Mains-Generator Change-over Switchboard for Manukau Civic Buildings

United Gooder recently commissioned GAEL Switchboards to supply a 2000A switchboard which was a little bit out of the ordinary. The board had to be interfaced with a Building Management System (BMS) as well as a generator control panel, it has to provide load shedding and power factor shedding... and the system had to be fully automated.

The solution came in the form of GAEL's new ELSTEEL Techno Main Switchboard, complete with Merlin Gerin 2000A air circuit breakers.

United Gooders Wayne Harrison requested the presence of GAEL's Nik Fili at on-site commissioning on a Saturday morning. Wayne commented:

"The system was up and running first time, everything went exactly as it should. But in addition to commissioning, Nik also went the extra mile by providing on-site training to Manukau Engineers. It's service like this that ensures we'll continue to use GAEL on future contracts."

Consultant Harvey Limbert said,

"The GAEL switchboard performed exactly to expectation."
