Anonymous Poster	Breakers on a ring-bus? 01/06/2010 3:55 PM
	I am new to the electric utility industry, and have a host of questions. For the sake of brevity, I'll limit this inquiry to one, namely concerning the functionality of a typical ring-bus switching/substation. Are all breakers on the ring-bus usually on (closed) at the same time?

	Yes, it can be closed at all the time and perhaps it cannot. It depends upon the system needs. But the usual or normal configuration of this one is all breakers are normally closed.
