LV Distribution Boards & Consumer Units
An Introduction to Eaton
Eaton is a global technology leader in electrical
components and systems for power quality, distribution and control;
hydraulics components, systems and services for industrial and
mobile equipment; aerospace fuel, hydraulics and pneumatic systems
for commercial and military use; and truck and automotive drivetrain
and powertrain systems for performance, fuel economy and safety.
Eaton has approximately 70,000 employees and sells products to
customers in more than 150 countries.
Once known as a vehicle components supplier,
Eaton has diversified to include a broader industrial and commercial
focus. Today, Eaton's businesses comprise five distinct segments:
Electrical, Hydraulics, Aerospace, Truck and Automotive.
With All our Energy
The statement Powering Business Worldwide defines
our strength as a global enterprise and leading power management
company. Eaton delivers and manages the power inside thousands of
products – from manufacturing plants, hospitals, airport terminals,
data centers and homes to aircraft, trucks, cars, oil rigs and even
the Panama Canal locks.
Moeller Becomes Eaton – a Winning Fusion
Moeller is now part of Eaton – a new player in
electrical engineering is developing.
Both brands have a great deal in common. With
numerous benefits for our customers. After all, as an international
key player we jointly endeavor to be the best supplier – and to
offer distinct and high-quality products, services and solutions
anywhere in the world.
Continuous Innovation
The power of innovation and product quality which
have distinguished Moeller for many decades will be continued and
further increased by Eaton.
They will be complemented by the know-how and the
presence, safety and power of innovation which only a leading
technology corporation can offer. We seek to meet highest
expectations in every field.
Electrical Sector
Energy management and power distribution
solutions as well as power quality in buildings and industrial
plants in all industry sectors ensure that electric energy can be
used reliably, as needed, and in a way that is environmentally
sound. Moeller fits seamlessly into Eaton’s Electrical Sector. With
its IEC products, it is becoming a fixed entity in the distribution
of electric energy, supplying efficient solutions for industry
automation. Everything from one source in the future – from Eaton.
The Eaton Business System
The Eaton Business System provides the foundation
for a high-performance culture through an integrated operating
system. The Eaton Business System converts the power of many into
the power of one Eaton, encompassing the core values, policies and
processes used to conduct business and continually measure, assess
and improve performance.
Sub-Load Metering
With the latest range of enclosed meterpacks from
Eaton’s Electrical Sector, sub-load check metering facilities can be
added easily and conveniently to almost any new or existing
electrical distribution installation. The meterpacks provide an
ideal way of satisfying the growing demand for detailed metering of
electricity usage as an aid to saving energy and to meeting the
requirements of Part L2 of the Building Regulations.
Eaton’s meterpacks comprise a multifunction
MID-compliant digital meter with its associated CTs, and convenient
studs for bolted lug “in and out” connections, all ready assembled
and wired in a rugged industrial steel enclosure. No time consuming
assembly or wiring is, therefore, required on site and, as every
meterpack is fully tested prior to despatch, correct operation is
guaranteed.
Easy installation is ensured by removable steel
top and bottom gland plates, and by the provision of ample space
within the enclosures for cabling.
The meterpacks can be supplied with meters that
offer pulsed outputs, or both pulsed and RS 485 (Modbus) outputs,
thereby allowing easy interfacing with almost any type of energy or
building management system. Pulse-only versions are available to
suit loads up to 400 A, while pulse plus RS 485 versions have a
maximum rating of 320 A.
Enclosure type and size depends on the meter
rating. The 400 A and 320 A versions use enclosures that are uniform
with those of Eaton’s MEM series of Glasgow distribution products,
while the 125 A versions use enclosures that are uniform with
Eaton’s MEM series of Exel 2 products.
For use with Glasgow and Exel 2 products, the
meterpacks are supplied complete with ready terminated jumper cables
as a further aid to speedy installation. All units in the range are,
however, equally suitable for use in standalone applications in
conjunction with almost any type of distribution equipment.
xEnergy Modular Switchboard System
The versatile xEnergy modular switchboard system
has been verified by testing as fully meeting the requirements of BS
EN 61439-1 and BS EN 61439-2, the new UK standards for low voltage
switchgear assemblies.
The xEnergy modular switchboard system has been
designed to allow users maximum flexibility in configuration, so
that they can easily build assemblies that accurately meet their own
particular requirements. The system is made up of fully tested
function modules, which have internal separation up to Form 4.
xEnergy switchboards can accommodate incomers and
bus-section switches with ratings up to 4,000A and outgoing sections
with switching and protective devices rated up to 630A. The system
supports three-pole, four-pole and three-pole-plus-neutral
configurations, making it suitable for all normal industrial and
commercial applications.
In addition to the power sections, control
sections can also be provided as required to accommodate, for
example, motor starters, power factor correction modules, variable
speed drives, soft starters and automation solutions. Empty sections
can readily be incorporated in the assemblies to allow for easy
future expansion.
The xEnergy system has been developed from the
outset to satisfy today’s requirements for detailed monitoring of
energy usage. It offers extensive provision for the inclusion of
metering and sub-metering, making it easy for users to comply with
Part L2 of the Building Regulations and similar legislation.
