do not confuse System 50 switchboards with off the shelf 'meccano like' frame systems
System 50 is a high quality and flexible switchgear framework, developed and designed by Charnvel and manufactured by our partners. The flexibility of the System 50 design means we can easily provide a complete factory built assembly to your contract requirements; anything from single column units to large complex suites of switchgear can be supplied to most IP ratings.
Our versatile and well proven System 50 range of cubicle switchboards are constructed to BS EN60439 (BS 5486) and are available in all classes of forms of separation.

A derivative of the system 50 design, and testament to its flexibility are our wall mounted boards.
Ideal where space is at a premium, or the need for a full switchboard with incoming protection is not necessary.
These switchboards can also be used to extend the life on an existing installation, by adding additional outgoing devices and features.
A derivative of our popular System 50 design, the Slimswitch variation uses ABB Slimline switches for pluggable, space efficient outgoing ways.
Our flexible range of System 50 switchboards can be supplied as an extension to an existing LVAC scheme, where columns of outgoing switches can be mated to existing switchgear to extend the life of otherwise obsolete equipment. Interconnection can be via cable or a bespoke bus-trunk solution.
Charnvel will carry out a full survey of the existing switchgear to establish the necessary connection and mechanical parameters. If detailled drawings of the existing board are not available, an outage may be necessary to carry out measurements.
The sections show below are commonly used and type tested assemblies, but the flexibility of our System 50 design means there are many more variations and configurations available.
Cabling and maintenance access is from the rear of the switchboard with a minimum recommended access of 1m. Cable entry is through the bottom of the switchboard cubicles. Section height is 2250mm. Section depth is 800mm. Sections are fitted with 4 off, removable lifting eye bolts for delivery.
