Applications

Okken is a low voltage switchboard with modular structure for electrical

distribution and motor control applications in large sites of industrial,
tertiary and infrastructures.
Its characteristics guarantee a high level of dependability, a perfect
adaptation to the needs of the application and a high degree of
upgradeability.
Its ergonomic design simplifies switchboard installation on site, as well
as operation and maintenance.
Innovating, patented solutions provide an answer to the demanding
deadline and continuity of supply requirements : delayed differentiation
and live reconfiguration*.
An homogeneous system of frameworks and busbars means that
equipment with front or rear connection can be produced in optimum
accessibility conditions.
The various feeder types chosen according to service rating (IS)
required by the applications can be combined in the same column or in
the same switchboard. Likewise, distribution feeders and motor control
feeders can be combined.
A switchboard with an international vocation, Okken is designed to
satisfy most local habits.

Reference standards

Okken complies with international standards concerning Type Tested

Assemblies (TTA), in particular :
n IEC 60439-1, concerning construction of LV assemblies
n IEC 60529, defining the degrees of protection of enclosures
and the equivalent national standards.
The announced performances have undergone natural size type tests.

The strong points

Adaptability
n Equipment is chosen according to operating, maintenance,
upgrading, layout and budget requirements which can be contradictory.
The wide range of solutions offered by Okken in terms of dimensions,
connection type, installation mode, service rating, combination
possibilities, delayed differentiation, equipping reserve space at a later
stage, including for fixed feeders, enables it to meet project
requirements and needs as closely as possible.
n Management of modifications during the project is simplified by
interchangeability of FUs and the fact that they can be cabled outside the
switchboard.
n Upgrades made exactly when required, without having to anticipate
reserve space equipment, limit investments to what is strictly
necessary while at the same time keeping intact the capacity to
adapt and change the installation.

Ease of installation
n One of the key moments in the success of a project is that of
installation and connection on site. Breaking times are normally
short, mistakes unforgivable and working conditions uncomfortable.
n Okken provides new answers that simplify and ensure the reliability of
this phase.
o built-in handling plinth, allowing movement by pallet truck or lifting
device
o removable cross-pieces and cross-members allowing access to
connection compartments (patented system) for carrying out of cableend lugs outside the switchboard.
o wide choice of front or rear connection compartments
o pre-mounted sliding fishplates, easily accessible thanks to the
removable cross-members
o standardised connection for busbar trunking including phase
inversion and dimensional compensation devices.

General

The strong points

Ease of maintenance
n Operations of maintenance, as well as upgrading, are easier, faster
and safer, thanks to the Polyfast system (patented system). Withdrawal
of a moving part, replacement or addition of a fixed part, and even total
reconfiguration are possible without switching off the section*. These
advantages, previously reserved to withdrawable technologies, are
now applicable to plug-in and disconnectable functional units.
n As their connection to the busbar are made by means of clamps, the
same advantages apply to fixed and plug-in on base units. In this case
load interruption is necessary but limited to the mounting plate fitting.
n The use of a double-clamp connection system simplifies the work
of maintenance of the switchboard on a critical element : the
distribution busbar. The constraints it suffers are reduced, the
clamps can be easily inspected or changed.

Safety
n OKKEN is a Large Site switchboard. Considerable stress is exerted
on these switchboards during operation by a hostile environment, rapid
intervention and modification needs. In view of the demanding
requirements for continuity of supply, interventions are frequently
performed in urgent, stressful conditions.
n Safety of operators and installations is thus a decisive criterion in
Okkens design.
n In addition to a wide choice of partitioning forms, Okken is
characterised by :
q red insulators for clamps in contact with the busbar
q a red IP XXB busbar protection grid
q self-compensated double clamps for the FU/busbar connection
q a draw-out safety device on plug-in and disconnectable FUs (>80A)
q disabled drawer operation when the device is closed (for drawers
equipped with Compact circuit-breakers or fuse-switches).
q mechanical indexing and front panel indication of drawer positions.
q ergonomic grippers for plug-in and disconnectable FUs
q intuitive layout of drawer operating, control and signalling devices
q design allowing, in addition to lifting using slings, positioning of each
column by pallet truck
q standardised and tested connections with busbar trunking.

* Live work must be carried out by authorised personnel.

Description

Cubicle architecture

Distribution of zones in a cubicle

The cubicle houses the power devices and the busbars and is divided
into 4 fully partitioned zones. The auxiliaries and connections are placed
in specific compartments located at the rear or on the side of the
cubicle. This design protects auxiliaries from undesirable effects
(temperature rise, electromagnetic radiation) generated by the power
circuits. Okkens minimum form is 2b. Moreover, the degree of
protection IP2X is guaranteed when the switchgear zone doors are open
and the functional units are in the test, draw-out or withdrawn position.
n main busbar : a single size
Placed at the top of the switchboard, the main busbar is installed in a
volume whose height does not vary whatever the connection and
incoming configuration, and with a depth of 600 mm up to 4000 A.
n switchgear
The zone intended for switchgear is defined vertically in 25 mm high
modules. Installation of the FU includes the volume required for proper
operation, for the safety perimeter, for connections and for protection
against direct contact.
n distribution busbar : always at the rear of the power devices
The vertical busbar leaves the zone intended for switchgear and its
connections completely free.
n the plinth: for column handling and switchboard ventilation
The plinth is used to fix the switchboard to the ground and includes a
handling space for pallet truck or fork-lift truck.
Anti-intrusion grids allow cool air to enter the column. Natural convection
maintains a normal operating temperature.

n Connections can be made traditionally from the front or rear, from the
top and/or the bottom. The layout and position of busbars allows
considerable space for cable entry from the top, including in front
connection, without penalising heat loss characteristics or fishplate
access. In front connection, the connection compartment is located to
the right of the switchgear cubicle.
n Furthermore, Okken allows direct connection configurations on a
power device in a 600 mm deep cubicle, from the top or from the
bottom. This option is particularly advantageous for reducing
switchboard ground surface area without compromising connection
ease.
n Connection to the power circuit-breakers is possible by cables or by
busbar trunking system.
Should busbar trunking be used, the transformer/busbar trunking/
switchboard assembly is tested (Type Tested Assembly).
This assembly includes standardised connection interfaces, a phase
inversion device and a compensation element for dimensional
compensation.
n The power cables are clamped on cable tie-bars and rails.
n The auxiliary cables are fastened on a metal trunking.

Frameworks, cover panels

Frameworks

The framework of an Okken cubicle consists of vertical frames and

horizontal cross-pieces supported by a transport plinth, forming a
shock-resistant and rigid assembly that cannot be deformed. The
cross-pieces and cross-members can be disassembled from the
outside while preserving overall rigidity to allow carrying out of cableend lugs outside the switchboard and simplify fishplating (patented
system). A variety of width and depth combinations allow assembly of
switchgear cubicles and auxiliary or connection compartments.
The switchgear cubicles have a single size up to 4000 A.

Cover panels

The framework receives various types of panels for equipment

protection :
n Front panel:
q Plain door
q Transparent door
q Dedicated partial door
for Masterpact
for Compact
q Drawer front panel
q Reserve space front plate
q IP 31 ventilation grid
q IP 42 cover plates
n Rear panel:
q Screwed-on rear panels, if the switchboard is connected from the
front
q Doors if the switchboard is connected from the rear
n Side panels:
q Screwed-on plain panels, in 2 superposed parts.
n Top part
q Roof
n Bottom part
q Gland plates
Inter-column and front-rear separations (for 250 mm wide auxiliary
compartments) complete the partitioning of each column.

Busbars

Main busbar

Placed horizontally in a partitioned compartment at the top of the

switchboard, it consists of copper bars with a single cross-section (40 x
10), whose number varies according to rated current, ambient
temperature and degree of protection of the enclosure. The connections
to the distribution busbars and fishplates are made without drilling, thus
simplifying site extensions. The original square type layout of the bars
offers 3 advantages :
q the best layout in terms of limitation of electromagnetic radiation
q it frees the surface necessary for cable penetration from the top in
front connection, while at the same time preserving a favourable thermal
exchange at busbar level
q It increases electrodynamic withstand of the busbar.
Note: Beyond 4000 A, the busbar is double and requires a minimum
depth of 1000 mm.

Distribution busbars

Installed in a partitioned compartment to the rear of the switchgear zone,

it consists of 10 mm thick bars whose cross-section and/or number
depend on the current to be distributed in the cubicle. Functional units
up to 630 A are connected without drilling by means of clamp
connections. Access to the busbar is protected at the front by IP2X
insulating grids. Power circuit-breaker connections are screwed on. The
slots for the Masterpact NW are standardised and bars are punched in
the workshop, thus allowing addition on the site.

Protection conductor

The protective conductor ensures equipotential bonding of frames. It is

made up in each cubicle of a horizontal conductor connecting column
frames to one another and of a vertical conductor accommodating the
power cables protective conductors and the earthing connections when
devices so require.
Cross-section :
40 x 5 for lcw < or = 50 kA
40 x 10 for 50 kA < lcw < 100 kA
80 x 10 for lcw > 100 kA

Auxiliary busducts

Auxiliary busducts ensure distribution of auxiliary supplies and

reference voltages of monitoring circuits, as well as of some
communication buses. They are installed in the connection
compartments throughout the useful height of the cubicle.

Fonctional units

General

The range of Okken functional units covers all needs, whether they are
expressed in terms of installation mode, withdrawability, form or Service
Rating (IS).
Dimensions are standardised for each type of device installed and
expressed in 25 mm high modules. FUs normally take up all the useful
width of the cubicle. For drawers, a half-width version for < 37 kW
powers increases installation capacity in the switchboard.
Switchgear up to 630 A is installed on mounting plates or interfaces, the
whole forming complete independent and interchangeable functional
units.
These functional units give priority to delayed customisation, in the
plant and on site, as each one can be prepared outside the
switchboard.

12

Okken

Schneider Electric

Description

Fonctional units

Clamps
Up to 630 A, all functional units are connected to the distribution busbar
by a double-clamp connection, allowing interchangeability and quick
additions, while also preventing wear and damage to the busbar during
plug-in/plug-out operations. These clamps (patented system) are selfcompensated without limit value so that clamping force increases with
short-circuit current.
There is thus no risk of repulsion of a drawer or FU whatever the shortcircuit current.
For feeders on mounting plate, mountable and removable with power
off, clamps are fastened to the support assembly.
For other FU types, they are accessible when the functional unit is
withdrawn and can be installed or removed with power on*, without risk,
thanks to the IP2X protection of the busbars and clamps. In order to
immediately identify the parts in contact with live parts, the insulator of
the clamps connected to the busbar is red.
As clamps form a vital component for functional features,
performance and reliability of the switchboard, they benefit from
individual manufacturing inspections and total traceability.

Polyfast
Polyfast interfaces (patented system) are dedicated to Compact NS100
to NS630 and GV7 circuit-breakers. They are made of an insulating
moulded material. Acting as a base for disconnectable, plug-in,
withdrawable in drawer units, they ensure dependability of a device/
installation system assembly, standardised and tested. The built-in,
insulated power connections provide effective protection against internal
arcing risks. Plug-in and plug-out on load is impossible in all
configurations thanks to the safety mechanism tripping the device.
Auxiliary wiring is made secure in a dedicated zone and connected to
the sliding contact connectors attached to the interface : switchboard
legibility is facilitated, maintenance simplified and interference between
power circuits and auxiliaries reduced.
Polyfast also ensures prompt intervention, interchangeability, easy
addition with power on* and flexibility.

Withdrawable auxiliary blocks

These blocks with 6 sliding contacts accommodate the cabling of the
auxiliary circuits and perform the test function of the drawers :
power disconnected, auxiliaries connected.
The moving part is protected mechanically when the FU is removed. The
fixed part is installed on the right-hand side plate of the fixed part of the
FU and houses the customer cables in front connection. Cabling
between the fixed part and the output terminal block is only necessary in
rear connection.

Withdrawable on chassis FU

This solution simplifies maintenance of high power devices (Masterpact

and Compact NS 630b to NS1600). The devices are installed on a
chassis allowing the plug-in / test / draw-out / withdrawn positions with
acknowledgement by mechanical action from the front when changing
from one position to another. In all positions, the IP 2X degree of
protection is maintained. Form 4b is recommended on all incoming
units (form 3b minimum by design).

Plug-in Polyfast FU

This solution offers, for distribution, the highest possible level of

flexibility and safety :
q free addition and reconfiguration,
q easy modification of rating,
q non-propagation of arc inside the FU,
q draw-out safety,
q identification of risk zones,
q cabling of power and auxiliaries circuits outside the switchboard,
q easy gripping.
The functional unit is made up of a fixed part, installable and removable
with power on*, equipped with upstream and downstream plug-in
clamps and with a moving interface, Polyfast, supporting the circuitbreaker, of the fixed type. Ergonomic handles simplify gripping of the
moving part. The downstream connections are made in the fixed part on
connection bars in the side or rear compartment, and the auxiliaries on
sliding withdrawable auxiliary blocks. The operating mechanisms are
accessible behind the door.

Disconnectable Polyfast FU

Disconnectable solutions offer an economic alternative to plug-in

solutions, if the skills of maintenance personnel and operating
requirements allow intervention on downstream connections.
Okken increases the safety level of the disconnectable FU by means of
a draw-out safety device and use of double-clamps for the busbar
connection.
The description is the same as the Polyfast plug-in FU, except for the
downstream clamps : the downstream cables are directly connected to
the downstream terminals of the device.
The auxiliaries are cabled to sliding withdrawable auxiliary blocks. The
operating mechanisms are accessible behind the door.

Functional units

Withdrawable FU

The drawer is used to make up a FU consisting of several mechanically

attached devices, that can assume the plug-in / test / draw-out /
withdrawn positions, allowing the padlocking procedures and
incorporating the man/switchboard interface elements on the front
panel.
These functions are particularly important in motor control. In
distribution, the need to indicate and control on the front panel of the FU
and the necessity to padlock are the main choice criteria for this
solution.
The fixed part can be installed and removed with power on and supports
the upstream and downstream plug-in clamps.
The moving part supports the switchgear by means of an interface or a
mounting plate. It is guided in its movement and positioning, and ball
bearings minimise the operating effort.
The plug-in / test / draw-out positions are mechanically marked by an
indexing device associated with a mechanical indicator on the front
panel.
The front panel of the drawer gives priority to ergonomics and intuition of
operations by the arrangement of the locking facilities and operating
mechanisms.
Access to the inside of the drawer may be necessary during operation,
to make settings or carry out a thermographic check. A deliberate
opening by swivelling the front panel is possible using a tool.
Operating safety is guaranteed by a mechanical device disabling
working when the protection device is closed (for drawers equipped with
Compact NS80, NS100 to NS630, GV7, and GS1 fuse-switches). An IP
2X degree of protection is maintained in the test and draw-out positions.
Locking is possible in all positions by a padlock (3 padlocks not
supplied), as is also padlocking of empty compartments.
Downstream connections are made in the fixed part on connection bars.
The auxiliaries are connected to sliding blocks attached to the fixed and
moving parts which considerably reduce cabling.
Test position : power circuits are isolated upstream and downstream,
while the control circuits remain connected in order to check off-load
operation of the auxiliary circuits and automation systems.

Polyfast drawer

The switchgear is mounted on a Polyfast interface. This solution is used

for distribution feeders by Compact NS100 to NS630 circuit-breaker. It is
also chosen in motor control for feeders of the line starter type,
protection of which is ensured by a Compact NS100 to NS630 or GV7
circuit-breaker.

Versatile drawer

Mounting plates adapted to the devices support the various components

of the Functional Unit. This very open solution is applied in all other
cases (for example : motor control feeder with GV2 or line starter
equipped with an NS80 circuit-breaker) and is available in full-width and
half-width drawers.

FU on mounting plate, fixed

device or plug-in on base device

This type of functional unit combines the savings of a fixed solution with
the flexibility provided by plugging in on busbar. The devices, of the fixed
or plug-in on base type, are mounted on a support assembly equipped
with clamps allowing addition of a feeder with reduced breaking time.
This assembly is completely assembled and cabled on table, including
any current transformers required. A mechanical device prevents
untimely removal of the FU, removal of which requires section switching
off . Two devices (up to 250A) can be installed on the same mounting
plate. The downstream cables are connected on connection bars or
terminals in the side or rear compartment. The operating mechanisms
are accessible on the front panel through an individual door.
This solution combining total separation of FUs from one another and
an individual door allows assembly of completely partitioned
switchboards (3b form minimum).
Choice of plug-in devices means they can be extracted for maintenance
or modification of rating without interrupting the power supply.

Disconnectable mounting
plate FU

The disconnectable mounting plate FU is used in small distribution and

for low rating motor feeders with direct starting (which represent the
majority of feeder units).
This solution, for front connection, optimises cost and installation
capacity while giving priority to interchangeability and flexibility of live
reconfiguration*. It requires intervention on downstream connections on
extraction. This FU consists of a fixed part, that can be installed and
removed with power on*, equipped with upstream plug-in clamps
(double-clamps) and of a moving part supporting the devices, of fixed
type. The downstream cables are connected to the device terminals and
the auxiliaries to connectors. The operating mechanisms are
accessible behind the door.

Jean Mller fuse-switch

disconnectable FU

Protection of distribution feeders by horizontal fuse-switch 160A

(size 00) to 630A (size 3) in front connection, satisfies the habits of
certain countries. Okken allows functional, tested integration of such
units, complying with the specifications of the fuse-switch manufacturer
in order to guarantee the heat loss level required. All the accessories
equipping these devices can be implemented. The downstream
connections are made on terminals built into the device. Access to
fuses is interlocked with the switch.

information

Service rating

The service rating is a characterisation tool for LV switchboards set up

by the French manufacturers of electrical switchgear.
It allows the users to express their needs as answers to the
requirements of their site. It doesnt need any specific knowledge of the
applicable standards.
It is made of three digits : one per criterion from 1 to 3.
The minimum index is 111, the maximum 333
