Switchgear Assembling

What Is Switchgear Assembling?

Switchgear assembling is the process of building and configuring electrical switchgear panels before they are installed on‑site. It involves mechanical assembly, electrical wiring, protection relay setup, and quality testing.

At SBM, we assemble custom switchgear panels for commercial, industrial, and residential projects, ensuring each unit is tailored to the client’s load requirements and operational environment.

Our Assembling Process

  • 1

    Design & Engineering: We create detailed single‑line diagrams and layouts based on DEWA specifications and project load analysis.

  • 2

    Component Sourcing: We use certified components from leading brands such as ABB, Siemens, Schneider Electric, Eaton, and General Electric.

  • 3

    Mechanical Assembly: Our technicians mount busbars, breakers, and enclosures with precision alignment and torque control.

  • 4

    Electrical Wiring: Control and power circuits are wired according to IEC 61439 standards.

  • 5

    Protection Relay Configuration: Relays are programmed for overcurrent, earth fault, and differential protection.

  • 6

    Testing & Quality Control: Each panel undergoes insulation resistance, contact resistance, and functional testing before dispatch.

  • 7

    Documentation & Certification: We provide full test reports, relay settings, and DEWA‑compliant documentation.

Assembling vs. On‑Site InstallationSwitchgear Assembling

While on‑site installation focuses on connecting switchgear to transformers and loads, assembling ensures the equipment is factory‑ready, tested, and certified before delivery.

This approach reduces installation time, improves reliability, and guarantees compliance with Dubai’s electrical safety codes.
