Medium-voltage switchgear VECTOR

Our medium-voltage switchgear VECTOR is an air-insulated switchgear and control gear for indoor medium-voltage systems. We produce all our VECTOR units at our own factory, the largest switchgear factory in the Nordic countries, ensuring high availability and premium quality. The SF6-free switchgear has a rated voltage of 12 kV, 24 kV and 36 kV and is equipped with a vacuum circuit breaker. 

The fully type-tested VECTOR switchgear is extremely reliable in ensuring personal safety. Comprehensive combinations of electrical and mechanical interlockings secure safe operations and maintenance and prevent access to potentially dangerous parts. Each of the five compartments – main busbar, circuit breaker, cables, low voltage switchgear and relays – are isolated by metal, preventing damage to spread in case of an arc fault.

VECTOR is an exceptionally safe air-insulated 12 – 36 kV switchgear and control gear for indoor medium-voltage systems.
