A switchgear enclosure (36) includes an exterior housing (38). A plurality of compartments (14) within the exterior housing (38) includes at least a first switching device compartment (16), a bus compartment (20), and a first cable compartment (22). A plurality of interior partitions (54) arranged to subdivide the exterior housing (38) into the plurality of compartments (14) includes at least a first partition (56) between the first switching device compartment (16) and the first cable compartment (22), and a second partition (58) between the bus compartment (20) and the first cable compartment (22). An exhaust system (12) includes a vent path structure (64) arranged within the exterior housing (38) to at least partially surround the bus compartment (20) and the first cable compartment (22), a channel formed between the vent path structure (64) and the exterior housing (38), and a first vent device in the first partition (56). The first vent device is configured to fluidically connect the first switching device compartment (16) to the channel via the vent path structure (64).

A seal ring assembly 400 includes a first seal ring axially disposed from a second seal ring. The first seal ring 412H has an axial face 413 opposing an axial face 414 of the second seal ring 412A. A radial oil channel 405 is defined between the two axial faces. Both seal rings have a tapered surface configured to contact a spring 440. The spring biases the seal rings away from each other via the tapered surface. Both seal rings are disposed in a radially inwardly directed channel. At least one of the seal rings have a plurality of protrusions 460 that extend beyond the axial face. The protrusions are configured to create a passageway to allow oil to flow through the passageway and to allow at least one of the seal rings to move into a desired position by reducing static friction between the axial faces.

A fixed contact (22) for joining a bus bar and a sliding contact of an electrical switchgear (12) is provided. The fixed contact includes a plurality of circumferential segments (32, 34) operatively coupled to each other. The fixed contact also includes an axial extent extending along a longitudinal axis (30) of the fixed contact from a first end (38) of the fixed contact to a second end (44) of the fixed contact, the axial extent comprising a mounting region (36), a central region (40) and a sliding contact engagement region (42). The mounting region extends axially from the first end of the fixed contact to the central region, the mounting region configured to be operatively coupled to the bus bar. The sliding contact engagement region extends axially from the central region to the second end of the fixed contact, the sliding contact region configured to be slidably engaged with a sliding contact.

A bi-directional DC-DC converter assembly 18 that processes and transfers differential power in a variable manner is disclosed. The converter assembly 18 is coupled to an energy storage device 16 and DC link 22, with the converter assembly 18 including a first converter section 38 coupled to the energy storage device 16 and a second converter section 40 coupled to the DC link 22 and to the energy storage device 16. The converter assembly 18 processes a first portion of the DC power output of the energy storage device 16 and provides an unprocessed second portion of the DC power output of the energy storage device 16 to the second converter section 40 when providing power to the load 24, and processes a first portion of a regenerative power from the load 24 and provides an unprocessed second portion of the regenerative power from the load to the first converter section 38 when providing regenerative power to the energy storage device 16.

An electrical machine 1 exhibiting reduced friction and windage losses is disclosed. The electrical machine 1 includes a stator 2 and a rotor assembly 32 configured to rotate relative to the stator, wherein the rotor assembly comprises a rotor core including a plurality of salient rotor poles 12 that are spaced apart from one another around an inner hub such that an interpolar gap 3 is formed between each adjacent pair of salient rotor poles 12, with an opening being defined by the rotor core in each interpolar gap 90. Electrically non-conductive and non-magnetic inserts 88 are positioned in the gaps 90 formed between the salient rotor poles, with each of the inserts 88 having a shape that is configured to mate with a respective opening 86 being defined by the rotor core, so as to secure the insert 88 to the rotor core against centrifugal force experienced during rotation of the rotor assembly 32.
