Larsen & Toubro inaugurated a switchgear products manufacturing facility at Vadodara, Gujarat. Designed to enhance the company’s productivity by 2.5 times, the facility has been set up on an 18-acre plot adjacent to L&T Knowledge City.
L&T’s Electrical & Automation (E&A) would manufacture air circuit breakers (ACBs) and moulded case circuit breakers (MCCBs) at this facility.
In an area of close to 27,000 m2 under a single roof, the facility houses modules for the assembly lines for circuit breakers – ACBs and MCCBs – along with the shops for press working, moulding and tooling. The lines are equipped to produce circuit breakers of different frames and several ratings from 16A to 6,300A. L&T plans to locate a development centre to provide research, development and engineering for circuit breakers in the same facility.
