FIELDPOWER® – DecentralisedPower Distribution with the PowerBox

Decentralised Power Distributionwith the PowerBox

FieldPower® is the flexible, economic solution for decentralised power distribution

in mechanical and plant engineering, at airports, in intra-logistics, motorcar production

and anywhere there is a need to distribute power over long distances. The innovative

solution includes PowerBox distribution boxes, maintenance switches, plug-in

connectors (optionally with fuse function), prefabricated cable sets and a full range

of accessories.

The power is distributed via an uncut round or flat cable. The pick-off is done at

any suitable position close to the consuming device using the PowerBox with

IDC technology. Branches and outgoing feeders to starters and frequency inverters

are realised as “pluggable” or “fixed”. This reduces the length of cable runs and

shortens installation time. FieldPower® reduces the overall costs of the project and

increases flexibility for extending the plant or in the event of subsequent redesigns.

The benefits are impressive:

• All-in-one – the PowerBox for universal application as feeder, extension and as

two-way T-output

• Prefabricated cables or fabrication on the spot

• Current-carrying capacity up to 41 A in branches or outgoing and feed circuits

• Construction of line, tree and network structures
