Main Distribution Board (MDB)

A switchboard is a large single panel, frame, or assembly of panels on which are accessed from front, rear or both sides. They are generally installed immediately after the power source (transformers or generators).

MDB is designed and tested as per the new IEC standard 61439-1,2. This panel is available up to 6300A, 100kA/ 1 sec, Form 4b.

Low Voltage Switchboards are mainly used for electrical power distribution

and control.

  • RAL7035 color is standard, other colors can be provided upon
  • Neutral and earth busbars can be rated up to 100% of the main
  • Optimized solution with compact design provides 6300A in 800mm depth
