What is the difference between American cable branch box and European cable branch box

Release time:2021-08-23

American type cable branch box is a kind of cable engineering equipment widely used in the power distribution network system in North America. It is mainly characterized by one-way door opening and horizontal multi-pass bus bar, and has significant advantages such as small width, flexible combination, full insulation and full sealing. According to the rated current, it can be divided into 600A main circuit and 200A branch circuit. 600A main circuit is fixed and connected with screw-in bolts; The 200A branch circuit adopts plug and pull connection, and can be plugged and pulled with load. The cable connectors used in the American type cable branch box comply with IEEE386 standard.

Functions and features:

1. Fully insulated and fully sealed structure, no insulation distance required, reliable guarantee of personal safety.

2. Dustproof, flood resistant, corrosion resistant, maintenance-free, can be used outdoors or immersed in water, suitable for any harsh environment.

3. The combination is extremely flexible, and the branch of incoming and outgoing lines can reach eight ways, meeting various wiring requirements.

4. Small size, compact structure, simple installation and convenient operation.

5.200A branch cable connector can be used as a load switch, which can be pulled and plugged with load, and has the characteristics of disconnector.

6. Short-circuit fault indicator can be connected to facilitate rapid cable fault finding.

7. There are a variety of box materials to choose from: ordinary steel with military green, mirror stainless steel, stainless steel with military green, etc.

European type cable branch box

European cable branch box is a kind of cable engineering equipment widely used in power distribution network system in recent years. Its main features are two-way door opening, using the wall bushing as the connecting busbar, and it has the obvious advantages of small length, clear cable arrangement, and three-core cable without large span crossing. The cable connectors adopted comply with DIN47636 standard. Generally, the bolted connection cable connector with rated current of 630A is used

Functions and features:

1. Full insulation, full sealing, full protection and full working conditions.

2. The incoming and outgoing lines are flexible, and there are up to 8 branch incoming and outgoing lines in practical application.

3. Resistance to flood, pollution, condensation, frost and corrosion.

4. Small size, compact structure, simple installation and convenient operation.

5. A live indicator can be installed to remind the operator that the line is live.

6. SF6 switch can be installed.

7. Cable type fault indicator can be installed to facilitate rapid cable fault finding.

8. There are a variety of box materials to choose from: ordinary steel with military green, mirror stainless steel, and stainless steel with military green.
