High and low-voltage switchgear are used for the distribution and control of electricity across various power systems. They are essential devices in electrical systems due to their capabilities to provide safety, reliability, and efficiency to power delivery.
High-voltage switchgear, such as breaker panels, transfers the high-voltage electricity from the substations to the distribution networks, while low-voltage switchgear serves as the interface between the high-voltage transmission lines and the low-voltage consumers.
The application of high and low-voltage switchgear is essential in controlling the amount of electricity flowing to and from specific locations within the network. These devices help to protect and control the flow of power in the network, ensuring safety for both the electrical equipment and the personnel operating in the vicinity.
