Gas Insulated Switchgear (GIS) is a type of electrical switchgear used in high voltage applications. It is a compact metal encapsulated switchgear consisting of high-voltage components such as circuit breakers, isolators, earth switches, and instrument transformers, which are all enclosed in a sealed environment with sulfur hexafluoride (SF6) gas as the insulating medium. GIS is used in a variety of applications, including power transmission and distribution, industrial and commercial power systems, and renewable energy systems. GIS offers several advantages over traditional air-insulated switchgear, such as a smaller footprint, higher reliability, and improved safety. Additionally, GIS is more efficient than air-insulated switchgear, as it requires less maintenance and has a longer life span. Some of the major companies in the GIS market include ABB, Siemens, Schneider Electric, Eaton, and General Electric. Show Less Read more
