Eaton's Capitole 40 switchgear and controlgear assembly is able to meet rating 6300 A and 690 V. Capitole 40 switchboards have been produced up till January 2025. The system's design is verified by testing in accordance with IEC-61439 and IEC TR 61641 criteria 1 to 7. Capitole 40 includes a full range of withdrawable and fixed functional units comprising of feeders, bus couplers, motor starters and distribution feeders. Ideal application areas for Capitole 40 are (petro) chemical industries, oil and gas exploration (on- and offshore), process industries, power stations and packaged substations.
The operational reliability of the existing Capitole 40 installations in the aftermarket phase is guaranteed by the Eaton service organization.
The Eaton service organization takes care of the following activities:
Delivery of Capitole 40 Extension panels and distribution drawers
Retrofit, upgrade, modification and repairs of existing Capitole 40 installations, including Clink II.

The compartments and cable connections of the drawout units can be modified without process interruption. Eaton's optional microprocessor-based automation system Clink II ensures the optimum integration between the operation process and the electrical controls via serial communication. To maximise safety, racking behind closed doors is available.
The standard panels connect at the front or rear and cables enter at the top or bottom. Eaton also offers standardized designs for back-to-back, U or L-shaped lineups and panels with reduced height. For further customization, additional options are available, such as units for power factor improvement and harmonic filtration, soft starters, frequency converters, PLC-controlled synchronization, and changeover equipment.
No maintenance is required on the distribution busbars due to the scissor-shaped contacts. These contacts prevent welding to the distribution busbar in case of a short circuit. Moreover, racking withdrawable motor starters and feeders does not cause any wear and tear on the distribution busbar. If needed, the scissor contacts can be changed quickly and easily.
All parts are accessible from the front, with optional cable connections at the rear available – keeping down-time to a minimum.
