For the distribution of electrical energy, Siemens offers various gas-insulated switchgear types. In compact substations or small distribution substations, such switchgear contributes to guaranteeing uninterrupted power supply through to households and small industries. In all these applications, gas-insulated switchgear technology from Siemens provides exceptional advantages in respect of climatic independence, personal safety and maintenance-free design. For the power supply companies, this offers the high benefit of maximum supply reliability in their networks and thus, satisfied customers.

Medium-voltage and low-voltage systems change due to the increasing integration of decentralized renewable power supplies and the emerging electromobility trend in the public transport sector.
While the increasing need for load capacity can be provided by means of system expansion, the effects due to alternating direction of power flow, load fluctuations and voltage range limitation can only be handled with intelligent solutions.
Intelligent transformer substations from Siemens offer the optimum solution concept:
