HPL Electric unveils three new switchgear products at REI Expo

 

HPL Electric & Power, on September 15, 2021, launched three new switchgear products at the 14th edition of Renewable Energy India (REI) Expo 2021, currently underway at Greater Noida.

The new switchgear products were unveiled by Bhagwanth Khuba, Minister of State, New and Renewable Energy, Chemicals and Fertilizers, Government of India at the event.

The load break switch is a high performance sturdy switch in a compact frame. It provides safe isolation even at low voltages and up to 800V AC. The isolator can perform equally well on either on roof or ground mount solar panel applications. Moreover, the switches have inbuilt safety measure to quench arcs within the mould with the help of arc chutes. It also gives efficiency that leads to the low power losses.

The new DC Disconnectors are built particularly for photovoltaic (PV) applications and are very robust and long-lasting. They have a rated voltage of up to 1500V DC and can be utilised in PV power systems. They provide safe electrical isolation in presence of arc chutes to evade chances of hazards due to Arcs developed in DC Circuits. The switches make and break quickly under load conditions.

According to C.R. Kundu, Senior Vice President, Switchgear, HPL Electric & Power, said, “It has been an honor that we got an opportunity to launch our advanced range of switches for novel applications, in presence of Shri Bhagwanth Khuba, Minister of State, New and Renewable Energy, Chemicals and Fertilizers, Government of India. We at HPL have been working towards creating new technology which itself paves ways for others to follow and out mark today’s need in renewable energies. These best in class products offer the latest technology and innovative designs for long lasting durability. These products are compatible with solar PV applications as well as for traditional PV Applications.”
