Power Break II Switchboard

ABB's industrial-duty switchboard product line Power Break® II ---features individually-mounted breaker compartments for ABB's complete product family of insulated case breakers.

Power Break II (PB) switchboards can house insulated case circuit breakers as mains, ties, and feeders; and low voltage power circuit breakers as mains and ties. 

The PB II switchboard line offers an outstanding cost effective, alternative to the more robust switchgear constructions. ABB switchboards feature:

• Rugged construction - Specially designed bus structure enabling them to withstand the damaging effects of a short circuit for at least 30 cycles - a feature normally found only in switchgear.
• Fast cycle times - ABB has some of the fastest switchboard manufacturing cycle times in the industry.
• Broad Functionality - Similar overall functionality to comparable ANSI-rated switchgear.
• Cost effective design - ABB's PB II Switchboard save you money as functional alternative to switchgear.

Both switchboard product lines feature protective devices that can be provided with communications capability for connection to ABB's Power Management Control System. This switchboard line also features simple designs that allow for rapid field modification and maintenance - a must for use in applications where system downtime is absolutely unacceptable.
