This month we try to understand which are the essential measures as per the guidelines of the Federazione
Nazionale Imprese Elettrotecniche ed Elettroniche (ANIE).
INSTALLATION AND COMMISSIONING
The placement of the electric panel must be considered first. The enclosures can be placed in a place
accessible to the operating parts and to other parts, which can be maintained. Size and placement must be
evaluated carefully for the design of cabinets and technical locals. Besides, spaces between electric panels
and walls must allow reaching easily the exits.
When it is necessary to design very big electric panels, it is necessary to define the points of mechanical
subdivision to get many transport sections. These sections must be joint before the fixing of the whole
structure on the floor, which must be levelled and without irregularities.
After that, some checks to reduce the possible dangers during the transport must be carried out.
According to the Federazione ANIE, these are the operations to be carried out:
securing of the electric panel through the opening of the general sectioning device and the following
test of the opening of the circuit through instrumentation;
detection of the cause of the failure and solution;
cleaning of the blackened parts (if necessary);
visual inspection of bars, devices, insulating parts, ect.
check of the devices efficiency;
replacement of devices, bars, cables or other damaged parts (if necessary);
checking of the tightening torques of connections
closing of the user service concerned to check the insulation resistance and of the dielectric rigidity.
Reset of the connection to the user service, power supply of circuits and check of the correct operation.
