  • Solid
  • Air
  • Others
     

Oil accounted for the largest market share

The report has provided a detailed breakup and analysis of the market based on insulation. This includes gas, oil, solid, air, and others. According to the report, oil accounted for the largest market share.

Oil as an insulator is widely used in fluorescent lamp ballasts, high-voltage capacitors and switches, oil-filled transformers, and circuit breakers. It assists in preventing arcing and electrical breakdown by offering a high dielectric strength. Moreover, oil also protects other components, such as copper coils from damage, including burning. For example, in September 2022, Baoding Tianwei Baobian Electric Co. Ltd., announced the development of its 110KV natural ester oil transformer. The ester oil utilized in the transformer had a 98% natural degradation rate and a higher ignition point.

Breakup by Phase:

  • Single
  • Three
     

Three accounted for the largest market segment

The report has provided a detailed breakup and analysis of the market based on the phase. This includes single and three. According to the report, three accounted for the largest market segment.

The elevating requirement for three-phase transformers in manufacturing, mining, petrochemical, and telecommunication industries, for generating and distributing power is bolstering the market growth forward. For instance, in July 2023, as part of works under the Revamped Distribution Sector Scheme (RDSS), Ongole Circle of the Andhra Pradesh Central Power Distribution Company Ltd., (APCPDCL) provided 24-hour power supply to all villages through three-phase supply lines.

Breakup by Rating:
