Non-Fused Switch Disconnector Market - Forecasts from 2022 to 2027

The non-fused switch Disconnector market is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate of 4.17% over the forecast period to reach a market size of US$3.847 billion in 2027, from US$2.89 billion in 2020.



Non-fused switch Disconnector is a safety device used to power down a circuit and thus helps in its maintenance and servicing. This device majorly helps the technicians by providing a high level of safety during the maintenance of circuits. Non-fused switch disconnectors are used in buildings and industries and are available for high, medium, and low voltage purposes. What makes them different from the fused switch disconnector is that the non-fused switch disconnector uses a knife blade disconnect instead of a fuse to break the circuit.

 Based on voltage, low voltage non-fused switch disconnectors are widely demanded because of their application from power distribution to commercial application. Low voltage switches are widely used in switchboards as the main disconnecting devices. On the other hand, high voltage switch disconnectors and high voltage non-fused switch disconnectors are used in electrical substations, transformers, etc., and work as circuit breakers.

Non-Fused Switch Disconnectors are available in two types: rotary and knife blades. A rotary switch opens and closes a circuit through the rotation of the lever, while a knife blade switch uses a hinge for the operation.

Increasing Industrialization and development:

The major factor that is expected to drive up this industry is the growing industrialization, especially in developing economies of China, India, etc. The growing industrialization is expected to boost the demand for non-fused switch disconnectors since it provides an easy means to open and close a circuit. It provides safety not just to the technicians but also against short circuits and circuit overloads which makes it a necessary application to be installed. Besides that, developing nations also face a need for more electric power generation for the developing infrastructure and urbanization. With this kept in mind, the need for a non-fused switch disconnector is also expected to rise to enable easy transmission and distribution of electricity to global networks.

Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic on the Non-Fused Switch Disconnector Market:

COVID-19 global pandemic severely affected every industry and sector of the economy. The disease, along with lockdown, curfew, strict mobility control, disrupted supply chain and export chains, lack of labor, etc., hampered the supply and demand side of the product. The pandemic led to the shutting down of almost all the industries, which stopped their operations. Because the this, the non-fused switch disconnector market also faced a hit that hampered its supply and demand. Lack of labor due to the disease meant no operations,  electricity, and excess power generation for the industries, which reduced the application of these switches, and thus demand for the non-fused switch disconnectors also went down.

The sudden bounce-back of industries to operations is expected to boost this market because of resumed operations and the ever-increasing use of electricity, especially in developing economies. As per a report published in Business Standard, India’s Power consumption jumped from 112.14 BU in July 2020 to 125.51 BU in July 2021, establishing an increase of nearly 12%.
