Gw5 Isolating Switch 35/40.5kV

A double column horizontal rotating design, it consists of insulated pillars, conductive blades, a base, and an operating mechanism. The blades move horizontally at a constant speed when opened and closed, with strong ice breaking ability. The insulation pillar is an anti fouling rod structure

Used for electrical isolation of high-voltage lines under no-load conditions, providing visible breakpoints to ensure maintenance safety, and cannot disconnect loads or short-circuit currents.

Support single-sided or double-sided grounding knife switch configuration to achieve linkage operation between the main circuit and the grounding circuit

The 40.5kV GW5 isolation switch, with its modular design, high mechanical lifespan (≥ 2000 cycles), and wide environmental adaptability, has become the preferred equipment for safe isolation in medium and high voltage power grids, especially suitable for new energy and industrial distribution scenarios.
