Commercial Distribution
As needs in the market change over the years, so do our products. We've adapted our boards to allow for more outgoing ways, more RCD protection, more metering and surge protection .
The Range
Type A & B Distribution Boards
Our Invicta 3 Type B Boards have been developed as the solution for commercial installations. The whole nature of electrical sub and final distribution for commercial installations has changed in recent years, with demands for more outgoing ways, more RCD protection, more metering and more control devices.
Panelboards
Invicta 3 Panelboards are incredibly easy to install, the pan assembly, door and front cover can all be removed to make the product lighter when fixing to the wall. Keyhole slots and a central fifth keyhole fixing point make fitting and levelling the board even simpler.
Metering & Monitoring
Our range of incoming device options and scale-able energy metering options ensure specific application requirements a met. Easy to specify and install, Hager metered Distribution board options create scale-able solutions for typical commercial building applications.
Protection Devices
Switch Disconnector, MCCB and RCCB incomers are available. In addition, 4 Pole changeover units are available for 125A Type B boards. Outgoing devices for MCB boards also include a wide range of RCBO devices covering 10mA, 30mA and 100mA applications in B and C curve.
Invicta 3 TP&N
Invicta 3 Type B boards have been designed for safe and simple installation, with features to benefit both installer and end-user.
Take a look below to see all of the features we have designed in and how this is going to make installing a distribution board so much easier.
-
Obround Trunking Cable Entry
Unique trunking entry obround system top and bottom
enables quick fitting to trunking and without the extra cost
in time and materials. The edge is curved, ready to bring
cables in without the worry of sharp edges.
-
Metering
A number of metering options provide a scalable solution
to energy monitoring. Type B Distribution boards are also
available with dual channel meters for separate monitoring
of Power and lighting loads. A metered three section Type
B board is also available to monitor Power and lighting and Mechanical services.
-
Aesthetics
Strong board aesthetics ideal for commercial offices, health care and education projects where boards may be sited in public areas.
-
Shrouded Neutral Bar
Clear shrouded neutral bar to IP2X allows the contractor to install cables without removing the shroud. Ensures safe and easy installation.
Invicta Type B Hybrid Distribution Board
With standard MCB / RCBO based Electrical Distribution boards being limited to a maximum circuit rating of 63A, our Hybrid Distribution board provides a compact solution for Electrical Distribution and sits somewhere between an MCCB Panelboard and a TP&N Distribution board.
Aimed primarily at small commercial building applications, the solution provides protection and control for a small number of outgoing circuits up to 125A, with the majority of circuits still manged via standard MCB’s / RCBO’s.
Flexibility
Two 3 phase loads of up to 125A or six single phase loads can be served from this TP&N Board with 27mm miniature circuit breakers. In the correct application, this can replace the need for a separate MCCB panelboard.
Safety
The larger 80-125A MCB devices, whilst providing short circuit and overload protection, also give a disconnection point for downstream circuits (Isolation). This ensures that there are no unprotected outgoing connections from the busbar system.
Adaptable
Standard MCBs & RCBOs, meter packs and other common accessories are available from our 250A TP&N board range, giving you the same installation experience across the range.
Simple
Larger Earth and Neutral connection points for larger cables are included as standard.
Metered Power & Lighting Board
Monitoring Power and light loads separately to create a better understanding of the where electricity is being consumed. The Hager Power and lighting boards employ dual channel meters and are supplied with the main incoming device pre-installed.
Our board is available as standard in a variety of configurations and sizes to suit most applications up to 24TP ways. A Tri-metered TPN board is also available as standard, where separate monitoring of Power, Lighting and Mechanical services loads is required.
Benefits
Energy Saving
Installing and monitoring meters leads to savings of 5-10% of the energy being metered. For example, a meter that identifies pumps being left on for 24hrs, seven days a week, may save 60% of energy passing through if the pump is only used when required.
Building Regulations
The Building Regulations 2010 & approved document L2 recognise the valuable role of metering and include requirements of sub-metering in buildings other than dwellings.
Choice
There are many options to monitor energy consumption. Direct metering, measurement and estimation should all be considered.
Communication
Metering helps building occupiers understand how energy is being used and lets them see the patterns of where and when energy is consumed. Useful trends can be shown in the data produced.
