Planning with SIVACON 8 PS - Siemens

Planning with LRC6.2 System components6.2.11 Tap-offs for power distributionThe LRC system has been designed for power transmission. However, poewr tap-off forloads can be created by adding straight trunking units with tap points and correspondingtap-off units to the LRC run.Figure 6-7Straight trunking unit with tap-off unitX = 0.50...3.00 mThe tap-off unit permits rated currents of up to 630 A. An equipment compartment (dashedline to the right of the tap-off unit) is built onto the tap-off unit. Project-specific switchgear(e.g. circuit-breakers) is installed in the compartment and connected - both electrically andmechanically - to the tap-off unit.Tap-off units are not designed for connection whilst the LRC system is live.All other characteristics and technical data can only be provided on request for specificprojects.Planning with SIVACON 8 PSPlanning Manual, 10/2007, A5E01541101-01 221
