Components and Structure
Time and space have become limited across various industries, and there’s increasing pressure to complete building projects quickly. Butcher Power Products custom IPCs are configured based on customer-specific requirements, with electrical distribution equipment and building controls factory-installed and pre-wired in a controlled environment. This approach saves valuable material handling and installation time at the job site. We eliminate the need for additional materials such as wire, conduit, and fittings by close coupling between sections. Additionally, the stacked components reduce the amount of required floor and wall space. By integrating the panelboard and a dry type transformer into one cohesive unit, we further simplify the installation process and minimize the need for extensive on-site wiring. This results in a more efficient use of space and time for electrical distribution infrastructure installation. Additionally, IPCs can be further customized with the inclusion of third-party components such as:
- Building Management Systems (BMS)
- Automatic Transfer Switches (ATS)
- Power Conditioners
Applications
Butcher Power Products IPCs are versatile and can be used in a variety of settings where reliable and efficient power distribution is essential. Typical applications include:
- Office buildings
- Schools
- Healthcare facilities
- Retail
- Industrial
These environments benefit significantly from the streamlined installation and enhanced reliability that Butcher Power Products IPCs provide.
Compliance and Standards
Butcher Power Products IPCs are designed and assembled to meet rigorous standards and codes, ensuring safety and reliability. They comply with applicable National Electrical Code (NEC), NEMA standards and Underwriters Laboratories (UL) requirements, which are critical for ensuring electrical safety and performance.
Advantages of Integrated Power Centers
- Faster Installation: The prewired and factory-assembled nature of our IPCs allows for quicker installation compared to traditional methods where panelboards, transformers, and other components are installed separately.
- Integrated Automatic Transfer Switches: These provide seamless transition between power sources, which is crucial in maintaining uninterrupted power supply in critical applications.
- Flexible Construction Options:
- NEMA 1: Suitable for general indoor use.
- NEMA 3R: Suitable for outdoor use, offering protection against rain and ice formation.
- Convenient Access and Management:
- Hinged Panelboard Wire Gutter Access Door: Facilitates easier access for maintenance and troubleshooting.
- Factory-installed Power Cables: Ensures high-quality and reliable connections, reducing the risk of installation errors.
- Top and Bottom Conduit Entry/Exit: Provides flexibility in installation, allowing for easier integration with existing building infrastructure.
Avoid Long Lead Times with BPP-IPC’s
Butcher Power Products IPCs are adaptable and suitable for various settings requiring reliable and efficient power distribution. Unlike factory direct options that often suffer from long lead times, our streamlined manufacturing processes and stocked components enable us to quickly deliver to customers who need power promptly. We don’t delay; we deliver.
