CT Enclosures

CT Enclosures

Purpose-built enclosures for safe and accurate current transformer metering

Overview

Current Transformer (CT) Enclosures are a key part of accurate high-load energy metering. Chadwick manufactures CT enclosures to comply with local distributor and utility regulations, ensuring both reliability and safety.

These enclosures provide a secure and accessible space for CTs to be installed and maintained, whether for billing, energy monitoring, or load management. With decades of experience in metering, we deliver tailored solutions that match project specifications for housing authorities, industrial estates, commercial developments, and infrastructure sites.

Available in both indoor and outdoor configurations, Chadwick CT enclosures are tamper-resistant, logically laid out, and built to last.

FAQs

How long does it take to manufacture a switchboard?

Lead times vary depending on the complexity of your board and current production capacity. Standard boards can be completed in 2–4 weeks, while fully custom solutions may take 6–8 weeks. For urgent requirements, speak with our team — we’ll do our best to accommodate your timeline.

Do you offer site inspections or on-site switchboard modifications?

Yes. Our technicians regularly attend shutdowns and site visits for maintenance, upgrades, or compliance modifications. We also offer thermal imaging and grading studies as part of our service options.

Can Chadwick supply switchboards for projects outside NSW?

Absolutely. We supply to VIC, QLD, ACT, and other regions nationally. Freight, crating, and delivery options can be discussed during quoting to ensure safe and timely arrival.

Are your switchboards built to Australian standards?

Yes — our boards are engineered in alignment with AS/NZS 61439 standards and built in accordance with NESMA best practices. If you require project-specific compliance documentation, we’re happy to provide it.

Do you offer spare parts or support for non-Chadwick boards?

We do. Our team can help source or recommend compatible components and provide alternatives if your original parts are obsolete or discontinued.

Can I send through drawings or specs for a custom quote?

Yes — we encourage it. You can upload drawings directly through our quote request form or email them to [email protected]. Our estimators will get back to you promptly.
