Feeder Pillar
Product Overview
A feeder pillar is an essential electrical distribution unit that acts as a bridge between the main power supply such as a transformer and the various circuits that deliver electricity to homes, businesses and public infrastructure. These robust enclosures are strategically placed in accessible locations to ensure reliable power distribution while enhancing safety.
Key Functions and Benefits
Safe Distribution of Electricity
- Feeder pillars protect electrical circuits from overloads and short circuits through integrated circuit breakers or fuses. This safety feature minimizes the risk of electrical fires and equipment damage.
- Made from high-quality materials like galvanized steel or aluminium, feeder pillars are designed to withstand harsh environmental conditions. Their weather-resistant features ensure longevity and reliability in outdoor settings.
- Equipped with busbars, feeder pillars efficiently distribute power to multiple outgoing circuits. This organization allows for better load balancing and reduces the risk of outages.
- With lockable doors, feeder pillars provide secure access for authorized personnel only, ensuring that maintenance and monitoring can be performed safely without compromising public safety.
- Feeder pillars are used in a variety of settings:
- Street Lighting: Powering public lighting systems to enhance safety and visibility.
- Commercial Areas: Supplying electricity to retail outlets, offices and industrial equipment.
- Residential Developments: Distributing power to homes in neighbourhoods.
- Renewable Energy Projects: Serving as connection points for solar panels and other sustainable energy sources.
Components
A typical feeder pillar includes:
- Circuit Breakers: Protect against overloads and short circuits.
