MAIN SYNOPSIS

An introduction to innovative low-voltage (LV) electrical connection methods that improve safety and reliability while ensuring compliance to MS IEC 60364-5-52 and associated standards.

At the end of the training course, participants would be able to:

• understand how to select, design and specify high-power LV connections (e.g. transformer to
   main switchboard, switchboard to MCC) using a revolutionary alternative to cable and busduct.
• select and specify innovative component solutions that allow easier compliance to IEC 61439-1
   while ensuring long-term improved performance
• Size and select surge protection devices using IEC 61643-11 and IEC 62305 as a baseline.


TOPICs PRESENTED   

Topic 1 :
Introducing : nVent ERIFLESX FleXbus Low-Voltage Power Distribution – Reliable Flexible Electrical Connection Solution

The nVent ERIFLEX FleXbus System is an innovative connection solution between two pieces of electrical equipment (such as a transformer, switchboard or generator. This unique concept brings an alternative solution to the market by providing faster installation and reducing total install cost.

FleXbus Advanced maintains a high level of reliability and creates an easy and customizable connection on-site without additional design study, specific specialized workforce or expensive tools.

FleXbus Advanced is a complete low-voltage power connection system designed for multiple applications that include connections from transformer to switchgear, interconnection between transformers, connections from or  to generator, switchgear interconnection and machine connection.

Advanced Technology insulation sets the standard in the electrical market, with all products being low smoke, halogen-free, flame retardant (LSHFFR) and high temperature.
