GenieEvo now offers increased resilience, safety and reliability with higher fault current protection of 31.5kA. SF6-free intelligent equipment monitoring enables condition-based and predictive maintenance.
The leader in the digital transformation of energy management and automation, announces the launch of GenieEvo 31.5kA in the UK and Ireland.
GenieEvo is an air insulated medium voltage switchgear offering, with resilience, safety, and reliability at its core.
Its higher fault current protection of 31.5kA, up from 25kA in previous iterations, means it reduces the risk of power outages by minimisig the dangers of equipment damage in the event of power overloads or short circuits
GenieEvo is digital in design and comes with Schneider Electric’s EcoCare membership services plan. It incorporates smart Internet of Things (IoT) sensors which transmit data, in real-time, to experts at Schneider Electric’s Connected Services Hub for monitoring and analysis. This enables condition-based monitoring and predictive maintenance which can cut the number of unplanned outages and ensure a more efficient approach to maintaining equipment.
It is particularly suited to those with heavy-duty electrical distribution needs such as Distribution Network Operators (DNOs), data centres, and medium to large sites with significant energy requirements. These include industries such as oil and gas, mining, and manufacturing as well as large buildings including airports and hospitals.
GenieEvo key features include:
A pure air design vacuum switchgear with a high fault current rating of 31.5kA for enhanced resilience, safety, and reliability
Newly designed C-type bushings which are easy to install offering improved insulation, durability, and thermal management
Innovative 2000A Busbar CTs ensuring high accuracy in metering and monitoring
A-FL switchgear front and side protection for users for Internal Arc Compliance (IAC)
IoT sensors monitoring thermal, environmental, and partial discharge data, 24/7, enabling condition-based and predictive maintenance
A compact design which can reduce space requirements by up to 40%. It comes with pre-engineered panels to meet individual requirements and can scale to meet future needs
“To enable the energy transition, we need to integrate more energy sources to the distribution network, and this creates challenges, particularly for those with significant electricity demands,” said David Hall, Schneider Electric’s Vice President of Power Systems UK&I. “Organisations can’t afford power outages and must take control when it comes to resilience, safety, and reliability. They should look at their switchgear as a priority. GenieEvo has been developed in response to market demands allowing them to do just this.”Schneider Electric will manufacture the GenieEvo at its Leeds site.
