  • Electric distribution box in the power room

    Electric distribution box in the power room

    In a theatre, a specialty panel known as a rack is used to feed stage lighting instruments. A U.S. style dimmer rack has a 208Y/120 volt 3-phase feed. Instead of just circuit breakers, the rack has a solid state electronic dimmer with its own circuit breaker for each stage circuit. This is known as a dimmer-per-circuit arrangement. The dimmers are equally divided across the three incoming phases. In a 96 dimmer rack, there are 32 dimmers on phase A, 32 dimmers on phase B, and 32 on phase C to sprea.


  • Grounding of the power supply line in the distribution box

The correct connection method of Distribution box grounding wire mainly includes the following steps: 1. Whether you're a seasoned pro or just starting out, this comprehensive guide will give you practical. Power from factory ground must be installed by a qualified electrician. Each DISTRIBUTION BOX and controller must be grounded. 26 mm 2 (10 AWG) ground wire must be used, and in all other markets a 6 mm 2 must be used. This helps to reduce the potential difference that exists between conductive parts and the earth. Equipment Protection: Grounding protects substation. How should we protect ourselves from the safety issue? For example, for High And Low Voltage Distribution Cabinets, the distribution box needs to be grounded regardless of size.
