Frequently asked questions
How do I choose a circuit breaker for an industrial circuit?
The rated current (In) must be chosen just above the calculated load current of the circuit, but below the maximum capacity of the cable. The tripping curve matters just as much: curve B for resistive loads without current peaks, curve C for mixed loads with moderate inductance (most industrial circuits) and curve D for loads with a very high inrush current - motors, transformers. Also check the breaking capacity (kA) required against the possible short-circuit current at the point of installation; a value that is too low leaves the breaker vulnerable to a real fault.
How do I choose the right size of contactor for a motor?
The contactor is chosen by utilisation category AC-3 (starting and stopping of induction motors in normal operation) and by the rated current of the motor. Category AC-3 covers the starting current, several times higher than the rated one. A contactor chosen strictly by rated current, without checking category AC-3, wears prematurely at the main contacts because of the electric arc generated at every start. For motors with frequent starts, a contactor one step above the strict theoretical calculation is usually chosen.
What does the IP rating of an electrical panel mean?
IP (Ingress Protection) consists of two digits: the first shows protection against the ingress of solids (dust, foreign bodies), from 0 to 6, and the second protection against liquids, from 0 to 9. An IP54 panel, usual in indoor industrial halls, protects against dust in limited quantity and against water splashes from any direction. For outdoor installation or water-jet washdown (food industry, treatment plants) at least IP65-IP66 is needed. Choosing an insufficient IP for the real environment leads to corrosion and premature failure of the internal components.
How do I choose the power of a variable frequency drive for an existing motor?
The drive is sized by the rated current of the motor, not just by the power in kW, because the efficiency of the motor and the real mains voltage influence the actual current. The overcurrent needed at start-up or under variable loads must also be taken into account (usually 150% for 60 seconds), especially in applications with high torque at low speed such as heavy conveyor belts. An undersized drive trips its protection at every start; an oversized one operates inefficiently at partial load and costs unjustifiably much.
What information do I include in the request for quotation for an electrical panel?
A single-line electrical diagram, even a simplified one, with the number of circuits and the current of each, speeds up the quotation most. In addition, we need the IP degree required for the installation environment, the supply voltage, whether the panel includes automation (PLC, drives) and the dimensions available for placement. For panels made to order, this data directly determines both the price and the execution time.
How long does delivery of electrical equipment and panels take?
For standard circuit breakers, contactors and relays, the lead time is 24–72 h when the item is available locally or at the supplier. Electrical panels with a diagram and components specific to the project are manufactured and delivered to order, usually 1–4 weeks, depending on complexity and the final testing before delivery; it can take longer depending on the brand and the specifications. For large projects, delivery in phases can be discussed, so that installation can start before the panel is fully completed.
