Marathon Special Products, an industry leader in electrical/electronic components, released a new addition to their Enclosed Power Block line today. Along with the enhanced touch-proof protection, the new Enclosed Power Distribution Blocks (PDB) are UL Listed and designed to meet the new spacing requirements with elevated SCCR ratings per UL508A and NEC2005. Features of new Enclosed PDBs include a smaller profile, lower wire range approval (#2-14) and a modular design that allows snapping of any number of poles together. According to Bruce Golen, Sr. Application Engineer at Marathon Special Products, “having a UL Listed product makes it easier and less cumbersome for panel manufacturers to get their panels investigated to UL standards.” Many of Marathon’s products, including the newly released PDB’s, are compliant to UL standards for use with flexible stranded wire (Class G, H, I & K). The newly released PDB’s can be used for variety of applications including Industrial Control Panels, Solar combiner and inverter panels, Wind Power and other commercial applications.
