The vacuum segment led the DC circuit breaker market in 2019. High insulating strength, suitability for repeated operations, & low maintenance cost are expected to drive the vacuum DC circuit breaker market. Also, rising investments in electrification projects, in which vacuum technologies are highly deployed encourages players to invest in the DC circuit breaker. They are mainly used in medium voltage ranging from 11 kV to 33 kV. They have a long mechanical service life. They are fast in operation; hence are ideal for fault clearing. Further, they are also safe as they do not explode, have a noiseless operation, are eco-friendly, and have a very minimal maintenance cost. They mainly find application in switchgears, transformers, power conditioning systems, switching devices, and transformers.

In this report, the DC circuit breaker market has been analyzed with respect to 5 regions, namely, Asia Pacific, North America, Europe, South America, and the Middle East & Africa. Asia Pacific led the global DC circuit breaker market in 2018. The high growth rate in the Asia Pacific region can be attributed to increased investments in the electric grid development and growing reliance on renewable sources of power generation. China and India are the largest markets for DC circuit breaker market in the region. Increasing grid investments and plans for electrification in remote areas in countries such as Vietnam, Indonesia, and the Philippines is likely to drive the growth of the DC circuit breaker market in the region during the forecast period. Rise in investments in smart grid technologies is another factor which is driving the DC circuit breaker market in Asia Pacific.
