These capacitors, installed in parallel with circuit breaker chambers, are essential for regulating voltage distribution and mitigating transient overvoltage during switchgear switching operations. With over 50 years of expertise in this field, our engineering team specialises in designing adapted solutions of grading capacitors for both Gas Insulated Switchgear (GIS) and Air Insulated Switchgear (AIS) applications.
