Abstract

A metalclad switchgear assembly for high or medium voltage, having a cladding, includes at least one sensor arranged in an interior space of the cladding for detecting a condition variable within the cladding, the sensor having an antenna; and a transmitting and receiving antenna directed towards the interior space, the transmitting and receiving antenna serving for performing a wireless information interchange with the sensor, and for simultaneously detecting electromagnetically partial discharges in the interior space.
