Padmount Switchgears
Our padmount air‑insulated and vacuum switchgear provides quick fuse handling and dependable circuit switching for dead‑front or live‑front systems. The low‑profile enclosure supports one‑ to six‑way configurations—fusible, empty or switched—offering flexibility for any underground design.
Units are available in single‑ and three‑phase styles for industrial, commercial, and residential applications, with ratings from 15kV to 35kV and 600‑amp gang operation at 40kA momentary/fault close. Primary bushings are offered in 200A or 600A, with 200A load‑break bushings also available.
