This 4000A Low Voltage (LV) switchboard is purpose-built to support the critical and continuous power demands of a large pharmaceutical manufacturing facility near Blackpool. Designed for resilience, safety, and precise control, the switchboard forms a vital part of the plant’s electrical distribution infrastructure.

The system features three Schneider MTZ2 2000A Air Circuit Breakers (ACBs) as incomers, offering advanced protection, real-time monitoring, and seamless integration into energy management systems. Two 4000A bus coupler incomers enhance operational flexibility and ensure continuity of supply during maintenance or switching operations.

Outgoing circuits are protected using Schneider NSX MCCBs, providing reliable downstream protection and selective coordination across essential production and facility loads.

To ensure comprehensive system protection and monitoring, the switchboard is equipped with Micom P141 protection relays, GRL150 relays, and test blocks, facilitating safe and efficient testing and maintenance.

Schneider digital metering solutions enable precise energy usage tracking and power quality analysis, while integrated surge protection devices (SPDs) protect sensitive equipment from transient voltage spikes.

This switchboard is engineered to deliver robust performance, energy efficiency, and maximum uptime—essential for maintaining cleanroom conditions, regulated processes, and 24/7 operations within the pharmaceutical sector.
