Maximum safety for emergency power systems

In the power range up to 6300 A, Kuhse controls and switchgears secure the emergency power supply of safety-relevant consumers, worldwide and especially in critical infrastructures. The scope of supply includes low-voltage switchgear and medium-voltage systems up to 24 kV. A high level of operational safety is ensured by compliance with these directives:

DIN EN 61439-1

Switchgear cabinet design for low-voltage switchgear systems

DIN VDE 0100-718

for emergency power supply in buildings with congregation of people

DIN VDE 0100-710

for hospitals

VDS guidelines

for the use of sprinkler systems
