Single Phase Rail Table
A single phase rail table, commonly referred to as a single-phase power distribution system, is a component used in electrical engineering for distributing electrical power. It facilitates the safe and organized delivery of electricity, typically within industrial settings, workshops, or larger commercial facilities.
Material
These tables are constructed primarily from:
- Steel: The frame and supporting structures are typically made of steel for robustness and durability. Different grades of steel are used depending on the load capacity and environmental conditions.
- Copper/Aluminum: Busbars, which are the conductive bars within the table, are made from copper or aluminum due to their excellent conductivity. Copper is more common for higher current applications, while aluminum offers a lighter weight alternative.
- Insulating Materials: Various insulating materials such as epoxy resins, plastics, or porcelain are used to isolate the busbars and other live components, preventing short circuits and ensuring safety.
- Protective Coatings: Powder coating or other protective finishes are applied to the steel frame to prevent corrosion and improve the table's lifespan.
Purpose
The primary purpose of a single phase rail table is to:
- Power Distribution: Efficiently distribute single-phase electrical power to multiple loads.
- Organization: Provide a centralized and organized system for connecting and managing electrical circuits.
- Safety: Offer a safe and reliable method for power distribution, reducing the risk of electrical hazards.
- Flexibility: Allow for easy addition or removal of circuits as power requirements change.
Function
A single phase rail table functions by:
- Incoming Power: Receiving single-phase power from a main electrical panel.
- Busbar System: Distributing power through a series of busbars, which are conductive bars that act as common electrical pathways.
- Circuit Breakers/Fuses: Incorporating circuit breakers or fuses to protect individual circuits from overcurrents and short circuits.
- Outlets/Connection Points: Providing multiple outlets or connection points for connecting electrical loads.
- Grounding: Including a grounding system to ensure electrical safety.
Usage Scenarios
- Workshops: Supplying power to various tools and equipment in a workshop environment.
- Manufacturing Facilities: Distributing power to machinery and production lines.
- Commercial Buildings: Providing power to specific areas or departments within a building.
- Test Labs: Supplying power to testing equipment and instruments.
- Event Venues: Distributing power for lighting, sound systems, and other event-related equipment.
Common Types
- Fixed Rail Tables: Permanently installed tables with a pre-defined number of connection points.
- Mobile Rail Tables: Tables mounted on wheels for easy relocation within a facility.
- Plug-in Rail Tables: Tables that allow for easy plug-in of various electrical components.
- Enclosed Rail Tables: Tables with a protective enclosure to prevent accidental contact with live components.
- Open Rail Tables: Tables with an open design for easy access to busbars and connection points.
- Custom Rail Tables: Tables designed to meet specific power distribution requirements.
Based on the provided information, the declared goods, “single phase rail table,” can be categorized as follows:
- 8537109170: This HS code covers boards, panels, consoles, desks, cabinets and other bases, equipped with two or more apparatus of heading 8535 or 8536, for electric control or the distribution of electricity, including those incorporating instruments or apparatus of chapter 90, and numerical control apparatus, other than switching apparatus of heading 8517, for a voltage not exceeding 1,000 V, categorized as 'Other: Other'. This could apply if the “rail table” functions as an electrical control or distribution base. The basic tariff is 2.7%, with an additional tariff of 25.0%, increasing to 30% after April 2, 2025, resulting in a total tariff of 57.7%.
- 8537109160: This HS code also covers boards, panels, consoles, desks, cabinets and other bases equipped with two or more apparatus of heading 8535 or 8536 for electric control or the distribution of electricity, including those incorporating instruments or apparatus of chapter 90, and numerical control apparatus, other than switching apparatus of heading 8517, for a voltage not exceeding 1,000 V, categorized as 'Other: Other Programmable controllers'. If the “rail table” incorporates programmable controllers for electrical functions, this HS code may be applicable. The basic tariff is 2.7%, with an additional tariff of 25.0%, increasing to 30% after April 2, 2025, resulting in a total tariff of 57.7%.
It is important to determine whether the “single phase rail table” functions as an electrical control or distribution base, and whether it incorporates programmable controllers to select the correct HS code.
