Larsen & Toubro today inaugurated its manufacturing facility for switchgear products at Vadodara, on an 18-acre plot adjacent to L&T Knowledge City. This is a capacity expansion initiative for the business of L&T's Electrical & Automation (E&A), leaders in low voltage switchgear in India. E&A will manufacture Air Circuit Breakers (ACBs) and Moulded Case Circuit Breakers (MCCBs) at this facility.

In an area of close to 27,000 sq metres under a single roof, the facility houses modules for the assembly lines for circuit breakers - ACBs and MCCBs - along with the shops for press working, moulding and tooling. A development centre to provide research, development and engineering for circuit breakers will also be located here
