The company will highlight 765 kV‑ready solutions, the LineDefender single‑phase recloser, motor‑operated AIS switchgear, and its latest acquisition.
SHELTON, Conn., April 16, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- As utilities modernize the grid to support electrification, reliability, and long‑term economic growth, Hubbell Incorporated will highlight how it creates critical infrastructure solutions that electrify and energize communities at the IEEE PES T&D Conference & Expo, May 4–7, 2026, in Chicago.
At the event, Hubbell will showcase an integrated portfolio of transmission and distribution solutions designed to support utilities across the full range of voltage classes and applications—from distribution automation to ultra‑high‑voltage (UHV) transmission. The company's system‑level approach helps utilities plan, build, and operate resilient power networks while delivering reliability, safety, and performance.
"Utilities choose partners with a demonstrated history of quality, reliability, and performance," said Gregory Gumbs, segment president, Hubbell Utility Solutions. "Hubbell's long‑standing relationships across the utility industry reflect our commitment to engineering excellence, responsiveness and continuous innovation. That foundation allows us to support critical infrastructure across transmission and distribution with confidence and consistency."
Engineered Solutions for System-Wide UHV Applications
Hubbell partners with utilities to deliver engineered‑to‑order solutions designed specifically for the unique electrical, mechanical, and environmental challenges of ultra-high frequency, 765 kV applications.
Our 765 kV‑ready portfolio spans transmission and substation components—including arresters, switches, and TowerPak® kits that combine hardware assemblies, connectors, and insulators into a single, integrated solution to maximize system performance.
Hubbell's 765 kV, UHV arresters and switches allow utilities to manage extreme voltage levels as well as high‑frequency electrical phenomena like corona and radio-influence voltage that become more pronounced as voltages increase.
Expanded Capabilities Through DMC Power
Hubbell will also welcome its newest acquisition, DMC Power, to the conference, with its products highlighting advanced high‑voltage connectors and tooling solutions that enhance Hubbell's ability to serve transmission and distribution customers.
