This presentation is aimed at customers who are interested in Load
Interrupter switchgear. Generally, these customers understand the
product and have a need for it or have used it in their
distribution systems. The main goal will be to ignite interest for
the customer to write ABB into their specification or give ABB an
opportunity to quote on future projects. If there are specific
technical questions about the load break switch or configurations
available, please send questions to the marketing engineer
(currently Megan Gibbs
[email protected]).

Load Interrupter Switchgear is a cost effective solution for
distribution equipment when infrequent switching and protective
relaying is not required
It can be used to interrupt load, sectionalize, isolate and provide
short circuit protection via fuses
The main purpose of this product is to act as secondary
distribution used to interrupt load when infrequent switching or
protective relaying are required.

Examples of product placement:
Industrial plant that requires power transformer
This is not going to serve as protection on a Utilities main
distribution grid. This product would be installed in an industrial
or commercial setting.

Load interrupter switchgear fills a product gap in ABB medium
voltage offering
Here are some of the reasons why ABB load interrupter switchgear is
a great product to buy: ABB has very good switch technology, we can
offer all ratings in standard (pre-engineered) designs as well as
customized project designs. This product fills a gap in the ABB
medium voltage product portfolio; this will make it much easier to
come to ABB for a complete package rather than outsourcing and
worrying about product coordination.
