The world of switchgear has long needed a dedicated voice, a platform to share advancements, connect professionals, and document the innovations driving our industry forward. Launching a magazine dedicated solely to switchgear means establishing a one-of-a-kind platform: a place where engineers, manufacturers, and industry leaders can finally connect, breaking down the silos that so often isolate companies and ideas.
Switchgear Magazine exists not only to educate and inform but also to fill a void by creating a channel that simply didn’t exist. As the only print publication focused exclusively on switchgear and substations, it stands to serve as a platform for companies to communicate, share knowledge, and learn from each other. Such collaboration is crucial to address the multi-faceted challenges to our industry: unique stresses to the grid and substations by the greening of the grid (adding renewable energy sources and removing the most potent greenhouse gas, SF6) coupled with an ageing infrastructure. And if that were not enough, we have a serious shortage of talent.
In these pages, we envision conversations that wouldn’t happen elsewhere, exchanges that dig into the real technical challenges and opportunities in switchgear—letting engineers talk shop, unfiltered, about the nuts and bolts, the troubleshooting, and the innovations pushing our field forward. Switchgear Magazine publicizes exciting new developments – including cyber developments such as the Internet of Things (IoT) and Artificial Intelligence (AI), which will attract young engineers.
Beyond mere information, Switchgear Magazine will serve a deeper purpose: to nurture a genuine community. By connecting voices across the industry, we’ll offer space not just for reporting news but for analyzing it, delivering valuable insights that transcend basic facts and delve into the why and how behind industry trends. This magazine is a tool for companies, providing real-world solutions, case studies, and best practices that drive value and demonstrate the impact switchgear has on modern power systems.
