Connection details

All breakers are fitted as standard with terminals and nuts for direct connection with cable lugs. Cable spreaders are available as an optional extra to assist with larger cables.

Extension boxes are also available to give extra cabling space and are recommended with cables over 240mm sq.

The Mertech TPN Panelboards utilise a standard configuration allowing SP and TP MCCB's to be fitted to the fault rated busbar system. The boards fault level is determined by the incomer size:
Incomer               Icu
400-630A     =     45kA
800-1250A   =     50kA
Although outgoing breakers have a lower fault level they are protected to the level of the incomer by cascading protection. Outgoing breakers have fault ratings as follows:
Outgoer               Icu
16-100A     =       25kA
160-250A   =       36kA

MCCB's are manufactured to BS EN 60947-2
Ics = 100% Icu
Calibration Temp 40
o C.
Thermal adjustment (TP):
16A - 250 A  = 0.8 - 1 x In.
400A - 1250 A = 0.4 - 1 x In.
