1.Brieng of technical transfer le

1.1 Content brieng

This document denes the general rules to use and manage the technical part of the MB301M transfer le.
It is included in the technical transfer le.
Each user must comply with the rules to guaranty the quality and the
international coherence of the MB301M offer.

1.2 Content of the technical

transfer file

The technical transfer le contains mainly documents of offer denition

Manufacturing documents are supposed to be developed locally by
manufacturers, and they are not included in this transfer le.

1.3 Management of the technical

transfer le

Low Voltage Line of Business Asia Pacic (LV LoB APOD) is in charge
of management of the le.
Users are in contact with LV LoB APOD through local technical contact
(offer management or technical support engineer) for any requests or
questions

General rules

2. Management of The Local Adaptations

Local adaptation is allowed to answer some special needs from customers,

and transfer le is designed to allow local adaptations according to local
needs.

Partners can decide some "light" adaptations (e.g. language, tools, simple
adaptation which doesn't alter the switchboard performance...) under the
supervision of SE technical support team

Countries have to contact LV LoB APOD for all other adaptations, and ask
for the validation of these local adaptations

3. Distribution of The Technical Transfer File

3.1 Issuer

LV LoB APOD, Shanghai, P.R. CHINA

3.2 Addressee

Users: Schneider equipment activities and partners

3.3 Management of the distribution

of the transfer le

Distribution of successive revisions of the technical transfer le is

made with DVD.
Each revision contains the document "What's new" le, which lists all
the changes of these documents since the last revision
DVD contains all the documents of the technical transfer le (even if
they are unchanged).
Only in case of urgent need, documents are distributed separately
(E-Mail, MB301M Product Info ...), then they will be included in a new
revision which will be distributed using DVD

4. Management Of The Number And The

Revision Of The Documents

4.1 Structure of a standard document number

As shown in the following example, a standard document number consists
of the following parts:

Reference number: 8 characters consist of letters and numbers

Exclusive number assigned by Schneider Global R&D organization
Type number: 2 numbers indicating the type of a document.
Version number: 1 or 2 numbers indicating version information
Transfer number: a number reserved by Schneider Electric R&D organization, which can be ignored by partner

BBV55952

reference number

02

type number

version number

transfer number

4.2 Local document numbering

For the new documents generated during local adaptation by partners,

partners should manage the numbering within theirs own manufacturing organization.
To be consistent with SE document numbering, it is proposed to use an
alphanumeric appendix following the standard document number. For
example, the number of a local adaptation version of "BBV5595202
0.2" can be "BBV55952020.2a".

5. Standard For The Form Of The Documents

5.1 Drawing format

The documents of the transfer le must use the INTERNATIONAL

SCHNEIDER drawing format.

5.2 Reference documents

Each document provided for the certications, will recall the former
number used in order to ensure the traceability.

6. Adaptation rules

6.1 The adaptations which can be

done by partner autonomously
Adaptation allowed

Why?

You can adapt the enclosure panels

(front panels, rear panels) to enduser needs, ensuring the phaseto-phase & phase-to-ground
clearances remain the same as in
MB301M (20mm minimum).

This does not have any impact on

IEC60439-1 TTA characteristics of
MB301M (short circuit, thermal rise,
clearance / creepage distances)

You can adapt outgoing power

connection by increasing their
length or cross section (to have
more cables connectable), ensuring
the phase-to-phase & phase-toground clearances remain the same
as in MB301M (20mm minimum)

Increasing the connection dimensions, with due care with clearances; will have a slightly positive
effect on thermal rise. This does not
affect negatively the IEC60439-1
type tested performance

You can take a

* functional unit (feeder, drawer,
incomer)
* busbar
* power connection
* cable
from MB301M DVD transfer le and
increase its size, without changing
its dened power/current rating.

Increasing the dimensions of functional unit / busbar / power connection/cable, with due respect of rules
expressed in MB301M transfer le,
will have a slightly positive effect on
thermal rise. This does not affect
negatively the IEC60439-1 type
tested performance.

Adaptation rules

6.2 The adaptation which can not be done by

partner autonomously
Important note:

Below mentioned cases always affect the ofcially tested MB301M performance.

As type-testing is a long and costly process, not complying with usual end-user projects dead-lines,
we thus strictly recommend to follow these rules to avoid the adaptation affecting type-test performance of MB301M

Adaptation forbidden

Why?

You must not adapt the busbars partitioning

forms without Schneider Electric prior approval.
Please contact your usual Schneider Electric
support person for such requests.

The busbar partitions designed in MB301M

transfer le guarantee the compliance with
IEC60439-1 (forms):
any change may affect compliance with this standard and, worse, the safety level of switchboard
(at start-up or maintenance)

You must not decrease outgoing power connection size If such a change is needed, contact
your usual Schneider Electric support person

Decreasing outgoing connections sizes may

affect negatively local thermal rise, thus preventing compliance with IEC60439-1 (risk of local
overheating: possible destruction of cables'
insulation)

You must not take a

* functional unit
* busbar
* power connection
* cable
from MB301M DVD transfer le and decrease its
size. This may affect safety level (risk of re) and
its compliance to IEC60439-1

Decreasing functional units' sizes may affect

negatively internal thermal rise, thus preventing compliance with IEC60439-1 (risk of local
overheating: possible destruction of electrical
devices, insulators, plugs, cables)

You must not change routing of power circuits:

* busbars
* incoming / outgoing power connections without
prior approval of Schneider Electric

Changing routing of power circuit needs high

expertise to check whether adapted solution
remains into what IEC60439-1 requires ("without deviations likely to signicantly inuence
the performance, from the typical ASSEMBLY
veried to be in accordance with this standard").
Such expertise is only available in the team who
develops and maintains the MB301M offer.

You must not increase the rated power of a

functional unit without adapting its design (size,
shapes, etc.) according to the latest DVD transfer
le version

Increasing functional units' ratings may affect

negatively internal thermal rise, thus preventing compliance with IEC60439-1 (risk of local
overheating: possible destruction of electrical
devices, insulators, plugs, cables).

You must not change the ventilation fans dened

in MB301M DVD transfer le. If you wish to use
other ones:
* check they have the same or bigger airow as
the dened ones.
* have the same size, or are smaller than the
dened ones

* Decreasing ventilation ow of functional units

may affect negatively internal thermal rise, thus
preventing compliance with IEC60439-1 (risk of
local overheating: possible destruction of electrical devices, insulators, plugs, cables)
* Increasing fans sizes may affect negatively
clearance or creepage distances. Same risk as
above
