Market Insights

In the field of electrical engineering, electric switchgear is defined as a combination of devices that include switches, fuses, isolators, circuit breakers, relays, control panels, lightning arrestors, current transformers, and potential transformers, among others. The switchgear is typically used to detect faults and disconnect the corrupted section from the circuit to prevent any possible damage to the system. The switchgear equipment is essentially concerned with switching and interrupting currents either under normal or abnormal operating conditions. The use of switchgear instead of fuses offers superior benefits such as reliability, certain detection of faulty circuits, quick operation, and provision for manual control. Due to the aforementioned merits, switchgear has been extensively used to protect electrical equipment for a variety of electrical end-users.

Switchgear protection plays a vital role in every step of a modern-day electrical system, such as generation, transmission, and distribution. It prevents the loss of expensive electrical equipment from a variety of electrical abnormalities, including overcurrent, short circuits, and any other faults in the system. Depending on the application, switchgear is available in a wide range of ratings and varieties. Apart from power system networks, switchgear is also extensively used for industrial works, industrial projects, domestic and commercial buildings, marine applications, and mining, among others. With the growing trend of electrical network upgrades, the growing infrastructure for non-conventional energy systems, and the establishment of smart electric grids, switchgear provide a crucial aid in the field of electrical system automation. As a result, demand for switchgear is expected to rise in tandem with the global adoption of smart grid applications.
