French term

Coffret REMBT

French to English Tech/Engineering Electronics / Elect Eng
Stands for "raccordement emergent modulaire basse tension", but other than that I have been unable to work out what it does, as this is not my field (hate it when they throw in stinkers in an otherwise inocuous document!).

The phrase:

Les Locaux seront alimentés en énergie électrique depuis un ensemble de 4 postes de distribution publique implanté dans le Centre, à partir de ces postes, un réseau basse tension souterrain de alimentera des coffrets « REMBT » installés dans des socles situés à l’arrière des locaux.

Thanks.

redundant? I think just "low voltage cabinet" would do the job. The rest is pretty much implied, since why have a low-voltage cabinet if not to connect to anything?
Julie Barber Apr 12, 2010:
I'm not very technical Wendy, so it only an idea not confirmation ;-)

Yes, I'd come across some similar pages, but I didn't feel confident enough to trust any of them. Happy to be told otherwise, however!

agree Traducteur Tech : Yes, this is a good general description. See: http://www.seifel.fr/documentation-gamme-produit.asp . It is also called a 'modular distribution enclosure'.
