Electrical Isolator in Substation: Types and Importance

An important component often overlooked in substations is ‘isolators’. An isolator in substations plays a significant role in ensuring the safety, efficiency, and reliability of the power system.

The complex and interconnected landscape of substations is where power generation, transmission, and distribution occur at a large scale. It isolates the electrical network from human contact to avoid accidents, regular system maintenance, and improve the system's overall stability.
