What is MV/LV switchgear?

MV/LV switchgear refers to Medium Voltage (MV) and Low Voltage (LV) switchgear assemblies. These are critical components in electrical power distribution systems. MV switchgear (typically 1kV to 36kV) is used to protect and control medium voltage circuits, often stepping down higher voltages from the transmission grid. LV switchgear (typically up to 1kV) then further distributes power to final loads. Both types of switchgear contain circuit breakers, fuses, switches, and other protective devices to isolate faults and control power flow, ensuring safety and reliability. They are commonly used in substations, industrial facilities, commercial buildings, and power plants.
