MCC
A Motor Control Center (MCC) is a series of structures fed from
a main device that is filled with motor starters, soft starters,
and breaker and fusible disconnect switches. They may also
have metering, TVSS and communications.
Bucket
A bucket is the assembly containing the motor starter or feeder
breaker/fusible switch that gets plugged into the MCC vertical
bus. The vertical power bus is then fed through the stab assem-
bly to the breaker or fusible switch. That breaker/fusible switch
is able to disconnect power to all components it feeds. The
bucket generally contains the disconnect, a CPT (Control Power
Transformer), motor starter, relays, and any cover controls used
to control the motor starter.
Unit
A unit is another term for bucket (see above).
Cover Controls
Cover controls are the devices seen and operated on the cover
and the outside of the bucket. The most common cover con-
trols are selector switches, pushbuttons and pilot lights. When
quoting a new bucket, it is very important to find out what
cover controls the customer needs so the bucket is wired
properly from the factory.
X Space
MCC structures are measured in X space. Each X equals 6”
of height. An example of how this is used is a Size 1 motor
starter is generally built in a 2X bucket, or 12”. Where this
becomes key is in determining how much space the customer
has available to add new loads.
Stab Assembly
The stab assembly is on the rear of the bucket and is what
plugs the bucket onto the vertical bus. This must mate cleanly
with the vertical bus to provide complete power to the bucket
and to not arc.
Cover
The cover is literally the cover over the bucket or a blank cover
over empty space. Many times when customers are buying
new buckets, they will need additional covers to fill blank space.
