SECTION
PANEL-TRAN
®
ZONE POWER CENTERS
UL-3R Enclosures
All Panel-Tran
®
enclosures are UL-3R
listed for indoor and outdoor use.
Transformer Assembly
Acme totally encapsulated
distribution transformers are designed for general purpose
indoor/outdoor operation. Panel-Tran
®
can be installed in a
wide variety of atmospheric and environmental conditions. A
180°C, UL recognized insulation system is used.
Panel-Tran
®
units are electrostatically shielded to provide
transient voltage protection at no extra cost.
Panel Assembly
The power panel assembly will
accommodate one-inch, 1, 2 or 3-pole, common trip, duplex
secondary branch circuit breakers and ground fault circuit
breakers. Per UL and NEC requirements, the Panel-Tran
®
assembly comes fully equipped with primary and secondary
main circuit breakers. Branch circuit breakers should be
obtained from our local distributor once you have established
your branch circuit requirements.
Panel-Tran
®
—Why?
Panel-Tran
®
eliminates the normal
tangled masses of secondary circuit feeders and gives your
industrial/commercial distribution systems new flexibility. Use
your high voltage bus to full advantage by putting power where
the problem is. Reduce cost — save space — keep flexible.
Panel-Tran
®
—Where?
Anywhere 120, 208 or 240 volt
branch circuits are required. Typically, Panel-Tran
®
is best
applied in situations similar to the following: Powering foreman
centers, vending machine areas, factory test set- ups, office
buildings, mining applications, assembly lines, portable or
temporary power sources, parking lots, small machine set-
ups, light industrial areas, warehouses, and numerous other
locations. Use where your branch circuits may require future
change or expansion.
UL Listed
Panel-Tran
®
has been listed by Underwriters’
Laboratories for both indoor and outdoor operation under their
unit substation classification, file number E-56936. In addition,
Panel-Tran
®
is UL listed as suitable for use as Service Entrance
Equipment.
Meets The NEC
Panel-Tran
®
fully complies with Article
450-3 of the latest edition of the NEC.
Protection
A primary main breaker protects the transformer
and acts as a disconnect device. This primary main breaker
has a high interrupting capacity to handle fault conditions. A
secondary main breaker, between the transformer and the
panel, is required by the N.E.C.
Branch Circuits
Typical 1" snap in circuit breakers, regular
or duplex, must be field installed. They are not provided with
the Panel-Tran
®
unit. A secondary ground is provided within
the wiring compartment for accepting your branch unit. All of
the breakers, including the primary main, secondary main,
and branch circuit breakers are located in the lower section of
the Panel-Tran
®
. This lower section is protected by a hinged,
removable front cover which can be padlocked for safety.
Recommended Branch Breakers
We suggest using
branch breakers of the same manufacture as the panel in
Panel-Tran
®
. Please contact the factory for the proper branch
breaker recommendation.
Acme reserves the right to change breaker and panel
manufacturers without notification.
Connections
All Panel-Tran
®
connections will accept
copper or aluminum conductor.
