LT Panel / Feeder Pillar Control Panel: The Heart of Reliable Low Tension Power Distribution

Product Overview

The LT Panel, also widely known as a Feeder Pillar Control Panel, is a critical component in low-tension (LT) electrical distribution systems. It serves as a centralized point for receiving, distributing, controlling, and protecting electrical power within a facility or a specific distribution network. Designed for robustness and reliability, these panels are essential for ensuring safe, efficient, and uninterrupted power supply to various loads in industrial, commercial, residential, and public infrastructure applications.

Our LT Panels/Feeder Pillars are custom-engineered solutions, built to withstand challenging environments while complying with the highest safety and performance standards.

Key Features

• Robust Enclosure: Constructed from high-quality CRCA (Cold Rolled Cold Annealed) steel or Stainless Steel, meticulously fabricated and powder-coated (typically RAL 7032 or as per client requirement) for superior corrosion resistance and longevity. Available with various IP (Ingress Protection) ratings (e.g., IP54, IP55, IP65) suitable for indoor and outdoor installations.
• High-Performance Circuit Breakers: Incorporates leading brands of Air Circuit Breakers (ACBs) for main incomers and Molded Case Circuit Breakers (MCCBs) or Miniature Circuit Breakers (MCBs) for outgoing feeders, ensuring reliable overload, short-circuit, and earth fault protection.
• Efficient Busbar System: Utilizes high-conductivity electrolytic copper or aluminum busbars, strategically designed and adequately rated for the maximum fault level and continuous current, ensuring minimal power loss and efficient current distribution.
• Advanced Metering & Monitoring: Equipped with precision digital or analog meters (Voltmeter, Ammeter, Frequency Meter, Power Factor Meter, Energy Meter – kWh) to provide real-time monitoring of electrical parameters. Smart meters with communication capabilities (Modbus, Ethernet) can be integrated for remote monitoring and energy management.
• Comprehensive Protection Relays: Features state-of-the-art protection relays for advanced protection schemes, including overcurrent, earth fault, undervoltage, overvoltage, and phase sequence protection.
• Control & Automation: Can include contactors, timers, and PLCs for automated control sequences, motor starting, or integration with Building Management Systems (BMS) or SCADA systems.
• User-Friendly Design: Designed for ease of operation and maintenance with clear labeling, accessible components, and ample wiring space. Front or rear access options are available.
• Superior Cable Management: Provides generous space for cable entry and exit, complete with gland plates for proper cable termination and sealing, minimizing stress on connections.
• Safety Features: Incorporates essential safety measures such as proper earthing, phase segregation, insulation barriers, safety interlocks, and emergency stop push buttons.
• Modular & Customizable: Highly customizable to meet specific client requirements regarding voltage, current ratings, number of feeders, protection schemes, and physical dimensions.
