Summary
AF Switchgear routinely manufacture bespoke switchboard systems for a range of applications across
the UK.
Their customers often have requirements for Power Factor Correction to be installed within the
switchboard itself.
Client
AF Switchgear, the country’s largest electrical switchboard manufacturer with equipment installed
nationwide,
required a reliable partner for supporting their PFC requirements.
Problem
Demand for Power Factor correction equipment increases constantly, but due to AF Switchgear’s
current switchboard design, it was not possible to install an off-the-shelf PFC system. A bespoke
solution was required to ensure the right product fitted in the right space.
Solution
After discussing the requirements, a new bespoke assembly solution was created that offered the
optimum level of Power Factor Correction, incorporating additional features that were required,
all within the dimensional constraints imposed by the switchboard itself.
Results
-
Bespoke PFC solution tailored to their specific needs
-
Manufactured on time and on budget, with no Minimum Order Quantity.
-
Their switchboard did not need expensive and time-consuming changes to design
