Safety technical requirements for high and low voltage distribution cabinets and distribution boxes

The distribution box is a large number of parameters in the data. Generally, it constitutes a low-voltage forest. According to electrical wiring, it is required to assemble switchgear, measuring instruments, protective appliances and auxiliary equipment in a closed or semi-enclosed metal cabinet or screen to form low-voltage power distribution. box. During normal operation, the circuit can be turned on or off by means of a manual or automatic switch.

  The distribution box has the characteristics of small size, easy installation, special technical performance, fixed location, unique configuration function, not restricted by the site, universal application, stable and reliable operation, high space utilization, small footprint and environmental protection effect.

The thickness of the backplane is not less than 3.0mm. The guide rail must be strong, and the structure of the power distribution cabinet should be complete and firm. At the same time, two receiving ears are welded on the lower left corner and upper right corner of the back of the non-floor power distribution box. The receiving ears are made of 40*4 flat steel with a length of 10cm. The connection method and assembly location of the internal electrical components of the box (cabinet) are reasonable, and the number, size, shape and installation method of the box (cabinet) must meet the requirements of the national standards, atlases, and design drawings. The reserved openings or knock-out holes for the incoming and outgoing lines should have corresponding seals to ensure that the three-level sealing requirements are met after the incoming and outgoing lines are assembled.

The welding and bolt connection of the distribution box (cabinet) should be firm, and the welding seam should be uniform, smooth, without welding skin, welding penetration, pores, etc.; the bolt connection should have flat, spring washers, and exposed threaded buckles 2-5 buckle. The internal parts and edges of the openings of the distribution box (cabinet) should be smooth and free of burrs and cracks. The movable parts of the box (cabinet) are open and flexible. The coating or plating shall not be damaged during the opening and closing process. The opening angle shall not be less than 90 degrees. The door lock shall be concealed.
