Primary Air Insulated Switchgear

What is primary air insulated switchgear?

Metal-enclosed MV switchgear where the high-voltage compartment is insulated by conditioned air rather than SF6, engineered for primary distribution — the upstream part of the network feeding secondary rings.

Primary air insulated switchgear uses conditioned air for phase-to-earth and phase-to-phase insulation, while a sealed vacuum circuit breaker handles current interruption. The panels are built for the higher reliability demands of primary networks — incomers, feeders, metering and bus-tie — and are type-tested to IEC 62271-200. With no SF6 sealed in, the switchgear has zero global-warming potential and no fluorinated-gas compliance burden.

Air insulation

Conditioned air provides clean, breathable, non-toxic insulation with zero GWP.

Vacuum breaker

Sealed vacuum circuit breakers handle load, fault and transformer currents independently of the gas.

Primary-grade ratings

Type-tested withstand levels for the reliability demands of primary distribution networks.

Advantages for primary networks

SF6-free

No fluorinated gas — zero GWP and no F-gas reporting or recovery at end of life.

Safe on site

Air does not displace oxygen; no asphyxiation risk in switchrooms and cable areas.

Low maintenance

No gas-density top-ups; sealed vacuum parts and condition monitoring keep service simple.

Long service life

Sealed construction and vacuum breakers designed for decades of primary-network duty.

Recyclable

Steel enclosure and copper busbar recycle as standard materials at end of life.

OEM / ODM

Panels built to your one-line diagram and brand, with IEC 62271 documentation for tenders.
