Cat Switchgear

Cat Switchgear

Overview

Caterpillar offers a range of integrated switchgear solutions, from standard floor standing low voltage ACB's breakers 1600A - 4000A to custom solutions, which can include multiple utility sources with multiple generator paralleling applications where complex control philosophies are employed. Caterpillar has developed a modular low voltage switchgear enclosure range which integrates controls and PLC solutions. Built around 150mm modules in 3 axis, internally the framework utilises a 25 mm grid allowing a fully configurable system. Enclosure options include form 4 separation, IP54 protection and 50 °C capabilities.
