LT Switchgear

Integrated Power & Engineering designs, manufactures, and supplies Low Tension (LT) Switchgear systems engineered for safe, stable, and efficient low-voltage power distribution. Our LT panels are developed for 415V AC, 3-phase, 4-wire, 50Hz systems, supporting reliable operation across residential, commercial, and industrial power networks throughout Bangladesh.

Designed in line with standard electrical engineering practice, our LT switchgear configurations are transformer-capacity based at the incomer level and load-distribution based at the outgoing feeder level, ensuring correct protection coordination, operational safety, and long service life.


Product Overview

LT Switchgear forms the central low-voltage distribution point in any electrical system. It receives power from distribution transformers and auxiliary sources such as DG sets, UPS systems, or solar inverters, and distributes it safely to downstream circuits through protected feeders.

Our LT panels are designed to:

  • Ensure controlled switching and isolation
  • Protect against overloads, short circuits, and earth faults
  • Support reliable power distribution with minimal downtime
  • Enable future system expansion and integration

How is the LT incomer rating selected? +
The incomer rating is selected based on transformer capacity, system fault level, and expected loading, ensuring safe operation and protection coordination.
How are outgoing feeders configured? +
Outgoing feeders are designed according to actual load distribution such as lighting, HVAC, MCC motors, lifts, pumps, and critical loads.
What is the difference between PCC and MCC panels? +
PCC panels distribute power to feeders and sub-panels, while MCC panels are dedicated to motor control with starters and motor protection devices.
Can LT panels integrate DG, UPS, and solar systems? +
Yes. LT switchgear can integrate DG through ATS or synchronizing panels, UPS-backed feeders, and solar inverter connections.
What short-circuit ratings are available? +
LT panels can be designed up to 65kA for 1 second, based on system fault calculations.
Is APFC mandatory in LT switchgear? +
APFC is optional but recommended where power factor improvement and energy efficiency are required.
Do you offer fixed and draw-out type panels? +
Yes. Fixed type panels are economical, while draw-out type panels improve maintenance safety and reduce downtime.
Do you provide testing and commissioning support? +
Yes. We provide routine testing, installation guidance, commissioning assistance, and after-sales service across Bangladesh.
