UL Recognised Component
Termate has UL recognised component listings for the complete insulator support range.
Canada:
These insulators have been listed as components for Panelboard’s and Switchboard’s and certificates issued for Canada inline with CSA-C22.2 No. 29, “Panelboards and Enclosed Panelboards,” and CSA-C22.2 No. 244, “Switchboards.”
USA:
For application in USA and where UL Certification is required, inline with UL67, “Panelboards” and UL891, “Switchboards” and can be applied where NEMA Standards Publication PB 1, “Panelboards” and NEMA Standards Publication PB 2, “Deadfront Distribution Switchboards” are applicable.
Application of Insulated Supports
Our standoff insulators are suitable for assemblies up to 1000 V AC or up to 1500 V DC. They are intended to safely and securely support and insulate busbars and other live conductors by maintaining a distance between two surfaces. In these types of installations, the electrical insulation and the mechanical strength of the support are paramount. Usual installations are within:
- Energy Storage Systems and Equipment (UL 9540)
- Electrical Panelboards (UL67) (CSA-C22.2 No. 29)
- Industrial Control Panels (UL508A)
- Switchboards (UL891) (CSA-C22.2 No. 244)
- Motor Control Centres (UL845) (CSA C22.2 NO. 254:05)
- Electric Vehicle Charging System Equipment (UL2202)
- Metal-Enclosed Low-Voltage Power Circuit Breaker Switchgear (UL1558)
- Inverters, Converters, Controllers and Interconnection System Equipment for Use With Distributed Energy Resources (UL1741)
