ring main unit is distributing the power supply to meter cubical
AnswerA ring-main unit (rmu) is a piece of switchgear that is used to connect a transformer's primary winding to a high-voltage ring main. It consists of three load-breaking switches, each with three positions: 'on', 'off', and 'earth'. They enable the transformer to be connected/disconnected to the ring; the ring to be 'broken'; or the transformer to be connected to either half of the broken ring. The 'earth' positions allow the transformer's secondary to be earthed, or either half of the (broken) ring to be earthed.

WHAT ARE THE RATING OF RING MAIN UNIT?
The normal rating of a UK ring circuit in a domestic system using 2.5 mm2 cable in a ring is 30 amps.
What the difference between the Ring Main Unit and the Extensible Oil Switch?
Ring Main Unit (RMU) is suppose to work in medium voltage. It is flexible and allows a free flow and maintains continuity. These are very compact in size. RMU are both Extensible & Non-extensible types.
What do you mean by package substation?
Prefabricated power distribution substation Its basically a whole 11kv substation but in one unit. It contains a transformer, ring main unit, fuse board and circuit breakers etc. It still uses as much space as a normal substation that houses a separate transformer, ring main unit etc but is easier to transport and is probably cheaper.
What is pocket substation?
the pocket substation have three major parts and they are transformer , ring main unit (RMU) and low voltage distribution bored (LVDB).
