Switchgear Monitoring System Global Market Report 2026

A switchgear monitoring system is a technology-driven solution created to oversee, control, and optimize the performance of electrical switchgear equipment within power distribution systems. Its purpose is to enhance the management, safety, and overall performance of electrical switchgear equipment in power distribution systems.

Switchgear monitoring systems consist of three primary components such as hardware, software, and services. Hardware refers to the physical elements of an electrical system required for its operation or for executing specific functions. The hardware elements utilized in switchgear monitoring systems encompass components such as fuses, relays, circuit breakers, potential and current transformers, isolators, indicating devices, and lightning arresters. These systems employ various monitoring techniques, including temperature monitoring, partial discharge monitoring, and gas monitoring, among others, to oversee switchgear equipment at high, medium, and low voltage levels. These monitoring systems find extensive applications in utilities, industries, commercial settings, and other relevant sectors.

Note that the outlook for this market is being affected by rapid changes in trade relations and tariffs globally. The report will be updated prior to delivery to reflect the latest status, including revised forecasts and quantified impact analysis. The report's Recommendations and Conclusions sections will be updated to give strategies for entities dealing with the fast-moving international environment.

Tariffs on electronic components, sensors, controllers and communication modules have increased production and procurement costs for switchgear monitoring systems, affecting manufacturers across utilities, industrial and commercial sectors. Regions dependent on imported hardware from East Asia, particularly North America and Europe, face higher cost burdens and slower deployment cycles. However, tariffs are also encouraging domestic component manufacturing, system integration and local R&D initiatives, resulting in selective long term opportunities for regional suppliers and technology developers.

The growth in electricity demand is expected to drive the expansion of the switchgear monitoring system market. Electricity demand refers to the amount of electricity consumed by a country, region, or sector over a specific period. Switchgear monitoring systems are used to assess the condition of switchgear assets such as transformers and substations. As electricity demand increases, the use of switchgear also rises, and monitoring systems help ensure the reliability and proper functioning of these critical assets. For example, in 2024, according to Ember-Energy.org, a UK-based independent global energy think tank, data center electricity demand-estimated at 176 TWh in 2023-is projected to grow by 8-55 TWh in 2024, representing an increase of 5%-31%. Therefore, the growth in electricity demand is fueling the development of the switchgear monitoring system market.

Major players in the switchgear monitoring system market are focusing on the development of innovative solutions, such as medium voltage (MV) switchgear monitoring systems, to enhance reliability, optimize performance, and reduce maintenance costs. MV switchgear monitoring systems are used to track the performance and condition of switchgear within electrical networks. These systems monitor key parameters like temperature, current, and voltage to ensure safe and efficient operation, as well as enable predictive maintenance. For example, in February 2024, Schneider Electric SE, a France-based company, introduced the SureSeT Medium Voltage (MV) switchgear. Schneider Electric's SureSeT MV switchgear features a compact design that reduces the CO2 footprint by 25% and integrates digital operations for real-time monitoring, predictive maintenance, and improved operational efficiency. The solution is optimized to save space and enhance uptime through advanced condition monitoring and remote access.
