Why Choose the ABB 288400 Side Cover?
The ABB 288400 Side Cover, manufacturer order code 7GDS288400R0000, is a mechanical covering component intended for use in compatible ABB industrial electrical equipment assemblies. Identified within ABB product group GT, this manufacturer-specific component provides a clearly identified spare part for equipment configurations requiring ABB part number 288400.
Side covers form part of the physical construction of industrial electrical equipment, providing covering for designated side areas of an enclosure, compartment or internal assembly. Depending on the equipment design, these components help maintain the intended mechanical arrangement, provide a physical boundary around equipment areas and support the completeness of the finished installation.
For electrical panel builders, industrial maintenance engineers and equipment service technicians, accurate component identification is essential when selecting replacement covers. The ABB 288400 Side Cover can be specified using its unique manufacturer order code, 7GDS288400R0000, helping distinguish it from other ABB enclosure and assembly accessories.
Key Advantages
- ABB manufacturer-specific side cover intended for compatible industrial electrical equipment assemblies.
- Part number 288400 supports accurate component identification during maintenance and procurement.
- ABB order code 7GDS288400R0000 enables precise spare-part ordering.
- Provides physical covering for a designated side area of compatible equipment.
- Supports the intended mechanical arrangement and completeness of manufacturer-specified assemblies.
- Useful for replacing missing, damaged or unsuitable side covers where this exact part is specified.
- Suitable for equipment construction, servicing and refurbishment in accordance with ABB documentation.
Key Features
- ABB 288400 Side Cover product designation.
- Manufacturer order code: 7GDS288400R0000.
- ABB product group: GT.
- Mechanical covering component for compatible industrial electrical equipment.
- Intended for a designated side position within a manufacturer-specified assembly.
- Supports physical covering of the relevant equipment side area.
- Passive component requiring no independent electrical power supply.
- Suitable for manufacturer-approved maintenance and replacement applications.
- Unique ABB part identification helps distinguish this component from similar side covers.
The Role of Side Covers in Industrial Electrical Equipment
Industrial electrical assemblies incorporate mechanical components that establish the intended enclosure and compartment arrangement. Side covers may be fitted to specific locations to close designated areas, support the physical organisation of equipment and provide a completed assembly consistent with the manufacturer's design.
The ABB 288400 Side Cover is identified for applications requiring this particular ABB component. Its precise installation location, mounting arrangement and relationship to adjacent panels or structural elements must be determined from the relevant equipment drawings or approved spare-parts documentation.
When selecting a replacement side cover, it is important to verify more than the general product description. Components may differ in overall dimensions, fixing-hole positions, edge profiles, material, finish and intended mounting orientation. A cover that appears visually similar may not be suitable for the same equipment configuration.
Although the ABB 288399 Side Cover and ABB 288400 Side Cover share the same general product designation, they have different manufacturer part numbers and order codes. They should not be assumed to be interchangeable without confirmation from the applicable ABB assembly drawings or spare-parts list.
The presence of a side cover does not independently establish an enclosure ingress protection rating, electrical insulation rating, arc-fault performance or internal separation classification. These properties depend on the complete equipment design and correct installation of all specified components. Replacement work should be carried out by suitably qualified personnel with the equipment safely isolated and in accordance with the applicable ABB maintenance procedures.
Typical Applications
