The F400-Xe cubicle is type LSC2B (Loss of Service Continuity Category) as defined
by IEC 62271-200. This category specifies the possibility of the power being allowed
to remain on in one compartment while another compartment is open.
The medium voltage parts are separated by metal partitions (PM class) which
are earthed.
The F400-Xe cubicle consists of three MV compartments:
b the circuit breaker compartment containing the withdrawable part (circuit breaker,
disconnector unit or earthing unit),
b the busbar compartment,
b the cable connection compartment containing the earthing switch,
the current sensors and any voltage transformers.

F400-Xe range Personal protection 0
The F400-Xe internal arc protection is AFLR type (all four sides of the cubicle
are protected) in order to protect operators when they go behind the cubicle.
The F400-Xe switchboard is installed in a room with a minimum height of 4 m.
F400-Xe is designed to eliminate the effects of internal arcing safely, by:
b locating metal flaps above the enclosure to limit overpressure in the compartments
in the event of an internal fault,
b using nonflammable materials for the cubicle.
Switchboard operations
The switchboards are installed, operated and maintained from the front panel.
Certain installation and maintenance operations are performed from the rear
of the cubicle:
b installation of medium voltage cables,
b operation of voltage transformers.
