In the modern era of technology and automation, a large chunk of daily processes rely on the consistent and reliable supply of power - be it in residential, commercial, or industrial settings. Fluctuating supply of power is one of the significant causes of the inefficient functioning of machinery such as motor starters, servo motors etc and other infrastructure. The threshold of the electric equipment to bear the surges is such that, all considerable fluctuations cause substantial damage to its effectiveness. Medium Voltage Switchgears are just some of our unique primary devices that are specifically designed to stabilise any unsteady or irregular flow of power. It provides shielding to the interconnected devices by controlling, metering and regulating the flow of electricity in the distribution
An electric circuit breaker is a switching device that controls and protects the electrical power system either manually or automatically, from harm caused by overload or short circuit. Its primary function is to obstruct the current flow once the protective relays detect a fault. The risk of electrocution, electrical fires, and electrical shocks is high in the lack of a circuit breaker. Based on factors like the voltage, interrupting mechanism, or installation location, there are different types of circuit breakers. Depending upon the installation location, there are two types of circuit breakers. Outdoor Circuit breakers- Owing to their unique design, these circuit breakers can be used outdoors without a roof.
Whether electric companies, windfarms or private networks, secondary switchgear makes the connection to our homes and businesses to bring us reliable power everyday. Space is often at a premium, meaning that our range of secondary gas insulated switchgear designs are the perfect fit. Our ring main units (RMUs) are becoming IoT connected and smart to bring extra benefits and everyday simplicity.
Using air-insulated technology, our primary distribution switchgear offers high-performance functionality up to 40.5 kV. Our well-known and proven designs now feature the latest connected features, such as embedded arc flash protection and condition monitoring sensors to help you maximize the life of your switchboard.
Gas-insulated switchgear(GIS) is metal-enclosed switchgear that consists of high voltage components such as circuit-breakers and disconnectors, which can be safely operated in limited spaces. It is used where the space is limited, like city buildings, on roofs, industrial plants, etc. This kind of switchgear is available from the 12KV to the 800KV system.
The latest technology in MV switchgear design, shielded solid insulation means that all live parts are earth shielded and encapsulated to minimize risks during maintenance. Combining vacuum and solid encapsulation, this SF6-free technology can be found in primary or secondary distribution applications up to 17.5 kV.
