ElectricalDescription
Low Voltage Switchgear is a centralized system that houses protection, metering, control, and switching equipment for low voltage (typically up to 1,000V) electrical power systems. It distributes electrical power safely and efficiently while protecting the system from overloads, short circuits, and other electrical faults. It usually serves as the main distribution point for electrical circuits.
