ABB head of power products division Bernhard Jucker said "By expanding our extensive manufacturing footprint in India, we can provide customers with an extended offering as well as deliver fast and cost-effective solutions suited to local needs."
The facilities will produce high-voltage gas-insulated switchgear and plug and switch system hybrid switchgear, as well as dry-type and oil immersed distribution transformers.
ABB`s plug and switch system is a hybrid switchgear solution that combines air- and gas-insulated technologies.
The new oil immersed transformer factory will extend the distribution transformer range by up to 10 megavolt amperes.
The facilities are to be set up by the end of this year.
