Gas Insulator Substation Overview by swati is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The document discusses gas insulated substations (GIS). A GIS uses sulfur hexafluoride (SF6) gas as the insulating medium inside enclosed metal compartments housing high-voltage equipment like circuit breakers, busbars, isolators, etc. SF6 has excellent dielectric properties allowing it to insulate at moderate pressures. GIS take up less space than conventional air insulated substations and are thus suitable for urban/indoor installations. While more expensive initially, GIS require less maintenance and hav
