Acti9 distribution & active protection

Range overviewSite suitabilityLifecycle view

Why we use the range

Equipment is only useful when it fits the site.

Type-tested single- and three-phase distribution with metered, multi-service, hybrid and heavy-duty options for adaptable commercial and industrial installations.

The Acti9 and Isobar families give us a coordinated route from final-circuit protection to adaptable distribution. The breadth of board variants is useful where metering, tenant separation, active protection or future alteration must be planned into the assembly rather than added as an afterthought.

Product breadth

The useful parts of the range.

This is a practical, paraphrased guide to the manufacturer's published range. Exact models, approvals and availability are checked against the current project information before quotation.

01

Acti9 Isobar P A Type

Type-tested single-phase boards in standard, split-metered and multi-service formats for commercial final distribution.

02

Acti9 Isobar P B Type

Three-phase boards including standard, hybrid active, meter-ready, split-metered, multi-service and heavy-duty variants.

03

Acti9 protection

Coordinated MCB, RCBO, AFDD, residual-current, surge and monitoring options selected to the circuit and risk assessment.

Selection model

Four tests before a product reaches the quotation.

Brand familiarity is not enough. We look at what happens during normal operation, credible faults, maintenance and future change.

Whole-life assessment

Why it may suit a particular environment.

01

Resilience

Coordinated protective devices and established board architectures help us design discrimination, spare capacity and safe future alteration into the installation.

02

Performance

Metering, monitoring and active-protection options can improve visibility of load and circuit condition where the project justifies them.

03

Environmental value

Remote visibility, efficient load management and replaceable modular devices can support lower operational waste; the benefit depends on the actual design and use.

04

Parts & support

A broad UK product family, published technical data and product-substitution resources can simplify planned maintenance. Exact replacements are checked at quotation because no future availability is guaranteed.

Our application

Selected against evidence—not a favourite badge.

We verify prospective fault current, board rating, form of separation, metering, spare ways, device compatibility and shutdown strategy before choosing the assembly.

  • Survey the supply, load, interfaces and physical environment.
  • Confirm current technical data, approvals and system compatibility.
  • Define maintenance access, records, spares and software responsibilities.
  • State the chosen equipment and material assumptions in the quotation.
  • Test, commission and hand over the work included in our scope.
Lifecycle note

Manufacturer names and advertising imagery are used with permission for product identification and to explain equipment our team works with. Their inclusion does not imply endorsement or a formal partnership unless expressly stated. Product ranges, firmware, warranties, approvals and spare-part availability can change. We verify the current position for each quotation and do not promise indefinite continuity of supply.
