Generator Circuit Breakers Market by Type (Air Blast circuit breakers, Vacuum circuit breakers, SF6 circuit breakers and Others), Application (Coal-fired power plants, Natural Gas power plants, Nuclear power plants and Others), & by Region - Global Trend & Forecast to 2019
[150 Pages Report] Generator circuit-breakers are connected between a generator and the step-up voltage transformer. They are generally used at the outlet of high power generators (100MVA to 1800MVA) in order to protect them in a reliable, fast, and cost-effective manner. These circuit breakers allow the passage of high permanent currents under continuous service (6.3kA to 40kA), and have a high breaking capacity (63kA to 275kA). They belong to the medium voltage range. The drivers of the generator circuit breakers market are entirely influenced by the power transmission and generation industry. Growth in the related as well as complementary markets, such as switchgear and transformer, also contribute towards the growth of generator circuit breakers.
Each region has been analyzed with respect to its market trends, growth, and future prospects in the market. This report basically aims to estimate the global market from 2014 to 2019.
The generator circuit breakers market size is estimated to reach $302.30 Million by 2019 from $267.58 Million in 2014. The major factors responsible for driving the growth of this market include increasing power transmission & generation industry and growing industrialization & urbanization.
Asia-Pacific was the largest market, followed by North America in 2013.
