Business Edge
The Switchgear Works of Crompton Greaves is located on a 1,32,540 sq.mtrs.
plot in Nashik on the Mumbai Agra National Highway and is demarcated in
four main divisions: HV & EHV SF6 Gas Switchgear, HV & EHV Instrument
Transformer, Medium Voltage Vacuum Switchgear and Lightning Arresters.
Operations commenced in 1980 with the manufacture of Medium Voltage
Switchgear, which was relocated from Kanjur Mumbai Works & extended to
all range of MV, HV, EHV & UHV Products.
A specialised Business Unit spearheads the export thrust for in-house products
as well as carefully out-sourced synergistic products for supply to Trade,
Industry, OEMs and Power Utilities.
Our regional establishments throughout India have factory-trained personnel
to provide prompt pre & after sales service, supporting our marketing & service
personnel located at the factory.

Disconnector - Introduction & Feature
Isolators / Disconnectors

Introduction 3) Operating mechanism.

Crompton Greaves Ltd. is one of the leading manufacturers of
Disconnectors in the world. We manufacture Disconnectors ranging
24 kV to 245 kV.
More than 11500 Crompton Greaves make Disconnectors have been put
into service in various environments in many countries since 2002 where
they are operating satisfactorily.
Our manufacturing units systems are certified with ISO 9001, ISO 14001
for environment control and OHSAS 18001.
The company has made considerable progress towards integration of the
six sigma Methodology in its manufacturing processes with the ultimate
aim of achieving ‘Product Quality as perceived by Customer’.
4) Earth switch assembly.
5) Support structure.
6) Terminal Connectors.
The Disconnector Features:
 CGL make disconnectors are SCADA compatible.
 Easy and convenient in installation and operation.
 In compliance with the new IEC-62271-102.
 Minimum Energy losses due to low contact resistance.
 Heavy duty life time lubricated sealed bearing.

This methodology was actively pursued for products for which Critical to  Proven design well accepted word wide.
