APAC Load Break Switches Industry Overview
The Asia Pacific Load Break Switch market is moderately consolidated, with many market players cornering a very minimal share in the market. The development of regional markets and increasing shares of local players in foreign direct investments are the major factors promoting the fragmented nature of the market.
- December 2020: ABB has introduced a ring main unit (RMU) with a first-of-its-kind load break switch (LBS) that employs sustainable alternative gases to SF6 for improved performance and lower environmental impact. When opposed to air-insulated switchgear, SF6 gas has a number of advantages: it minimizes the size of switchgear while maintaining high safety standards.
- November 2020: Siemens Smart Infrastructure's offering for climate-neutral electricity distribution is growing all the time. The business has totally eliminated fluorine-based gas mixes (F-gases) from the blue portfolio's medium-voltage switchgear while keeping the compact design and safe, proven performance. The new focus for F-gas-free medium-voltage applications in secondary distribution grids from 12 to 24kV is an innovative load-break switch with a customized vacuum interrupter.
