Peaton Electricals Secures CPRI Nod for 11 kV Busduct

Ahmedabad (Gujarat) [India], November 28: Power & Instrumentation (Gujarat) Limited (PIGL) (NSE: PIGL, BSE: 543912), 

Power & Instrumentation (Gujarat) Limited (PIGL), a prominent player in India’s electrical contracting and infrastructure development sector, has announced that its subsidiary, Peaton Electricals Company Limited, has received formal approval from the Central Power Research Institute (CPRI), Govindpura, Bhopal, for its 11 kV, 3000 Amp segregated phase busduct system.

The certification marks a significant achievement for the company, as CPRI serves as the national authority responsible for evaluating, testing, and certifying electrical equipment for reliability, safety, and performance. With this approval, Peaton Electricals’ busduct system is now validated for deployment across critical and high-capacity power infrastructure projects nationwide.

A busduct system is an advanced solution for efficiently and securely transferring large volumes of electrical power. Unlike traditional cable-based systems that require multiple heavy conductors, a busduct employs enclosed metal busbars that streamline power transmission. A segregated phase busduct further enhances safety by ensuring that each electrical phase is housed within separate compartments, minimising heating issues, reducing the risk of electrical faults, and improving overall system stability.

Key Advantages of the Segregated Phase Busduct System

• Enhanced Safety: Each phase is individually isolated, significantly reducing the risk of short circuits, overheating, or accidental contact.

• Higher Efficiency: The enclosed conductor design ensures lower transmission losses, improving overall power delivery performance.

• Extended Life & Easier Maintenance: The structured layout enables faster inspections, reduced wear and tear, and simplified upkeep.

• Space Efficiency: Busducts require considerably less installation space than conventional cable systems, making them ideal for industrial plants, data centres, commercial complexes, and power stations.

With an 11 kV, 3000 Amp rating, the approved busduct system is engineered to serve high-demand environments where reliable, stable, and high-capacity power distribution is mission-critical. This includes manufacturing facilities, utilities, infrastructure projects, and large commercial establishments.

The achievement further strengthens PIGL’s product portfolio and reinforces the company’s commitment to delivering dependable, innovative, and performance-driven power distribution solutions to clients across India.

Commenting on the milestone, Mr Padmaraj Padmnabhan Pillai, Managing Director of Power & Instrumentation (Gujarat) Limited, said:

“We are pleased with the CPRI approval for our 11 kV, 3000 Amp segregated phase busduct system. This certification strengthens our product portfolio and supports our efforts to deliver safe, reliable, and high-quality power distribution solutions. It also opens up new opportunities for PIGL in upcoming industrial and infrastructure projects, helping us serve our customers with greater confidence and expand our presence in the power equipment segment.”
