      Unwavering Performance & Safety: Premium Type Tested Panels

      In the demanding world of electrical infrastructure, compromise on safety and reliability is not an option. Our Type Tested Panels are engineered to provide unparalleled performance and peace of mind, ensuring the robust and safe operation of your critical power distribution systems. Designed and rigorously validated to meet the highest international standards, these panels represent the pinnacle of electrical safety and operational continuity.

      What is a Type Tested Panel?

      A "Type Tested Panel" refers to an assembly of low-voltage switchgear and controlgear (LV Switchgear & Controlgear Assemblies - LVSGCA) that has undergone a comprehensive series of stringent tests on a representative sample of its design. These tests, prescribed by standards like IEC 61439, verify the fundamental design integrity and performance under various conditions – including electrical, thermal, and mechanical stresses, as well as short-circuit withstand and internal arc fault containment. This ensures that every panel manufactured to this design will consistently deliver the same verified level of safety and performance.

      Key Features

      • Certified Design Integrity: Rigorously validated through independent third-party testing to comply with international standards, ensuring the design can withstand specified electrical, mechanical, and thermal stresses.
      • High Short-Circuit Withstand Capability: Engineered to safely manage and clear fault currents up to specified ratings, protecting personnel, equipment, and maintaining system stability during abnormal conditions.
      • Optimized Thermal Management: Superior ventilation and component layout ensure efficient heat dissipation, preventing component degradation, extending lifespan, and reducing energy losses.
      • Robust & Durable Construction: Manufactured from high-grade materials (e.g., mild steel, stainless steel, aluminum) with advanced surface finishes (e.g., powder coating, galvanization) to withstand harsh industrial and environmental conditions.
      • Internal Arc Fault Containment: Advanced designs and construction techniques minimize the risk and impact of internal arc faults, significantly enhancing personnel safety and limiting damage to the panel.
      • Modular & Scalable Design: Flexible and adaptable configurations allow for easy integration into diverse project requirements, with provisions for future expansion and modifications without compromising safety or performance.
      • Premium Component Integration: Utilizes only certified, high-quality circuit breakers, contactors, relays, meters, and other switchgear components from reputable, industry-leading manufacturers.
      • Superior Cable Management: Thoughtful routing, support, and termination provisions for power and control cabling, enhancing safety, simplifying maintenance, and reducing installation time.
      • Ergonomic Access & Maintenance: Designed for safe, convenient, and tool-friendly access to components for routine inspection, testing, and service, minimizing downtime.
      • High Degree of Protection (IP Rating): Available with various IP ratings (e.g., IP31 to IP65) to protect against dust, solid objects, and water ingress, suitable for diverse indoor and outdoor applications.
      • Form of Separation: Customizable internal segregation (up to Form 4b) to enhance safety, restrict fault propagation, and allow for live maintenance in isolated compartments.

      Benefits for Your Project

      • Unparalleled Safety: Minimizes risks to personnel and property by preventing catastrophic failures and effectively containing electrical faults.
      • Maximum Reliability & Uptime: Proven design integrity ensures consistent, predictable performance, significantly reducing unexpected outages and costly downtime.
