Are you asking about the rating for a specific type of 11kV switchgear, like its current rating or insulation rating?

by Expert-7 answered Sep 1, 2024

The current rating of 11kV switchgear can vary based on the manufacturer and specific design, but commonly, switchgear for 11kV systems is rated between 400A to 2000A. For higher power applications or more demanding environments, it can go beyond this range. It's essential to check the specifications provided by the manufacturer or the standards applicable to the particular switchgear being used.
