ROBUST STRUCTURE
DIRA Load Centers use high quality engineering plastic to
achieve a robust pan assembly. This plastic material has a unique
interlocking snap feature to let all components behave like a
single piece construction. End covers are designed in single piece
made from GI steel sheet of 1.5mm thickness resulting in a robust
enclosure construction.

The use of single piece ETP (electrolytic tough pitch) electro tin
plated copper of purity more than 99.9% results in high conductivity
and less heat generation. This unique new generation design, based
on less current density results in a low temperature operating
environment which in turn makes the operating life of the Load
Centers longer than classic Load Centers available in the market.
This is the reason that DIRA is proud to offer the 25 year warranty.
TEMPERATURE MANAGEMENT
Proper design of the current carrying parts along with proper
selection of the breaker & better engineering behind the Load
Centers have led to excellent levels of temperature management.
The main factors which help in temperature management are
the busbar design and material (ETP with 99.9% purity of copper)
and low density of current apart from the well studied connection
points to reduce heat generation.
DESIGNED TO SUIT
IEC 61439-1&2
DIRA Load Centers are designed as per the latest IEC 61439-1&2
standards (January 2012) and are tested as per this standard in
highly reputed international labs. This confirms that DIRA Load
Centers meet the highest and latest worldwide standards.
