The protective shield can include a pointed blade configured to be pressed into the ground adjacent the utility box pad. Other embodiments are also included herein.

A modular electrical-cabinet mounting apparatus (110) is provided comprising a base wall assembly (122) defining a cabling void (124) and a multi-part support platform (126) which is mountable to the base wall assembly (122) to at least partly cover the cabling void (124). The support platform (126) comprises a plurality of individual platform members (132a, 132b, 140) which are interconnectable to form the support platform (126). At least two said platform members are formed as cabinet-support members (132a, 132b) having a cabling access aperture therethrough and the support platform (126) is configured to be selectively assembled so that the cabinet-support members (132a, 132b) are in a spaced-apart relationship along the length of the support platform (126).

A mounting base or a riser base for a switchgear is provided with side interior openings to provide an internal arc pathway through which arc gasses or plasma are safely discharged to an outside air. The mounting base includes a front wall having a first end and a second end, a rear wall having a first end and a second end, a first side channel connecting the first end of the front wall to the first end of the rear wall, a second side channel connecting the second end of the front wall to the second end of the rear wall, and forming the mounting base having a central open area in a first section of a switchgear that is adjacent a second section of the switchgear. The mounting base further includes at least one opening in the first side channel for the passage of an arc from the first section of the switchgear to the second section of the switchgear, and thereby forming the mounting base with the internal arc pathway.

An arrangement of a switch cabinet base and a switch cabinet frame rack mounted thereon, wherein the switch cabinet base includes a plurality of base corner pieces fixed to the switch cabinet frame rack, and the switch cabinet frame rack including a plurality of profile struts, at least one profile strut of which includes a first mounting side with a row of holes of first mounting receptacles, and wherein at least one of the base corner pieces has a second mounting side with a row of holes of second mounting receptacles, wherein the first and second mounting receptacles are spaced apart by the same grid dimension.

An apparatus for sensing current on a conductor of an electrical panel includes at least one sensing system, which comprises a ferromagnetic body and a sensor. The body can be formed of a ferro-magnetic material, such as for example steel. The ferromagnetic body can have two legs, which when placed on a load-side of the electrical panel, is configured to form, together with a back plane of the electrical panel, a magnetic path around the conductor. The ferromagnetic body comprises at least two parts with a first air gap therebetween along the magnetic path. The sensor, which is arranged in the first air gap, is configured to measure a current or other electrical property representative of current on the conductor based on the magnetic field across the first air gap.

The present invention relates to a module replacement device of a high voltage direct current transmission system. In the present invention, a replacement base (40) is provided in a structure (1) by using a support member (70) such that a sub-module (30) movably provided at a fixing base (10) of the structure (1) can be replaced by being withdrawn outside of the structure (1). A rear end of a base plate (42) of the replacement base (40) is hooked to an insulation support part (9) of the structure (1), and a front end of the replacement base (40) is supported by the support member (70) hooked to one side of the structure (1). The support member (70) is provided with a turn buckle (74) so as to adjust the replacement base (40) such that the replacement base is horizontally provided thereto. The rear end of the replacement base (40) is provided with a rail connection guide (62) for matching a fixing rail (16) of the fixing base (10) provided in the structure (1) with a guide rail (51) of the replacement base (40). The rail connection guide (62) has a rail slot (64) so as to guide the fixing rail (16) to the guide rail (51) side. According to the present invention as above, the replacement base (40) can easily and firmly be provided in the structure (1) such that the module (30) can be replaced in an easy and safe manner.

A mounting base or a riser base for a switchgear is provided with side interior openings to provide an internal arc pathway through which arc gasses or plasma are safely discharged to an outside air. The mounting base includes a front wall having a first end and a second end, a rear wall having a first end and a second end, a first side channel connecting the first end of the front wall to the first end of the rear wall, a second side channel connecting the second end of the front wall to the second end of the rear wall, and forming the mounting base having a central open area in a first section of a switchgear that is adjacent a second section of the switchgear. The mounting base further includes at least one opening in the first side channel for the passage of an arc from the first section of the switchgear to the second section of the switchgear, and thereby forming the mounting base with the internal arc pathway.

A center post assembly for eliminating sagging of a roof panel in a cabinet, where doors of the cabinet latch to the post assembly. The post assembly includes a base portion and a post portion, where one of the base portion or the post portion includes a plurality of slots and the other one of the base portion or the slot portion includes a plurality of threaded studs. The base portion further includes a first bracket and a jackscrew threaded into a threaded opening in the first bracket and the post portion further includes a second bracket, where the jackscrew engages the second bracket so that rotation of the jackscrew causes the second bracket to move relative to the first bracket so that the studs slide in the slots and increase the length of the post assembly to remove the sag.

A switch cabinet frame rack with multiple profile struts and a rectangular base frame, the underside of which is an outer side of the switch cabinet frame rack, which has at least one through-opening, wherein the through-opening is closed by a skid which is detachable mounted on the outer side.
