Market Status and Problems of China's Low Voltage Distribution Box Industry in 2020

1. Overview

Distribution Box is a low-voltage distribution box composed of switchgear, measuring instruments, protective appliances and auxiliary equipment assembled in a closed or semi-closed metal cabinet or on a panel according to electrical wiring requirements. During normal operation, the circuit can be switched on or off by means of manual or automatic switches. Fault or abnormal operation with the help of electrical protection to cut off the circuit or alarm. With the help of measuring instruments, various parameters in operation can be displayed, and some electrical parameters can be adjusted to prompt or signal deviation from the normal working state.

distribution box has the characteristics of small size, easy installation, special technical performance, fixed position, unique configuration function, no site restriction, common application, stable and reliable operation, high space utilization rate, less land occupation and environmental protection effect.
