Protech Power & NHP CUBIC Modular Switchboard Systems:
The NHP CUBIC modular switchboard system permits a vast array of possibilities and great versatility for constructing Main Switchboards, Motor Control Centres, Distribution Boards, Power Factor Correction Cubicles and Control Panels. The switchboard system also makes it easy to design a switchboard to suit almost any installation. Whether a switchboard is already in service or at a switchboard manufacturer, switchboards can be easily extended or modified as the needs of the installation change. In addition to being easy to design, the modular system is fast to assemble.

Dimensions
All Cubic width, height and depth dimensions are measured in multiples of 192 mm which are called “modules”. Multiples of modules are indicated by the designations: 1M, 2M, 3M…12M etc. For example, individual tiers for motor control applications can be up to 4 Modules wide.
Box construction type
(bolt together sides)
Maximum: W: 10M, H: 10M, D: 2M (M = module)
Frame construction type
