Restructuring and Related Activities [Abstract]  
RESTRUCTURING CHARGES AND SEPARATION COSTS RESTRUCTURING CHARGES AND SEPARATION COSTS
Restructuring and Other Charges. The Company has undertaken or committed to various restructuring initiatives, including workforce
reductions and the consolidation of manufacturing and service facilities. Restructuring and other charges primarily include employee-related
termination benefits associated with workforce reductions, facility exit costs, asset write-downs, and cease-use costs. We expect the
majority of costs to be incurred within two years of the commitment of a restructuring initiative.
This table is inclusive of all restructuring charges and the charges are shown below for the business where they originated. Separately, in
our reported segment results, major restructuring programs are excluded from measurement of segment operating performance for internal
and external purposes; those excluded amounts are reported in Restructuring and other charges. See Note 24 for further information.

Total restructuring and other charges incurred for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025 primarily relate to
programs to simplify the organizational structure of, reduce operating costs in, and to right-size the businesses. The costs for the three and
nine months ended September 30, 2026 also include costs of $9 million and $77 million, respectively, related to the acquisition and
integration of the remaining 50% stake of Prolec GE in our Electrification segment. On July 21, 2025, we approved a restructuring plan (the
Plan) accelerating previously announced enterprise transformation activities to reduce general and administrative costs. We have incurred
$172 million of costs in connection with the Plan primarily consisting of termination benefits associated with a reduction in the workforce,
with $134 million of the costs resulting in cash expenditures. In the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, we incurred $(8)
million and $28 million, respectively, of costs related to the Plan, which is now substantially complete.
Separation Costs. In connection with the separation from GE, the Company recognized separation costs of $31 million and $43 million for
the three months ended and $92 million and $122 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively, in our
Consolidated Statement of Income (Loss). Separation costs include system implementations, advisory fees, one-time stock option grant,
and other one-time costs, which are primarily recorded in Selling, general, and administrative expenses.
