Grid Solutions
GE Grid Solutions focuses on solving power system challenges by combining advanced electrical equipment with digital technologies and services. Its offerings span the entire grid value chain—from planning and design to installation, operation, and maintenance—helping utilities build reliable, efficient, and low-carbon grids. Equipment Portfolio:
The equipment forms the physical backbone of GE’s grid solutions. Key categories include:
Transformers – Power and distribution transformers for voltage conversion and grid stability.
Switchgear – Gas-insulated (GIS) and air-insulated switchgear, circuit breakers, and protection devices.
Disconnectors & Instrument Transformers – For isolation, measurement, and system protection.
Capacitors & Reactors – Used for voltage control and reactive power compensation.
SERVICE: Consulting (Including Diagnostic) Field Services (Including Installation and Commissioning) Parts, Repair, & Workshop RME – Renovation, Modernisation, and Extension Training.
These components ensure safe, reliable, and efficient power flow across transmission and distribution networks.
Live Tank Circuit Breakers up to 800 kV
The GL series is safer and more reliable than previous circuit breaker designs. It offers a new generation of spring-spring operating mechanism that enables quick and easy onsite installation.
Dead Tank Circuit Breakers
Grid Solutions, a GE Vernova business, offers a comprehensive range of dead tank circuit breakers that support a voltage rating up to 550 kV, and are capable of carrying a continuous current up to 5,000 A. Our circuit breakers meet or exceed the latest IEEE/ANSI and IEC standards, including C2 and M2. They can be gang operated up to 245 kV, and Independent Pole Operation (IPO) is available at all voltage levels.
Generator Circuit Breakers
GE Vernova’s Generator Circuit Breakers (GCBs) are ideally suited for new and refurbished power plants from 50 MW to 1,500 MW and feature advanced technology with spring-spring-operated mechanisms. The comprehensive GCB portfolio provides solutions from generator circuit breakers without enclosure to customized solutions including disconnector, earthing switch, starting switch and instrument transformers.
HYpact
HYpact is a hybrid compact switchgear assembly that typically consists of circuit breakers, disconnectors, and earthing switches located in a common gas tank. Current and voltage transformers can be added and the standard SF6 to air bushings can be replaced with cable connectors. Its modular design allows for a large variety of different layout configurations and enables a more economical substation design.
DISCONNECTORS
GE Vernova’s Grid Solutions business prides itself on being one of the leading manufacturers of disconnectors (Switches) in the world. We offer flexible and reliable layout configurations up to 1,200 kV, designed and tested to support international standards such as IEEE, IEC and GB (China).
HVDC Disconnectors
Disconnectors (DSC) for HVDC applications are designed to specific constraints and requirements typical for DC applications, which are quite different compared to AC applications. They are requested to withstand DC voltage open gap and to ground to ensure safety for the people in the substation and to permit proper and safe layout configuration. In some cases, like for filter applications, they are requested to break a sum of harmonic currents at a certain voltage (amply smaller than the rated voltage of the disconnector) due to the ripple created by harmonics on the reactances.
Power Connectors
Power connectors join two or more conductors for the purpose of providing a continuous electrical path. GE Vernova offers tap, terminal, splice and non current carrying connectors.
Railway Disconnectors and Load Switches
The railway network has to be globally interconnected, and the connection between systems with different voltages and frequencies (electrical borders) can only be achieved through the disconnecting points that decouple them.
Disconnectors are an essential element of the supply systems (overhead conductors or ground-level wires) that feed the trains. Their function is to disconnect the cells that make up the line in order to supply energy only when a train is running.
High Voltage Instrument Transformers
Instrument Transformers are an essential link for the safe and efficient operation of transmission networks. They provide accurate and reliable current and voltage measurements for secondary equipment such as meters, protection relays, bay computers and other devices.
Lightweight, Flexible Mounting
Instrument Transformers are an essential link for the safe and efficient operation of transmission networks. They provide accurate and reliable current and voltage measurements for secondary equipment such as meters, protection relays, bay computers and other devices.
