I. Project Background
This project involves the office building of Guangxi Meiyijia Industrial Investment Co., Ltd., which includes a basement equipment room. As an office space for small and medium-sized enterprises, the project required the construction of a safe, reliable, and operationally convenient power distribution system to meet the daily power load demands for lighting, elevators, air conditioning, etc., while also considering space limitations and long-term power stability.
Space Constraints: The basement equipment room requires a compact layout; traditional distribution equipment occupies large areas and is inconvenient for maintenance.
High Reliability Requirements: Office building power supply continuity directly impacts business operations, necessitating mitigation of risks like short circuits and overloads.
Operational Complexity: Lacking a professional electrical team, the equipment needs to facilitate easy daily inspection and fault handling.
Expansion Flexibility: Future load adjustments require reserved space for capacity expansion.
Addressing the project requirements, a three-tier power distribution architecture was adopted:
Product: KYN28-12 Armored Withdrawable AC Metal-Enclosed Switchgear
Functionality:
Receives 10kV municipal power supply and distributes it to the transformer via the vacuum circuit breaker.
Full metal armored structure meets moisture protection needs in the basement (humidity ≤ 95%).
Mechanical interlock "five-prevention" design eliminates the risk of misoperation.
Trolley-type circuit breaker supports hot-swapping for rapid replacement during faults.
Product: SWGCS-type Low-Voltage Withdrawable Complete Switchgear
Functionality:
Rated current 6300A, compatible with the 2500kVA transformer, handles the main distribution for the building's power and lighting loads.
Modular drawer units enable floor-by-floor circuit control; single-circuit power outage for maintenance does not affect overall operation.
Independent capacitor compensation cabinet ensures stable power factor.
Product: SWXL-21 Power Distribution Cabinet
Functionality:
Installed in vertical shafts on each floor for local distribution to offices and public areas.
Cabinet door integrates meters and buttons for real-time monitoring of branch circuit status.
Built-in triple protection (Circuit Breaker + Contactor + Thermal Relay) prevents motor overload damage.
Safe and Reliable:
High-voltage cabinet pressure relief channels + low-voltage cabinet fully segregated design mitigate arc flash propagation risks.
Full system complies with GB7251, GB3906, and other national standards; passed acceptance by Guangxi Power Grid.
Space and Cost Savings:
Wall-mounted SWXL-21 cabinets and vertically arranged SWGCS cabinets save floor space in the basement.
Standardized components reduce long-term spare parts procurement costs.
Convenient Operation and Maintenance:
Drawer-type low-voltage units / front-access power cabinets allow quick replacement of faulty components without specialized tools.
KYN28 trolley position mechanical indication prevents access to live compartments.
