INDUSTRIAL PANEL WIRING
Aim
To Study about a three-phase panel board
Theory
Incomer: Power entering from the panel from the feeder or a main switch board is called
incoming power supply. The incoming power supply is connected to an electrical switch
gear it is known as incomer. The MCCB, ACB, SFUs etc. are used as an incomer. It can
make and break the circuit at normal conditions, or a fault condition with or without the
loads
Cable Alley/Cable Chamber: It is the space where the cables are drawn and the extra cables
are kept.
Bus Alley: The space where bus bars are mounted with insulation
Bus Bar: The incoming supply is connected to the busbar through an incomer and the supply
is then distributed to different sub switches. It is made up of copper or aluminum. Usually it
is aluminum because, high cost of copper and copper cables.
Subcircuit: The incoming supply from the incomer is then divided into subcircuits.
Sub Switch: Sub switch is also an electrical switch gear which make break and carry the
current flow to the subcircuits.
Meters: Panels are provided with meters such as voltmeter, ammeter, multifunction meters
etc. to monitor the electrical parameters.
CT and PT: For metering the high currents and voltages the CT and PT used respectively

CABLE TRAY BENDING
Aim
To understand the procedures for bending the cables tray in different angles
Tools Required
Materials Required
Theory
A cable tray system is used to support insulated electrical cables used for power
distribution, control, and communication. Cable trays are used as an alternative to open
wiring or electrical conduit systems, and are commonly used for cable management in
commercial and industrial construction. They are especially useful in situations where
changes to a wiring system are anticipated, since new cables can be installed by laying them
in the tray, instead of pulling them through a pipe.
Ladder Types: Ladder type Cable trays are used to run the cables horizontally in electrical
rooms or panel rooms
Perforated Type: Perforated type cable tray are punched with holes in order to get the
adequate cooling and air passage to the cables installed
Solid Bottom: Provides non ventilated continues support for cables. Solid bottom cable tray
is used for minimal heat generating electrical or telecommunication cables.
Precautions
1. Wear personal protection equipment such as gloves, Googles, Shoes etc.
2. Do not play with power tools
3. Switch off the power tools after use
4. Check the power tools power chord before working
5. Ensure the surrounding have enough place for work with cable tray.

GENERATOR PANEL BOARD
Aim
To understand the working of a generator panel board
Theory
Generators are used to supply electricity when EB supply fails. In past, when electric
supply fails, manually we change the Load from EB to Generator by using a manual switch.
After that manually we start the generator. This is not an efficient system. Hence automation
took place. Now this day a generator panel consist of controller named AMF. These panel
are also known as AMF panel.
Automated Mains Failure panel are an automated switch device that switches the load to
mains or stand by gen set. During the main failure AMF automatically make the power
switch to emergency stand by generator. The AMF panel monitor all the generator
parameters and take decisions automatically in order to prevent potential damages. An AMF
panel can start the engine, monitor the temperature, speed, oil level, fuel level etc.
AMF panel Consist of:
1. Battery Charger: Charges the battery to start the engine and its
operation
2. Protection Fuse: For protection of equipment and circuits
3. Current Transformers: Monitor the current, Power factor etc.
4. Power Contactors: The contactors disconnect make and break the EB
and gen supply from load as per requirements
5. AMF Controller: This is the brain of this panel which coordinates all
other elements
6. Circuit Breaker: The circuit Breaker Protect the outgoing supply to
the loads.
Procedure
1. Open the AMF panel
2. Identify the Components
3. Identify the connections
4. Switch off the main supply
5. Observe the changes in the panels
Result
Understood the working and elements of a generator panel Board
