Wylex Release a Panel Board Video

Published: 24 March 2013 Category: News

Wylex have released a two part video that is designed for installing electrical contractors. This exciting video features a new range of MCCB Panelboards and MCCB devices.

This two part video is instructional and informative - the first part gives an overview of the range and the features and benefits for the installer; and the second part shows how installers can easily assemble for themselves on site the equivalent of a bespoke factory built assembly complete with incoming and outgoing metering and integral surge protection.

Features of the Wylex NH Panel Board System include:

• Two frame sizes NH125 & NH250
• Three Bus-bar ratings 250A 400A & 630A
• Panel Boards from 2 to 18TP outgoing ways
• Integral incoming metering facility (no extension boxes required)
• Integral Surge/Lightning protection facility (no extension boxes required)
• Incomers up to 630A with adjustable settings
• TP & 4P incomers
• Direct incoming connection option
• Outgoing G Frame 25kA MCBs to 125A SP & TP
• Outgoing J Frame devices to 65kA ratings up to 250A with adjustable thermal and magnetic settings
• Unique facility to add extra outgoing ways to J frame panel boards
• Option to mix G frame and J Frame MCCBs in single enclosures
• Over 100 panel board combinations
• Outgoing metering enclosures
• Outgoing meter kits with pre wired cable looms

Wylex is delighted to announce this introduction of a new range of MCCB panel-boards and devices to complement its existing range of MCB distribution boards and consumer units. This extensive circuit protection product range offers the installer a one-stop shop for industrial commercial and residential, circuit protection systems.

The new Wylex panel-boards are available in two basic frame sizes, NHG125 and NHJ250. For each frame size there is a dedicated range of MCCBs plus incoming and outgoing metering, providing the basic elements required to cater for most power installations.

The major advantage of the Wylex panel-board system over its competition is the fact that J and G MCCB formations can be mixed and configured on site into bespoke assemblies. This is unlike other brands where the panel-boards are supplied to the market in pre-configured split-load type arrangements (e.g. with either 4J and 4G outgoers), limiting on site flexibility and often forcing installers to use the most expensive devices. With Wylex, however, the designer or installer can create the most electrically and economically appropriate system for any installation, with panel boards quickly and easily assembled to match the on site requirements much more closely and make the most of any opportunities for economy without compromising electrical performance.

To each NHJ unit the installer can add NHJ or NHG extension units that incorporate 2, 4, 6 or 8 additional TP ways for NHJ or NHG outgoing devices.   With this flexibility, it is possible to mix and match busbar systems and outgoing devices into customised assemblies with the right number of outgoing ways and the most appropriate mix of devices for each installation. The NHG125 system includes panel-boards from 6 to 16 TP outgoing ways, Outgoing MCCBs range from 15A to 125A in either single or triple pole 25kA devices. NHG125 and NHJ250 boards are supplied complete with the skeleton incomer unit (250A, 400A &630A) to which the installer simply adds a switch module or Electronic MCCB module. 

The NHJ250 System includes panel-boards from 2 to 14 outgoing ways with NHJ adjustable outgoing devices offering ratings from 40A through to 250A at 36kA

Wylex panel-boards are designed and manufactured in the UK to BSEN 61439-2 2009, and are fully ROHS compliant.  Standard assemblies are Form 3b type 2, supplied complete with skeleton incoming unit (excludes trip unit or switch unit) a range of add on enclosures is available for personalising bespoke assemblies, integral incomer metering options are included within the main assembly. To complete the range for each size of panel-board there is a matching suite of cable ways and metering enclosures, metering kits complete with pre-wired connection looms, lightning and surge arrestor kits, and a range of accessories.

From a few standard off-the-shelf components, therefore, Wylex installers can create many different panel-board configurations, a great advantage when compared with the other brands that offer just half a dozen off-the-shelf products. Similarly the choice of outgoing devices also provides the installer/designer with an opportunity to make the most economically and electrically appropriate selection of protective devices. The NHJ devices incorporate a wide range of adjustable settings with several increments to give close circuit protection.

Adding these new panel-boards and devices alongside the existing circuit protection range gives Wylex the facility to offer customers a one-stop shop for industrial, commercial, residential and domestic circuit protection systems.
