This document provides guidance on different forms of low voltage panel separation. Form 4 describes the separation of busbars from functional units and separation of all functional units from each other. It includes 7 types of separation: Type 1 uses insulated coverings for busbar separation and terminals located with the functional unit. Type 2 uses rigid barriers for busbar separation and terminals located with the functional unit. Type 3 uses insulated coverings for busbar separation and each unit has its own glanding facility. The remaining types involve terminals located with the functional unit in separate compartments or spaces.

Guide to Low Voltage Panel Separation
Click a form of separation for the guide classifications:
Form 1 Forms 2a and 2b Forms 3a and 3b Form 4a (types 1, 2 and 3) and 4b (types 4, 5, 6 and 7) Form 4 Separation of busbars from the functional units, and separation of all functional units from one another, including the terminals for external conductors which are an integral part of the functional unit. Type 1 Terminals for external conductors located in the same compartment as the associated functional unit. Busbar separation is achieved by insulated coverings, eg. Sleeving, wrapping or coatings. Cables may be glanded elsewhere. Type 2 Terminals for external conductors located in the same compartment as the associated functional unit. Busbar separation is achieved by metallic, or non-metallic, rigid barriers, or partitions. Cables may be glanded elsewhere. Type 3 Terminals for external conductors located in the same compartment as the associated functional unit. Busbar separation is achieved by insulated coverings, eg. Sleeving, wrapping, or coatings. The termination for each functional unit has its own integral glanding facility. Type 4 Terminals for external conductors located in the same compartment as the associated functional unit, but in individual, separate, enclosed protected spaces, or compartments. Busbar separation is achieved by insulated coverings, eg. Sleeving, wrapping or coatings. Cables may be glanded elsewhere. Type 5 Terminals for external conductors located in the same compartment as the associated functional unit, but in individual, separate, enclosed protected spaces, or compartments. Busbar separation is achieved by metallic, or non-metallic, rigid barriers, or partitions. Terminals may be separated by insulated coverings, and glanded in common cabling chambers. Type 6 Terminals for external conductors located in the same compartment as the associated functional unit, but in individual, separate, enclosed protected spaces, or compartments. All separation is by metallic or non-metallic, rigid barriers, or partitions. Cables are glanded in common cabling chamber. Type 7 Terminals for external conductors located in the same compartment as the associated functional unit, but in individual separate, enclosed protected spaces, or compartments. All separation is by metallic, or non-metallic, rigid barriers, or partitions. The termination for each functional unit has its own integral glanding facility.
