Product type
An electrical distribution board, also known as a panelboard or breaker panel, is a critical component in electrical systems that distributes electrical power to various circuits while providing overcurrent protection. Typically made from materials such as steel or plastic, these boards house circuit breakers or fuses that protect electrical circuits from overloads and short circuits. They are essential for ensuring safe and efficient power distribution in residential, commercial, and industrial settings.
| Material | Steel or plastic enclosures |
| Voltage rating | Up to 600V AC |
| Current rating | From 100A to 4000A |
| Number of circuits | Varies from 4 to 48 circuits |
| Mounting type | Surface or flush-mounted |
| Ingress protection rating | IP20 to IP65 |
When selecting an electrical distribution board, consider the total load requirements and the number of circuits needed for your application. Specify the voltage and current ratings to ensure compatibility with your electrical system. Additionally, inquire about the ingress protection rating if the board will be installed in a harsh environment. Certifications such as UL or IEC compliance may be relevant depending on your location and application. Always consider the quantity needed for your project to obtain accurate quotes.
