As requested by some of our MEPworx users, we now have a new Dorman Smith CPD Database.
For reasons of being able to model existing distribution networks, the older Load Limiter and Load Master MCBs have been included, along with the Loadline MCCBs. Additionally, the standard ranges of Generic AFDDs, MCBs, RCBOs & RCDs are also included.
Newer breakers added are:
MCCB Thermal-Magnetic Adjustable
• Loadline YA2 - 16A-125A - 1 pole 25kA
• Loadline YA2 - 20A-125A - 3 & 4 pole 36kA & 65kA
• Loadline YA3 - 16A-160A - 1 pole 25kA
• Loadline YA3 - 20A & 32A - 3 pole 36kA.
• Loadline YA3 - 50A-250A - 3 & 4 pole 65kA
• Loadline YB3 - 50A-250A - 3 & 4 pole 25kA & 40kA.
• Loadline YA5 - 250A & 400A - 3 & 4 pole 25kA, 50kA & 65kA
• Loadline YA6 - 400A, 630A & 800A - 3 & 4 pole 50kA
• Loadline YA6 - 630A & 800A - 3 & 4 pole 70kA
MCCB Electronic
• Loadline YA5 - 250A & 400A - 3 & 4 pole 70kA
• Loadline YA6 - 630A & 800A - 3 & 4 pole 50kA & 70kA
The new version of this CPD DB is titled ‘Dorman Smith 2023a’ and is available on the Cadline Cloud Downloads web page by following this link:
https://cloud.cadline.co.uk/forms/Downloads.aspx
On the ‘Downloads’ web page, select the product as ‘MEPworx’ and the ‘Type’ as Database, then navigate to the Dorman Smith 2023a entry.
The new Dorman Smith 2023a CPD DB can be used for a Wiring project as the default CPD DB, or any of the new breakers can be selectively imported into your own custom CPD DB.
