product provides DIN taper bushings for direct underground cable terminations onto the device. The segregated nature of the GMK design also splits the device into three separate compartments – the Cable Bay, the HV cabinet with Switchgear and the Low Voltage Instrument Panel.

Factory Tested to the most rigorous industry standards.

The GMK allows for a fully specified and encapsulated switchgear arrangement to be built and tested in the clean room environment of the state of the art NOJA Power manufacturing campus in Brisbane Australia.
