MVCB Series Medium Voltage Switchgear Assemblies

Ratings from 2400 - 13800V up to 3000A 

Medium Voltage Switchgear

To ensure the safety of personnel servicing the equipment, all Benshaw medium voltage switchgear offerings include a rack-out circuit breaker design. A remote breaker control panel and arc flash sensing options are also available to further enhance personnel safety. In addition, Benshaw offers a full metal-clad switchgear solution.

MVCB switchgear assemblies are provided in a NEMA-rated enclosure configured for use as a stand-alone unit, in an equipment line-up or in a motor control center (MCC) configuration. Benshaw switchgear connects seamlessly to the rest of the Benshaw MCC for a space-saving design to feed line-ups or in jumbo starter solutions.

The Benshaw Application and Engineering Support team is available to customize switchgear designs to meet a customers’ specific application needs without extended lead times.
