ABB 1SQA015342R0001 GQC Switchboard - ReliaGear UL891
Part Number: 1SQA015342R0001
Quick Summary
GQC Switchboard from ABB provides reliable power distribution for industrial facilities. Engineers often struggle with space constraints, regulatory compliance, and safe fault isolation when upgrading main feeders. UL 891 ReliaGear architecture ensures robust protection, while the REACH and WEEE statuses support responsible procurement. This combination minimizes installation footprint and equipment spares, delivering faster deployment and easier maintenance. The design aligns with ABB's reliability standard, supports 480/277V infrastructure, and reduces total cost of ownership through modular components and long service life. For procurement teams, the product presents predictable lead times and documented compliance. For engineers, the clear documentation accelerates validation.

FAQs
Installers should verify voltage and current ratings first, then mount the enclosure for front access. Wire feeder connections to the bus, install protective devices, and connect control wiring per ReliaGear UL891 guidelines. Confirm the 480/277V supply compatibility, ensure proper grounding, and perform a factory acceptance test to validate protection coordination before commissioning.
The unit is rated for 480/277V with a 1600A current capacity and features ReliaGear UL891 protection. It uses an F N3R enclosure and is designed for robust fault protection and safe isolation in high-demand industrial environments. These specs support large-scale distribution while maintaining manageable heat and space requirements.
Yes. The ReliaGear UL891 main protection aligns with UL 891 standards, making it suitable for process industries requiring compliant switchgear assemblies. The design also supports safe fault isolation, modular upgrades, and documented compliance, which simplifies regulatory audits and ensures consistent performance across critical manufacturing lines.
ReliaGear UL891 delivers long-term reliability with modular components that simplify maintenance and spare-part management. Reduced downtime during inspections, faster fault diagnosis, and standardized replacement parts translate to lower total cost of ownership. Over time, this contributes to improved uptime, predictable budgets, and faster project payback in high-demand facilities.
REACH information indicates no substances above 0.1 mass percentage, and WEEE status places the product outside the WEEE scope. When installing, document these compliance statuses for procurement records, maintain traceability of materials, and ensure supplier declarations are available for audits. This reduces compliance risk and supports responsible sourcing in regulated markets.
