Distribution cabinets (boxes) are divided into power distribution cabinets (boxes), lighting distribution cabinets (boxes), and metering cabinets (boxes), and are the final-level equipment in a power distribution system. Distribution cabinets are a general term for motor control centers. Distribution cabinets are used in situations where the load is relatively dispersed and there are few circuits; motor control centers are used in situations where the load is concentrated and there are many circuits. They distribute the electrical energy from a circuit of the previous-level power distribution equipment to the nearest load. This level of equipment should provide protection, monitoring, and control for the load.
These refer to the final-level equipment in a power distribution system, such as power distribution cabinets, lighting distribution cabinets, and metering cabinets.
