SF6 GAS Environmental impacts
|
The
reduction of the size of the switchgear, compared to conventional designs (open
type and metal-enclosed air-insulated switchgear) allows a reduction of material
required. In general the reductions are usually very important not only in structural
materials but also in solid insulating materials and electric conductive active
parts.

In the
other hand the use of SF6 switchgear, requiring less dimensions of busbars and
electric conductive active parts of the switching devices will reduce the
energy Losses
by Joule effect in the switchgear itself.
At the same time, the possibility
of installing
the compact equipment closer to the load demand, makes the network itself
more efficient reducing the losses. This is, therefore, an indirect reduction
of energy
use by the application of SF6 switchgear in the network.
