Patent ID: 7990688

Claim:
A gas-insulated switchgear in which a bus is disposed in front thereof, comprising: a bus apparatus unit including two buses, each bus having a bus-use grounding switch disposed thereon, the buses being housed in containers; and a feeder circuit unit in which a circuit breaker and a line-side disconnecting switch are continuously disposed at a back of two bus-side disconnecting switches disposed on the buses, respectively, wherein the bus apparatus unit and the feeder circuit unit are arranged such that directions of circuit layout of the bus apparatus unit and the feeder circuit unit are substantially parallel, wherein the two buses in common between the bus apparatus unit and the feeder circuit unit are horizontally disposed such that the two buses vertically overlap, wherein two operating rods are vertically disposed, respectively, in the bus-use grounding switches disposed on the two buses, respectively, so as to be substantially perpendicular to a bus axis, wherein two operating devices for driving the two operating rods are linked to an end part of each operating rod on a side opposite the buses, and wherein the two operating devices are disposed in a direction of an upper or a lower part of the two buses, respectively, thereby preventing the containers housing the two buses from extending out forward due to the two operating devices, so as to reduce a length in a direction of circuit layout of the gas-insulated switchgear including the bus apparatus unit and the feeder circuit unit.
