Oil Immersed Starters

Oil Immersed Starters use oil-filled, sulphur hexafluoride (SF6) gas-insulated switchgear to protect against arcs and sparks during the switching process. This type of starter is primarily used in industrial and commercial settings, such as factories and power plants, where high levels of power are required. The oil-filled switchgear helps ensure that the system is protected from dangerous electrical arcs during start-up and operation. The switchgear is also used to protect against power outages due to short circuits.
