Specifying and designing mains distribution boards is now made easy with the launch of ABB’s Triline-R enclosure range featuring it’s Panel Design Configurator (PDC) software. Using the software, panel builders can now simply drag and drop components into pre-set templates, enabling them to easily and quickly design mains distribution boards.
Using the software panel builders can select and plan their projects using the pre-installed library of Low Voltage distribution equipment. Each component has a visual symbol to ensure the parts list is complete and accurate. Once this design has been agreed, the software produces an ordering list, which calculates discounts automatically. This final ordering list can then be sent to ABB.
The PDC software also provides panel builders with a flexibility to export data and parts lists to other windows programs. It can also be used for project planning purposes, by providing a facility where customer data can be stored and managed alongside build projects.
The addition of the Triline-R means that ABB’s low voltage products division now offers a full range of distribution boards, providing everything from electrical mains distribution through to domestic consumer units.
