Switchgear is an integral part of the electrical power value chain. Increase in power demand and replacement of aged equipment in the T&D grid infrastructure is driving the demand for switchgears globally. Need for continuous, uninterrupted power supply and to protect the electrical equipment from fault currents, switchgears are employed. Further they are also a key component for modernization of the grid network and to integrate distributed energy sources. This study is segmented based on voltage class, enclosure type, construction type and by geographical region.
