Plus Series Duplex Isolated Power Panel - Model IPX-P
The Plus Series (Model IPX-P) Duplex Isolated Power Panel System is an Isolated power panel that includes two separate panels in one enclosure. Isolated Power Systems in one enclosure minimize the wall space requirement and simplify installation. The IPX-P requires two separate power feeds for each side. Design capabilities and requirements are the same as those of the IPP-P single panels.
The IPX-P Duplex Power Panel can accomodate up to 10 kVA transformers and up to 16 circuits on each side. These panel power systems are typically used in hospital operating rooms and other wet procedure locations with load requirements exceeding 10kVA, or 16 circuits. Any combination of transformer sizes up to 20kVA total capacity can be specified. Secondary voltage output is typically 120V however, higher voltage output on either side is possible.
Included with Panel
- Two hospital grade isolation transformer
- Internal separation barrier allows either critical and normal branch feeds or two critical branch feeds on separate feeder circuits
- SafeDetec Line Isolation Monitor (LIM)
- Up to 16 circuit panelboards on each side
- Concealed hinge door-in-door design
- Room reference ground bus
- Optional accessory device plate

Features
All Plus Series IPX-P Isolated Power Panels include:
Hospital Grade Isolation Transformer:
- Standard sizes for each section range from 3 to 10 kVA or up to a combined maximum of 20 kVA
- Primary voltages: 480, 277, 240, 208, and 120 VAC
- Secondary voltages: 240, 208, and 120 VAC
- Low leakage, electrostatically shielded primary and secondary windings
- 220°C Class R Insulation
- Top mounted, clamped and bolted design with anti-vibration mounting bushings for quiet operation
- Designed and built in accordance with UL and CSA Standards
- 50Hz available (optional)
Interior Chassis:
- Interior chassis built to order, fully assembled in the factory, and 100% tested
- Primary main circuit breaker
- Up to 32 factory installed 120V, two-pole, bolt-on branch circuit breakers*
- Copper ground bus
- Terminal strip for connecting Remote Annunciator(s)
- Customer may specify standard circuit breakers from Eaton, GE, Siemens, or Schneider Electric for consistent coordination or to maintain facility standard
SafeDetec® Line Isolation Monitor (LIM):
- Industry's newest Line Isolation Monitor technology provides advanced warning of faults to help reduce downtime and increase operational efficiencies
- Advanced filtering and noise suppression for improved accuracy and reliability
- High contrast 40-character LED display for better visibility and viewing angle
- Universal 120-240 VAC power input allows LIMs to be directly Interchanged from 120V to 208V/240V laser panels without changing the internal jumper or switch settings
- Additional parameters can be displayed on the user interface for more advanced troubleshooting, such as L1 and L2 line-to-ground voltages, insulation resistance, and insulation capacitance
- Increased memory allows more log entries and a longer history of LIM data
Enclosure and Trim:
- Heavy-duty galvanized steel back box designed for flush mounting; can be shipped ahead of the interior during rough-in
- Stainless steel front trim panel with fully hidden hinged, door-in-door construction reduces damage and potential injuries during installation, testing, and maintenance
- Surface mounting options available
Installation
- If the Isolated Power Panel is not installed inside the patient/procedure room, National Electric Code requires that a Remote Annunciator be installed so that it is “conspicuously visible” in the area served.
- Special low leakage wire should always be used for the powered conductors of branch circuit wiring. XPLE type insulation such as XHHW-2 wire is recommended with a dielectric constant of less than 3.5. Standard type insulation such as THHN is appropriate for the incoming primary and the ground wires only.
- The NEC (Article 517.160) requires secondary circuits to be colored brown and orange, with a distinctive stripe in a contrasting color. The brown wire is connected to the L2 bus and the hot side (brass screw) of a standard NEMA receptacle. The orange wire, L1 is connected to the silver screw where neutral would be connected. Polarity should be maintained throughout the installation.
- Conduit runs for branch circuits should be as short and direct as possible to minimize accumulated leakage current in the circuit conductors. Generally, 400‐450 feet is the maximum recommended cumulative length of all branch conductors from a single transformer. Avoid unnecessary bends and junctions. Select for more information.
- Do not use pulling compounds to lubricate inside of the conduit. This will break down the insulation properties and raise leakage current. A dry talc powder may be used. It is typical to use conduit with a slightly larger diameter to ease pulling and avoid damage to wire insulation. An interior coating of PVC may also be used.
- Isolated power circuits must be kept separate from other circuits. Do not share the conduit or raceway with non‐isolated circuits, or isolated circuits from another system.
- Each receptacle and equipment grounding connector must be connected back to Reference Ground Bus inside Isolation Panel to maintain Equipotential grounding system. If multiple panels serve the same space, they must be bonded together.
