Turkey stands at the crossroads of Europe and Asia, serving as a vital energy hub. With the rapid expansion of Organized Industrial Zones (OSB) and the booming demand for data centers in Istanbul and Ankara, the Turkish power grid is undergoing a massive transformation. The shift from Air Insulated Switchgear (AIS) to Gas Insulated Switchgear (GIS) is no longer a luxury but a strategic necessity due to urban land constraints and harsh environmental conditions.
In Turkey’s dense metropolitan areas, GIS solutions provide up to a 70% reduction in footprint compared to traditional AIS, allowing substations to be integrated into commercial buildings or underground facilities.
Given Turkey's seismic activity, our GIS structures are engineered with reinforced frames and high dielectric integrity, ensuring power continuity even during geological tremors.
Our Gas Insulated Switchgear is specifically designed to meet the technical requirements of TEİAŞ (Turkish Electricity Transmission Corporation) and local distribution companies like BEDAŞ or AYEDAŞ. Key application areas include:
Dongguan Zago Electric Co., Ltd. is a professional electrical switchgear manufacturer specializing in low-voltage switchgear, medium-voltage switchgear, and integrated power distribution solutions for industrial, commercial, utility, and infrastructure applications. Established in 2011 and located in Dongguan, Guangdong Province, China, we combine the efficiency of the world’s most robust supply chain with European-grade quality standards.
Procuring GIS from our Dongguan facility offers several strategic advantages for Turkish importers and EPC contractors:
As the "Search Intent" for electrical engineering shifts toward sustainability, Turkish utilities are increasingly looking for Eco-GIS. This involves replacing SF6—a potent greenhouse gas—with alternative gases like N2/O2 mixtures or C4-Fluoroketones. Our R&D team is at the forefront of this shift, ensuring that Turkish exporters stay ahead of future environmental regulations.
The integration of IEC 61850 communication protocols within GIS is the next frontier. By incorporating digital sensors and optical voltage/current transformers, Turkish grid operators can achieve predictive maintenance, reducing downtime in critical areas like the Istanbul Financial Center.
Zago Electric operates a modern manufacturing facility covering more than 12,000 square meters and employs over 220 skilled professionals. The company combines research and development, electrical engineering, precision manufacturing, quality assurance, and technical support to deliver reliable power distribution equipment for diverse industries.
Our comprehensive portfolio includes low-voltage switchgear, medium-voltage switchgear, power distribution panels, motor control centers, and intelligent electrical control systems. These are widely used in manufacturing plants, commercial buildings, renewable energy projects, transportation infrastructure, and data centers across the globe, from Europe to Latin America.
