Answer / tareq harb
switchgear is simply a protected bus bar against short ckt,
earth fault, overcurrent & under frequency.
Moreover you can monitor Voltage, current, frequency, pf,
KVARs & kw locally & remotely.
bypassing advantage in the switchgear which means
transferring one feeder load to another breaker on the same
switch gear in case of that feeder breaker failure.

Switchgears are the safety devices, which initiates the
operation of Circuit breaker..mean switch gears are
initiates the CB's operationssssssssss..

Answer / aman rana
switchgear is a combination of ct,pt,circuit breaker & relays. it is used to break the load under normal & abnormal condition. in the switchgear ct will sense the fault current & relay calculate the type of fault & give comand to circuit breaker for trip the circuit .

Answer / c.kishore kumar
switch gear is nothing but a safety device, which is used to
command the circuit breaker for opening and closing under
abnormal condition
