A
transfer switch is an electrical equipment that switches load between two
power sources such as utility power and generator power. Transfer switches are
available in the manual or automatic forms. Transfer switches provide quick
transition between two or more power sources which helps in uninterrupted power
supply if any of the power sources goes off.
The global transfer switch market is very mature and has grown significantly since its
inception. Transfer switches are used in various industrialand residential
setups. Transfer switches are also available in automatic mode which has
further improved its usage and practicality. Transfer switches have a huge
market in Asia Pacific, North America and Europe. Middle East, Latin America
and Africa also have a growing market for transfer switches.
The global transfer switches market can be segmented on the basis of
type, transition mode, and geography. The different types of transfer switches
include automatic transfer switches and manual transfer switches.Automatic
transfer switch constantly monitors the supply power and instantly switches
when it senses shortage or variation in power. Automatic transfer switches are
most commonly used transfer switches.In manual transfer switch, an operator
effects the transition by changing a switch. Transfer switches are segmented on
the basis of various transition modes such as open transition, closed
transition, delayed transition, and soft load transition. An open transition
transfer switch breaks contactwith one source of power before it makes contact
with another source of power. Whereas, closed transition transfer switches
simultaneously makes contact with another power sources before breaking from
it. Closed transition transfer switches are useful for applications requiring
zero interruption of power. Delayed
transition transfer switch disconnects from one source and then pauses before
it connects to the alternate source. Soft loading transition transfer switch
synchronizes generator power with the utility power before switching between
alternate power sources.
Asia Pacific including countries such as Japan, South Korea, India and
China has the largest market share of global transfer switches. Developing
countries such as China and India are boosting the transfer switches market.North
America and Europe also have a huge market for transfer switches. Countries
such as the U.S, Germany, U.K, France and Canada have huge market share of
transfer switches market. Middle East, Latin America and Africa are expected to
have a decent share of transfer switches market in the coming decade.
The demand for transfer switches is growing due to abundant
applications in different end use sectors. Global transfer switches market
growth is reliant on the growth of power utilities and generator backed power
supply.Transfer switches are used in industrial, commercial and residential
facilities. Industrial usage of transfer switches is very high. Thus, growing
industrial, commercial and residential activities will further boost the demand
for transfer switches. In developing countries, power distribution
infrastructure is still not perfect, which has led to rise in demand for
transfer switches in these countries.
However, lack of awareness among developing regions and the need for
regular maintenance could hamper the growth of transfer switch market. Rising
demand for uninterrupted power and adoption of smart grid technology across the
globe provides a good growth opportunity for transfer switches market. Hence,
excellent growth trajectory is predicted for transfer switches market during
the forecast period.
