Switchgear is made up of electrical disconnect switches, fuses, or circuit breakers that are used in an electric power system to regulate, safeguard, and isolate electrical equipment. Switchgear is used to fix faults downstream as well as to de-energize equipment to allow for work.
The dependability of the electrical supply has a direct bearing on this type of equipment. Opening manually driven switches became too risky for anything other than isolating a de-energized circuit as power levels and voltages gradually increased.
Arc energy can be safely contained and managed by using oil-filled switchgear equipment. Switchgear is typically found in substations on both the high- and low-voltage sides of substantial power transformers.
In addition to medium-voltage circuit breakers for distribution circuits, metering, control, and protection equipment may be housed in a building with the switchgear on the low-voltage side of the transformers.
The Global Power-Receiving Switchgear Market accounted for $XX Billion in 2021 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2026, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2022 to 2030.
In order to provide a transmission solution for the SuedLink high-voltage direct current interconnection between the north and south of the country, two of Germany’s four transmission system operators have placed a significant order with Hitachi Energy, a global technology leader advancing a sustainable energy future for all.
One of the most significant power grid and energy transition initiatives in Germany is SuedLink DC4. It will be essential to Germany’s energy transition because it will allow for a decrease in the usage of fossil fuels and assist in the nation becoming carbon neutral.
