What is the difference between a power distribution cabinet and a power cabinet?
The power distribution cabinet (box) is divided into power distribution cabinet (box), lighting distribution cabinet (box), and metering cabinet (box). It is the final equipment of the power distribution system. The power distribution cabinet is the general term for the motor control center. The power distribution cabinet is used where the load is relatively dispersed and there are fewer circuits; the motor control center is used for the occasion where the load is concentrated and there are more circuits. They distribute the electric energy of a certain circuit of the upper-level power distribution equipment to the nearby load. This level of equipment should provide protection, monitoring and control of the load.
Power cabinet refers to a combination of electrical control cabinets that provide power for the normal operation of the entire machine, including contactors, inverters, high-voltage cabinets, transformers, and so on.
