Meet the demands for energy distribution, while optimizing space
Gas Insulated Switchgears and substations (GIS) were designed to overcome the limitations of air and oil insulated power systems. GIS requires only 10% of the clearance specified for phase to phase and phase to ground for all equipment; and is widely considered to be safer, more reliable and requires less maintenance than air or oil insulated systems. As a result, it has become the go-to solution in increasingly complex power distribution grids, grids that are close to populated centers, limited by natural boundaries or be in close proximity to existing power distribution networks.
Our decades of experience, diversity of projects and safety record make us GIS-experts
The Mall of San Juan, Barrio Martin Peña, Palo Seco Power Plant, Covadonga Substation, Aguas Buenas, Barrio Piña Substation, these are a just a few of the over a dozen gas insulated switchgear projects LORD has installed in Puerto Rico alone. With over three decades of experience working with gas instulated switchgears and substations (GIS), LORD brings to any project a depth of expert knowledge that sets us apart among electrical contractors.
