g³ is an alternative to SF6 for electrical switchgear, developed and patented by GE Vernova. It is a mixture of CO2, O2 and an additive, C4F7N, produced by Climalife under GE Vernova’s specifications. The g3 gas mixture reduces the impact of the gas on global warming by 99% compared with SF6 resulting in a significant reduction of greenhouse gas emissions. This new insulating and switching solution is suitable for the development of a new generation of high- and ultra-high voltage metal-enclosed switchgear. Equipment using g3 maintains the same dimensions and performance as those working with SF6.

The g3 gas mixture is available in four versions. Follow the recommendations of the equipment manufacturer to select the correct one:

  • g3-C4-FN-40-00
  • g3-C4-FN-60-05
  • g3-C4-FN-35-13
  • g3-C4-FN-50-13
