Where the AL7 Active Link Fits in Switchboard Installations

An active link is the internal switchboard component that connects the incoming active supply conductor to the active busbars or terminals feeding the individual circuit breakers. The AL7 provides 7 connection points — accommodating a main supply connection plus up to 6 outgoing circuit connections, or other combinations suited to the switchboard layout. At 100A and 500V max, it covers the standard rating range for residential switchboards and light commercial sub-boards. The red cover is the universally recognised colour code for the active conductor in Australian installations, providing immediate visual identification when working inside the switchboard.

The screw mount fastening secures the AL7 inside the switchboard enclosure, with the red transparent polycarbonate cover both protecting the live connection points and allowing the installed conductors to be visually inspected without removing the cover. The 25mm² maximum cable size covers the range from standard 6mm² main earth to 25mm² active supply cables used in residential and light commercial switchboard configurations.

The AL7 is the 7 hole variant in the Transco active link range — the compact option suited to smaller switchboard configurations. For larger switchboards requiring more circuit connections, the AL10 (10 hole), AL14 (14 hole), and AL18 (18 hole) variants are available, all sharing the same 100A rating, 500V max, and red transparent polycarbonate cover. Note that the AL10, AL14, and AL18 are a different physical size (L91 x W58 x H40mm) from the AL7 (L65 x W45 x H44mm).

Q: What is an active link and where is it used?
A: An active link is an internal switchboard component that distributes the incoming active supply conductor to multiple circuit breaker terminals within a switchboard enclosure. The AL7 provides 7 connection points for active conductor distribution, rated at 100A and 500V max for residential and light commercial switchboard use.

Q: Why is the Transco AL7 active link cover red?
A: Red is the universally recognised colour code for the active conductor in Australian electrical installations. The red transparent polycarbonate cover on the AL7 provides immediate visual identification of the active link inside the switchboard, both for safe working and for compliance with Australian wiring conventions.

Q: What is the maximum cable size the Transco AL7 active link accepts?
A: The AL7 accepts cable up to a maximum of 25mm², covering the range of active supply cable sizes used in standard residential and light commercial switchboard installations.
