Standardized Medium Voltage Panels under the SM6 brand name with the use of Schneider Electric electrical equipment, suitable for indoor use. SM6 type MV panels consist of modular cubicles, each of which may include:

• Electrical equipment (switch disconnectors, circuit breakers, protection relays, fuse switch disconnectors), fixed or removable type, either in SF6 or vacuum (Evolis) compartment.
• Prefabricated, metal-enclosed cubicles that use air as the dielectric means and include the above equipment. The SM6 series meet the requirements regarding the safety of the personnel, the installation, the proper operational sequence and environmental protection.

STANDARDS AND QUALITY CERTIFICATES

Both the cubicles and the equipment installed are designed, manufactured and tested according to the following standards:
