Abstract
In recent years, there has been a significant move to introduce innovation into substation equipment. This has been largely driven by manufacturers and solution providers in response to technical developments and commercial pressures. New innovative products have been introduced to the utilities, which can offer many benefits such as reduction of maintenance cost, ease of operation, and simplifying the substation design. In order to really benefit from these innovative products, the utilities may be required to revise their design philosophy and application standards.
