Electricity sector has a large demand for electrical instrumentation

Driven by the transformation of the national urban and rural power grids, the domestic electrical instrumentation market is undergoing a series of changes. Analysis of the needs of the domestic market Electrician instrumentation product application surface is extremely wide, the power sector is the largest user of electrical instrumentation products. The analysis report from the electric power materials department pointed out: At present, in the field of energy metering instruments and systems, the user demand is mainly based on the 86 series induction meter, and the demand for the electronic meter (mainly single-phase) is expected to increase significantly. space.

The market's demand for precision meters will tend to shrink, and the overall demand for portable meters will also decrease. The requirements for this product are mainly focused on the appearance of the instrument, structural design, expansion of application areas, and improvement of reliability. The focus of digital instrument development is to improve reliability.

Demand Forecast and Price Trends Currently, the domestic production capacity of electrical instrumentation products has been seriously excessive, and the entire industry is in a state of low profit. However, the cost-effectiveness of some high-tech products (such as electronic energy meters, etc.) will have a clear competitive advantage over older products.

Data shows that in the next few years, the annual demand for electrical instrumentation products in the domestic market will remain at around 60 million units (sets). Among them, the power sector needs 54 million units (sets), and other departments need 6 million units (sets). From the perspective of product structure, there are 48 million electric energy meter products, 7 million electric energy meter products, 2.5 million portable energy meters, 1.5 million digital instruments, and 1 million other meters. The demand structure of various types of products is also changing. The proportion of electronic energy meters in electric energy meter products will gradually increase from the 2 million units in the early period of the “10th Five-Year Plan” period to 12 million units in the final stage. The technical content of installed meters, portable meters, and digital meters will also increase, and product levels will continue to increase. Therefore, although the total annual product demand will not change much in recent years, the total sales volume will continue to increase. The annual growth rate is expected to be 8%.
