The L dimension depends on the cubicles of the switchboard.

A: This dimension should be equal to:

B: 35 mm end cover.

C: Should be 800 mm for lateral access & 500 mm if no access.

D: Minimum 1200 mm for opening the door.

E: The dimensions are as follows:

Minimum distance for operating must be 1500 mm (minimum distance for face-to-face switchboard configuration must be 2500 mm).
1550 mm for operation (extraction and positioning of mobile parts).
2060 mm for the extraction of one cubicle with a depth of 1860 mm without displacing the others.
1640 mm for the extraction of cubicle with a depth of 1440 mm and 1840 mm for the extraction of cubicle with a depth of 1640 mm without displacing the others.
To place the ramp and remove the Withdrawable VT (WVT) from the front side, a minimum of 2000 mm of space is required.

F: Main earth bar for the switchboard.

NOTE:

The cubicle is used for different cubicle setups, including feeder/incomer, bus coupler, bus riser, and bus metering configurations.
For the extraction of the cubicle, contact Schneider Electric field service.
