PERFORMANCE CAPABILITIES
Our leading Manufacturing
Quality, consistency, reliability and on time delivery are the established hallmarks of our
long-standing excellence.
Planning toward Total Quality and Integrated Logistic Management (TQILM) program, ISO
9000, we set ourselves apart from other manufacturers by adopting a platform that
automates the complete design process to end manufacturing.
Networked computer aided design (CAD) translates customers’ requirements into
switchgear layout and control circuit diagrams which are then automatically down-loaded
to computer aided manufacturing (CAM) sections.
These shearing and bending machines. Surface finishing is perfected through a conveyer
lined temperature controlled Electrical Furnace for pre-treatment and high temperature
power coating polymerisation.

Our leading Facilities

Our Plants cover total ,000mLocated in Batam, PT. I-Tech General Engineering employs
machines to enhance our throughout and to handle highly complex and precision sheet
metal operations.
These include of units bending and punching machine which handle material up to 5mm
thick, With our technologically advanced equipment and facilities, we are able to create
more value, increase customer loyalty and bring better products to market faster than
ever before.
The new IEC 61439

The new IEC 61439 standard applies to enclosures which the rated voltage is under 1000
V AC (at frequencies not exceeding 1000 Hz) or 1500 V DC. The standard defines the
design verified ASSEMBLIES and eliminates completely the categories TTA and PTTA. In
order to conform to the standard, type tests have been replaced by a design verification
which can be carry out by the three following equivalent and alternative methods: testing,
calculation/measurement or application of design rules.

IEC 61439-1 General rules

IEC 61439-2 Power switchgear and control gear assemblies
IEC 61439-3 Distribution boards I
IEC 61439-4 Assemblies for construction sites
IEC 61439-5 Assemblies for power distribution
IEC 61439-6 Busbar trunking systems
IEC 61439-1
General rules

General Rules Cross referenced by all other parts of the series. Does not need to be
specified, compliance to one of the other parts of the standard automatically determines
its compliance.
Power Switchgear and Controlgear Assemblies. “low – voltage switchgear and controlgear
assembly used to distribute and control energy for all types of loads, intended for
industrial, commercial and similar applications operated by skilled or instructed persons”
Functional unit
Part of an assembly, comprising all the electrical and mechanical elements that contribute
to the fulfilment of the same function.
 Enclosure
 Earth Bar (protective conductor)
 Incoming Device
o Air Circuit Breaker (ACB)
o Moulded Case Circuit Breaker (MCCB)
o Isolator
 Busbars
o Main
o Distribution
 Outgoing Devices
o Moulded Case Circuit Breakers (MCCB)
o Fused Isolators
o Miniature Circuit Breakers (MCB
o Additional power circuits (for motor control)
 Auxiliary circuits (controls)

Original Manufacturer
Organization that has carried out the original design and the associated verification of an
ASSEMBLY in accordance with the relevant ASSEMBLY standard.
Assembly Manufacturer
Organization taking the responsibility for the completed ASSEMBLY (e.g panel builder using
an ASSEMBLY system from an Original Manufacturer) (NOTE: The ASSEMBLY manufacturer
may be a different organization to the original manufacturer)
User
Party who will specify, purchase, use and/or operate the ASSEMBLY, or someone acting
on their behalf.
Original Component Manufacturer
Party who will design manufacture and sale components which can be used in the
assembly. The ORIGINAL manufacturer of the Component provides the design verification
according to the IEC 61439.1
Component Manufacturer
Party who will manufacture and sell components but does not provide sufficient design
verification. In this case, the assembly manufacturer (Panel builder) needs to realize the
design verification of the component. Manufacturer producing copy of original component
Manufacturer is inside this category. The component manufacturer is not able to provide
any test report or certificate.
Assembly
(low-voltage switchgear and controlgear assembly): combination of one or more low-
voltage switching devices together with associated control, measuring, signaling,
protective, regulating equipment, with all the internal electrical and mechanical
interconnections and structural parts.
Assembly System
Full range of mechanical and electrical components (enclosures, busbars, functional units,
etc.), as defined by the original manufacturer, which can be assembled in accordance
with the original manufacturer’s instructions in order to produce various ASSEMBLIES.
Busbar
Low-impedance conductor to which several electric circuits can be separately connected.
NOTE the term “busbar” does not presuppose the geometrical shape, size or dimensions
of the conductor.
Distribution Busbar
Busbar within one section which is connected to a main busbar and from which outgoing
units are supplied. NOTE: Conductors that are connected between a functional unit and
a busbar are not considered as a part of the distribution busbars.
The Standard also now recognises that there maybe more than one company responsible
for the verification of the final Assembly.

The ASSEMBLY manufacturer can decide:

 to manufacture the ASSEMBLY according to the guidelines of the

original manufacturer
 to deviate from the guidelines of the original manufacturer. Where
ASSEMBLY manufacture

the ASSEMBLY manufacturer incorporates his own arrangements not

included in the original manufacturer’s verification, the ASSEMBLY
manufacturer is deemed to be the original manufacturer in respect
of these arrangements.
