How to Choose the Right Distribution Cabinet? — A Complete Selection Guide Suomi
In power systems, distribution cabinets are critical for ensuring efficient power distribution. As a professional manufacturer of distribution cabinets, we often receive inquiries about choosing the right product. Today, we’ll provide a comprehensive guide to help you make an informed decision.
1. What is a Distribution Cabinet?
A distribution cabinet is a device used for electrical power distribution and control, commonly utilized in industrial, commercial, and residential settings. Its primary functions include:
Power distribution
Circuit protection
Equipment control
Based on voltage levels, distribution cabinets are typically categorized as:
Low-voltage distribution cabinets (
High-voltage distribution cabinets (>1000V)
2. Key Factors in Selecting a Distribution Cabinet
(1) Application Scenarios
Different scenarios require specific features:
Industrial environments: Designed for high-power equipment, typically using models like GCS or GGD.
Commercial buildings: Focus on aesthetics and energy efficiency.
Outdoor environments: Require high protection ratings (e.g., IP65) to guard against dust and water.
(2) Electrical Parameters
Ensure the cabinet meets your electrical system’s requirements:
Rated voltage (V): Match the system, such as 400V or 12kV.
Rated current (A): Calculate the required current based on the load power.
Short-circuit current (kA): Choose products with sufficient short-circuit strength to ensure safety.
(3) Functional Requirements
The functional modules vary based on usage needs, such as:
Control circuits
Protection devices
Power metering
(4) International Certifications
Ensure the cabinet complies with local regulations and standards, such as ISO9001 or CE certifications.
3. Common Types of Distribution Cabinets
Here’s a summary of common cabinet types, their features, and application scenarios:
Model | Applicable Voltage | Applications | Features |
GGD | Low-voltage | Factories, buildings | Stable performance, modular design |
GCS | Low-voltage | Motor control centers | Suitable for high-current scenarios |
KYN28 | High-voltage | Power utilities, substations | Reliable, easy to maintain |
XL-21 | Low-voltage | Small projects | Cost-effective, compact size |
