Overview of PrismaG/GX/GK

Functional system Prisma G,GX,GK

The Prisma G functional system can be used to build all types of main, secondary and final low-voltage switchboards up to 630 A, for industrial and commercial buildings. The same components, whether for switchgear installation, current distribution, cable running, etc., may be installed in any of three types of enclosures or cubicles, depending on the size of the switchboard and the installation site. Prisma G enclosures: IP30, 40, 43 IK07, 08 May be dismantled May be joined side by side or one on top of the other 300 mm duct may be added on side, left or right 6 heights ranging from 200 to 1200 mm, Width: 550 mm Prisma GX cubicles: IP30, 40, 43 IK07, 08 May be dismantled May be joined side-by-side A Prisma G enclosure may be added on top 300 mm add-on duct 2 heights: 1550 and 1850 mm Width: 550 mm Prisma GK enclosures: IP55 IK10 May be dismantled May be joined side by side and/or top bottom 300 mm add-on duct 7 heights from 450 to 1750 mm Width 600 mm

Enclosure Material Prisma G, GX, GK: sheet steel, anti-corrosion protection. Surface treatment Anti-corrosion coating, smooth or textured thermal polymerised polyesterepoxy powder. Colour Prisma beige. Busbar insulating supports All plastic parts withstand fire or excessive heat caused by internal electrical phenomena, as per IEC 695-2.1: 960 30 s / 30 s for supports for live metal parts. Building up installations Functional Prisma G components can be used to build switchgear assemblies that comply with standards IEC 439-1 and EN 60439-1, with the following electrical characteristics Rated insulation voltage for the main busbars at the rear of the switchboard: 1000 V Rated operating current Ie (40 C): 630 A Peak withstand current: Ipk = 53 kA Short time withstand current: Icw = 25 kA rms / 1 s Frequency 50 / 60 Hz
