A2Z-BBMC Series Back-to-Back Double Busbar Metal Clad Modular Switchgear is a special medium voltage switchgear solution designed by combining two separate switching modules in a back-to-back configuration within the same enclosure.
This design provides maximum power density in limited spaces while offering high operational flexibility through double busbar structure and access from both sides. The series is suitable for applications where service continuity, safe operation, compact design, and reliable switching performance are required.
A2Z-BBMC Series is manufactured in three main configurations according to project requirements: fixed circuit breaker type, withdrawable circuit breaker type, and withdrawable circuit breaker with withdrawable voltage transformer type.
The series is designed in accordance with IEC 62271-200 and related IEC standards. Its modular structure, internal arc safety, mechanical and electrical interlocking systems, and front and rear access capability provide a reliable and efficient solution for transformer substations, medium voltage distribution systems, and industrial applications.
