Switches and gears. Any other questions?

Seriously, iIt's an assembly of switches, circuit breakers, protection and control components, and interconnecting conductors. It's primary purpose is to distribute and control electrical energy. Switchgear comes in many types, shapes and sizes depending on the application.
