Gas-insulated switchgear for rated voltages of 72.5 kV to 550 kV
News on blue portfolio
The Siemens range of gas-insulated switchgear (GIS), for rated voltages from 72.5 kV up to 550 kV, is an extremely successful product concept. Since its introduction back in 1968, Siemens has installed switch fields in all climatic zones of the earth, recording over 420,000 years of operation since. Our over 45 years of experience with SF6 technology together with continuous development based on the latest research findings guarantees demand-oriented technology and the highest possible quality and cost-effectiveness. Siemens switchgear meet all performance and reliability requirements specified for modern and advanced switchgear. Their compact design allows their use in the most confined spaces, whether in the basement of a high-rise building, in a department store, in an industrial plant, on the first floor of an old historic building or in a mobile container. Main features:
Advantages:
In addition to gas-insulated switchgear, Siemens also supplies gas-insulated transmission lines (GIL) for transmitting high capacities of power over long distances. |

Enabling higher voltage levels within wind turbines
Increased environmental awareness and improved resource efficiency are essential in today’s world. Offshore wind power is making a major contribution to meeting these challenges. Increasing power demand requires a new generation of wind power plants equipped with innovative technologies. One core aspect: Due to increased wind turbine power, there is a movement to high voltage within the wind turbine network to decrease the current and therefore the cable losses. This is where compact, environmentally friendly high-voltage switchgear can make an optimal contribution. Main features:

HIS 8DQ1 highly-integrated switchgear up to 550 kV
HIS – the gas-insulated switchgear for indoor and outdoor use needs less than half of the space of a comparable air-insulated substation. The 8DQ1-type HIS is a compact switchgear solution for a rated voltage of up to 550 kV. It is mainly used for cost-efficient renewals or expansions of air-insulated outdoor and indoor substations, particularly if the operator wants to make modifications while the switchgear is in service.
