LV Switchboard: The Intelligent Heart of Your Electrical Distribution
Our Low Voltage (LV) Switchboards are engineered to be the central nervous system of your electrical infrastructure, providing robust, reliable, and intelligent control over power distribution, protection, and monitoring. Designed for critical industrial, commercial, and utility applications, these switchboards ensure maximum operational efficiency, safety, and continuity of supply.
Overview
The LV Switchboard is a comprehensive assembly of electrical components, including circuit breakers, disconnect switches, busbars, and control devices, all housed within a secure, custom-engineered enclosure. It serves to distribute power from a main incoming supply to various loads, offering essential protection against overloads, short circuits, and ground faults, while enabling sophisticated power management and control.
