New SP&N distribution boards from Hager

6th August 2012


Hager has launched a new range of SP&N distribution boards that makes it easier to meet the needs of the 17th Edition for commercial installations.

 

Designed to match the company’s Invicta 3 range of panel and TP&N boards, it is one of the few available with a glazed door. This allows an ‘ordinary person’ as defined by the 17th Edition to view the board while the door is locked. A ‘skilled’ or ‘instructed person, can then access the board with a key.

 

There is also plenty of wiring space and the position and design of the earth and neutral bars allows easier wiring – an important feature for fitting RCBOs, which are longer then MCBs. The neutral and terminal bars will accept up to 25mm2 incoming and 16mm2 outgoing cable.

 

Says Chris Howells, product manager for Hager: “The 17th Edition means that commercial installations need more RCBOs and/or RCD protection. With most installations having a lot of electrical equipment such as PCs, printers or photocopiers there are typically a number of circuits that need separate RCD or more commonly RCBO protection. These SP&N distribution boards have been designed with this in mind.”

 

The new range is available in four sizes; a 14 way board with a 100A incomer, a 10 way split load board with 100A switch disconnector and 63A 30mA RCCB, and two dual row boards with 20 and 28 module outgoing ways. All of the boards have a number of knockouts allowing cable entry or exit on all sides and from the back. A number of DIN rail enclosures are also available for control devices.
