Tap-off units of size 4 (to 1250 A):
● Tap-off is carried out using a tap-off joint block in the busbar run, that is, before installing
the tap-off unit, the joint block on the trunking unit must be replaced with a tap-off joint
block.
● Tap-off units can only be used for the systems LXA05.. to LXA10.. and LXC05.. to
LXC09..
● Cannot be connected under load, that is, the LX system must be switched off-load before
installing or removing the tap-off units.
● Installing or removing the tap-off units by opening the tap-off unit, fixing on the LX
system, connecting the cable and closing the tap-off unit
● Anti-rotation feature prevents incorrect mounting
Rated currents, sizes and switching capacity
Fitting the tap-off units with 3VL circuit breakers
● High/extremely high switching capacity (H 70 kA, L 100 kA according to selection table)
for all sizes
● Circuit breakers with 3 or 4-pole designs
● Circuit breaker with manual operating mechanism
