Schneider Electric is a multinational corporation that specializes in energy management and automation solutions. They offer a wide range of electrical distribution and switchgear products, catering to various industries and applications.
Switchgear is an essential component in electrical systems that helps control, protect, and isolate electrical equipment and circuits. Schneider Electric’s switchgear products include:
- Low Voltage (LV) Switchgear: These are used in low voltage electrical systems typically up to 1000V AC and are commonly found in residential, commercial, and industrial applications.
- Medium Voltage (MV) Switchgear: Designed for medium voltage electrical systems, typically ranging from 1kV to 33kV. MV switchgear is often used in industrial facilities, power distribution substations, and infrastructure projects.
- High Voltage (HV) Switchgear: Used for high voltage applications above 33kV and is commonly employed in utility power distribution and large-scale industrial installations.
- Ring Main Units (RMUs): Compact and self-contained switchgear used in secondary distribution networks for urban and rural areas.
- Motor Control Centers (MCCs): These provide centralized control and protection for electric motors in industrial processes.
- Control Panels: Customized panels used to house various electrical control and automation components.
- Panelboards and Distribution Boards: These are used to distribute power to different loads and circuits within buildings and industrial facilities.
