Switchgear is made up of multiple components including fuses, switches, and circuit breakers. Switchgear controls the flow of energy, protecting and isolating electrical equipment to ensure safe and efficient power distribution by safeguarding systems from sudden electrical faults.
A tower crane’s energy consumption varies based on its size and load. However, a typical tower crane consumes around 244 kW, so it requires a generator with a capacity of at least 200 kW to handle its operational demands.
To ensure reliable energy for construction job trailers, implement a well-designed electrical distribution system – including the appropriate transformers, switchgear, and cabling for your project – and make sure it is tailored to the site’s specific requirements.
