Cabinet Body:

The cabinet body is manufactured of galvanized profile, thickness 2mm.

Structurally, the transport section of Low Voltage Switchboard is a metal cabinet (or several cabinets) consisting of a frame mounted on a base, partitions, panels with equipment, busbars on insulators and an external removable panels and doors. All elements are powder-painted: elements, panels and doors – RAL 7035, and base – RAL 9005.

Standard model has natural ventilation. To ensure air circulation, vent holes are provided on the top and bottom of the cabinet. Upon customer’s request, forced circulation and heating system is installed.

To release excessive pressure, i.e. in case of arcing, the special valves are provided on the top cover of Low Voltage Switchboard.

Bus Duct:

Low Voltage Switchboard is equipped with busbar made of high-quality oxygen free electrical copper. The busbar system is ensured by standard embedded elements to create any configuration circuits up to 6,300A.

The busbar system consists of several copper bus strips at each phase. This ensures the optimal cooling during operation, as well as increased performance.

Busbars are located on the top, Phase A, B, C, N (PEN).

Bottom busbar position, PE, at front or rear of the cabinet

Busbar Rated Peak Value (Ipk) up to 220kA
