PCC Electrical Panel: The Heart of Your Power Distribution
Unrivaled Control, Uncompromised Safety, Uninterrupted Performance.
Product Overview
The Power Control Center (PCC) Electrical Panel is a critical component in industrial, commercial, and utility environments, serving as the central hub for managing and distributing electrical power to various loads. Designed for high-capacity applications, our PCC panels provide robust, reliable, and safe control over your entire electrical infrastructure, ensuring optimal operational efficiency and continuous power supply.
Our PCC panels are engineered to consolidate motor control, power distribution, and protection devices into a single, comprehensive, and modular unit. This reduces footprint, simplifies wiring, enhances safety, and streamlines maintenance, making them an indispensable asset for any facility requiring sophisticated power management.
Key Features & Capabilities
- Modular & Expandable Design:
- Individual, self-contained compartments for each feeder, allowing for easy expansion, modification, and maintenance without disrupting other sections.
- Draw-out and fixed-type configurations available for various application needs.
- Future-proof design accommodates growth and evolving power demands.
- Robust & Durable Construction:
- Fabricated from high-grade CRCA (Cold Rolled Close Annealed) steel or stainless steel for superior strength and corrosion resistance.
- Industrial-grade powder coating (epoxy/polyester) for enhanced durability and aesthetic appeal.
- High IP (Ingress Protection) ratings (e.g., IP42, IP54, IP65) available to protect against dust, water, and environmental contaminants.
- Advanced Busbar System:
- High-conductivity electrolytic copper or aluminum busbars, precisely sized for current ratings up to 6300 Amps.
- Fully shrouded and insulated busbar systems for enhanced safety and fault protection.
- Robust busbar supports to withstand high short-circuit forces.
- Comprehensive Protection & Control:
- Integration of leading-brand Air Circuit Breakers (ACBs), Moulded Case Circuit Breakers (MCCBs), Miniature Circuit Breakers (MCBs), and fuse-switch units.
- Advanced protective relays (overcurrent, earth fault, undervoltage, etc.) for fault detection and isolation.
- Surge Protection Devices (SPDs) to safeguard sensitive equipment from transient overvoltages.
- Built-in control circuitry for motor starting (DOL, Star-Delta, Soft Starters, VFDs) and other load management.
- Superior Safety Features:
- Segregation by metallic barriers (Form 3b, Form 4a, Form 4b as per IEC 61439-1&2) to minimize arc flash risks and enhance operator safety.
- Safety interlocks on doors and circuit breakers to prevent accidental operation.
- Dedicated earthing / ground busbar for comprehensive grounding of all metallic parts.
- Clear labeling and mimic diagrams for intuitive operation and maintenance.
- Intelligent Monitoring & Metering:
- Digital multi-function meters to display voltage, current, frequency, power factor, active/reactive power, and energy consumption.
- Optional integration with SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) and PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) systems for remote monitoring and control.
- Alarm annunciators and status indicators for immediate fault identification.
- Thermal Management:
- Adequate ventilation louvers, exhaust fans, or forced cooling systems to ensure optimal operating temperatures and prolong component life.
- Internal compartmentation to prevent heat transfer between sections.
- Ease of Installation & Maintenance:
- Ample cable termination space for easy and neat wiring.
- Front or rear access options for cabling and maintenance.
- Removable gland plates for flexible cable entry/exit.
