“Reclosers are the circuit breakers with automatic reclosing. Reclosers are used primarily for the protection of the electrical distribution network and grids. The North America recloser market is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 3.9% from 2014 to 2019, to reach $370.4 million by 2019. Even though the U.S. holds a largest share in the North America recloser market, which is primarily attractive for the triple single recloser segment, the Canadian segment is expected to grow at the fastest CAGR of 3.8% during the forecast period, 2014 to 2019. A majority of the growth in the U.S. market is expected to be driven by replacement of existing three phase reclosers by triple-single reclosers. The single phase recloser market is the fastest-growing market segment in Mexico, and is projected to grow at a CAGR of 3.0% from 2014 to 2019. The growth of the North America recloser market is expected to be driven by factors such as reliability, automatic restoration of power, customer outage cost reduction, and automation/ data collection. However, factors such as high procurement costs may restrain the growth of this market.
In this report, the North America recloser market has been broadly classified into phases, control, and country. The countries considered in analyzing the North American region thoroughly are the U.S., Canada, and Mexico. The recloser market, in terms of phase, is categorized into single phase reclosers, three phase reclosers, and triple single reclosers. The control segment is classified into electric control and hydraulic control.
North America (comprising the U.S., Canada, and Mexico) commanded the largest share of 40% of the global recloser market in 2014. The North America recloser market in the U.S. is primarily driven by factors including recloser efficiency, automated operation, and data collection. Replacement market in the U.S. is on the rise because of awareness of automated data collection and reduction in the time and cost because of the reclose. Mexico is still a developing country and hence, most of the commercial power transmission lines are three phase in nature. Hence, the Mexican recloser market is expected to grow primarily based on the growth of the three phase recloser segment.
The North America recloser market is a competitive market with a number of market players with niche technologies. Currently, the North America recloser market is dominated by top players such as ABB Ltd., Cooper Industries, and G&W Electric. New product launches, partnerships, agreements, collaborations, and joint ventures are the major strategies adopted by most market players to achieve growth in the North America recloser market.
