What is the Schneider collection?
The Schneider collection includes panels, enclosures, and electrical protections for solar and power installations. The Kaedra IP65 boxes for DIN rail (1 to 3 rows) and compatible accessories stand out, designed to house circuit breakers, residual current devices, surge protection devices (SPD), and disconnectors, ensuring order, safety, and ease of maintenance.
Advantages and limitations
- Certified safety: compliance with international standards and self-extinguishing materials.
- IP65 rating in Kaedra enclosures for outdoor use and demanding environments.
- Modular design: DIN rail and optimized layout for clean wiring.
- Accessories and spare parts available in the same family for service continuity.
- Limitations: select the appropriate size and number of modules; respect thermal dissipation and AC/DC protection scheme.
Applications
- DC protection panels for PV strings and string combinations.
- AC protection panels for inverters, subpanels, and loads.
- Outdoor enclosures for residential, commercial, and small industrial buildings.
How to choose
- Location and IP: outdoor/indoor; for outdoor use, prioritize IP65.
- Capacity: DIN modules per row (e.g., 12, 18, 24, 36) and number of rows (1–3) according to planned protections.
- Scheme: AC, DC, or mixed; define disconnection, SPD, and selectivity (Ics/curve/In).
- Cable routing: plan entries with cable glands and bushings (see Pemsa).
