Value for money, whatever the application

Type tested AND certified only!

Modular build - Plug-in - MINIMUM

foot print but not compromise cabling

Meters - need analogue and digital

options - digital must communicate!

Customers need locking facilities!!

fast delivery

Distribution

Must have full range of devices - ACBs

- MCCBs - Fused-switches - MCBs

(SP/TP + neutral links/4 pole)

Change-over and interlocks essential

CTs have to be incorporated in

structure - easy to fit even in service

Construction must be rigid - end frame

type best!!

Neutrals have to be fully rated

Cabling - has to be fast and easy, must

have plenty of space, access from front,

removable gland plates

MCCBs - want choice of toggle or rotary

handle

LV System wish list

Notes

Motor control and distribution

Modular build -

must incorporate motor control

and/or distribution as required -

including building services!!!

Arc-free design

safe to modify live - absolute

MUST HAVE

Outgoing fixed/withdrawable/

plug-in options

Compact starters - excellent

space usage - NB cabling must

still be easy

Conventional and intelligent

motor control essential

Shutters must be available for

withdrawable starters - PERIOD..

IP41 minimum, IP54 option

Plug-in devices essential for MCCs and switc
