Functional separation

The switchboard is divided into vertical and horizontal compartments thus separating different functional

areas.

As even power cabling and control wiring are strictly separated within MNS iS, the switch-board is

structured as follows:

1. Equipment compartment

All equipment, including the standard motor starter modules MStart or feeder modules MFeed in

withdrawable design, is situated therein.

The compartment can be divided in horizontal and vertical sub compartments.

2. Control cable compartment

Contains the integrated control devices MControl, control cables and terminals.

3. Power cable compartment

Contains power cables and connection units.

4. Busbar compartment

Contains the MNS main busbar system and distribution bars. The distribution bars are embedded

in the Multifunction Separation Wall (MFW) which is located between the Equipment compartment and

the Busbar compartment
