DISADVANTAGES OF GIS

Cost is high.
The life of GIS is affected by certain factors:
conductive particles.
The gas has been identified as
gas.

CONCLUSIONS

GIS is necessary for Extra HV for the wastage

space with AIS and the lifetime.
The principal parts in AIS is the same in GIS,
but the enclousere change and the characteristic
of construction is different.
Areas to be studied is improved gas handling
because is a special process.
