Learn About Distribution Board and its Different Types

-



Did you ever wonder about what is that particular thing which keeps the electricity going on? If no, then you ought to know that it is the distribution board which makes it possible. For all those who do not know, the distribution board is the main electrical power supply source for residential buildings. The main electricity supplying cable reaches the distribution board and is then dispersed into the secondary circuits, including lights and sockets through the circuit breakers. This is important as it helps in maintaining a proper power distribution for the maximum efficiency of each system. Not only this, but it also helps in the protection of electric appliances.

Types of the Distribution Boards

Depending upon various factors, Neptune India has mentioned below the different types of distribution board that you can come across.

Main Breaker Panel

This is the very commonly used distribution board, as it not only protects the circuit but also keeps a track on the amperage power of the panel. A widely used control board, key breaker panels secure the circuits and keep an eye on the amperage power of the device. It protects the circuits from overheating using the circuit breaker which is connected through three wires in each circuit. The main breaker panel due to its function will provide power to the house including that of the circuit breakers.

Fuse Boxes

A fuse box refers to a consumer device that controls and distributes all the electricity. Understanding its location is very important because in case of emergencies you need to turn it off to prevent hazards. They include components which are main switch, male female sockets, residual current device, and circuit breakers.

Subpanels
Subpanels are very easy to use and also increase the safety of your home. These are very smaller in size and help in transmitting power to a different part of the home. The subpanel receives the power from the main panel and can then change the current distribution of the property.  

Main Lug Panel

The main lug panels are used when there is upstream in the main breaker panel. The line wire runs through these lugs, due to which the main lug panel is connected to a circuit breaker. When an emergency occurs, the disconnection at the meter will minimize power immediately.

Power, the renewable source of energy, where India is third largest producer & consumer of electricity. Being on this ratio, power cuts & other related problems are quite common in the country. After the surplus generation of energy, there are still many underprivileged places. Apart from that, the places where numerous amount of energy is supplied, faces some general issues regarding the flow of voltage.   Power factor is defined as the current absorbed during the load to the current flowing in the circuit. Usually the load with a low power factor draws more current than a load with a high power factor. Power-factor correction panels increases the power of a load, improving efficiency of flow of current. APFC Panels monitors the power which saves the energy & improves efficiency with effective solutions. Some of advantages of Power factor correction panels are: ·          Avoids sanctions for the Low Power Facto...

Save Utility Expenses With Automatic Metering System

-
Image
An automatic metering system is the remote collection of consumption data from utility metres, such as electric metres, radiofrequency, telephony, power-line, satellite communications technologies, and processing the data to generate the bill.   Other countries are now using the automatic metering system to collect readings and bill customers. In India, the electricity billing system is extremely manual. Electric metres can be found in homes, offices, and manufacturing facilities.   Meter readers go to the location, usually inside the house, and take the metre reading. Most of the time, the owner gives the metre reader extra money in exchange for fewer metre readings. As a result, corruption occurs, and the service provider does not receive payment. As a result, the provider suffers a significant loss each year. In the current situation, an automatic metering system must be implemented in India.   Types of Automatic Metering System Devices   Let's look at...

How can Power Factor Compensation Ensure the Efficient working of a device?

-
T he power quality of any equipment is its ability to function properly in its environment. It deals with the continuity of supply and quality of the voltage. Power quality management can be done by an improvement of power factor, harmonics mitigation, load compensation etc. What is power factor? An important factor that affects the power quality is the power factor. Power factor refers to the effectiveness of the incoming power in the system. It can be calculated as a ratio of the real power to the apparent power. Real power is the actual power that is used up by the equipment to function while apparent power is the sum of real and reactive power which is required for the formation of a magnetic field in some types of equipment. When the value of this power factor turns out to be less than 0.9 or 90%, your device requires Power Factor Compensation for it to function properly. When do you require power factor compensation? In case you are experiencing any of the following ...
