About The Entry

It is an intelligent, high-end, and compact high-voltage switchgear solution. It integrates four functions including protection, measurement & control, intelligence, and switching, enabling real-time monitoring of the equipment status and transforming conventional power equipment into a perceptive smart terminal. It allows remote control and data sharing, meeting high-end requirements in electricity and new energy fields.

Featuring a compact 650mm-wide body, this switchgear decreases the volume by 29% to 51% compared to conventional 800mm/1000mm-wide solutions, saving footprint, improving space efficiency, facilitating equipment transportation and installation, and reducing steel consumption. It takes a novel triple-door layout, combined with concealed smart locks and an integrated touch display, optimizing ergonomics and redefining visual aesthetics.

This switchgear crafts a clean and fluid geometric shape through precisely proportioned beveled edges. It skillfully integrates sheet metal welding with metal splicing, achieving organic unity of materials. Equipped with a glass touch display, it allows touch control with clear data visualization (equipment status, measurement data, alarm information, etc.), enhancing user interaction.

In addition, this switchgear incorporates advanced sensing, communication, and data analysis, enabling real-time monitoring and remote control, which reduces reliance on professional expertise. It offers PLC control with a handheld terminal, allowing one-key sequence control to simplify operation. It applies a clear, intuitive UI design with role-based access control, providing real-time display of equipment status, measurement data, and alarm information while supporting historical trend query and alarm log review, which facilitates monitoring and management.
