Distribution Boards

A distribution board is a significant part of any electrical system, responsible for managing and distributing electricity to various circuits within a building. It contains key safety features like circuit breakers or fuses, which prevent overloads and electrical faults ensuring reliability even in complex setups like a 3 phase distribution board. At NAWControls, you can select from EUREKA brand distribution boards available in Grey and Orange colour variations and options from 250A, 400A and range of Poles to IP rating products, to suit the purpose of productively distributing electricity.

Distribution Boards Based on IP Ratings

1. IP40: Provides basic protection against solid objects larger than 1mm, ideal for indoor environments with minimal exposure to dust or moisture.
2. IP42: Offers protection against solid objects larger than 1mm and light water splashes, suitable for indoor applications with moderate exposure to moisture.
3. IP56: Provides robust protection against dust ingress and powerful water jets, making it suitable for outdoor or industrial environments where exposure to the elements is higher.

Each IP rating ensures the appropriate level of protection, that helps to choose the right distribution board for your environment’s specific conditions. Choosing the right electrical the need and meets safety standards for systematic power management.

Role in Power Safety and Efficiency

Distribution boards offer key advantages such as enhanced safety, with circuit breakers that prevent electrical faults and reduce the risk of fire hazards. They ensure efficient power distribution, evenly distributing electrical power across multiple circuits to maintain system stability. Additionally, they provide customisation options, allowing you to choose from a variety to a larger 48 pole distribution board or a larger, more robust 48-pole or 3 phase distribution board for difficult setups.

Switchboard Vs Distribution Board

To understand the difference between these two boards and to decide which one meets your needs - a switchboard directs electricity from the main source to various circuits, managing the primary distribution. Whereas, a distribution board further divides this power to specific areas or floors within a building, ensuring safe and localised electrical management. Constructed from premium materials, these boards offer exceptional durability and flexibility, designed to adapt seamlessly to diverse application requirements and environmental demands. At NawControls, you will find range of these high-quality boards with different features and benefits to provide the best soluton for your specific electrical needs.
