Spanish term

parada de circuito eléctrico

Spanish to English Tech/Engineering Electronics / Elect Eng
The full section of text - "Las 4 vigas correspondientes a las alineaciones 240/250 y 320/330 necesitarán de parada de circuito eléctrico, por su proximidad a las Bus bars de aluminio."

I'm assuming this refers to some sort of emergency electrical safety stop, but I'm not sure if there is a specific term for this, and I want to make sure I use the correct vocabulary. It relates to a proposal for the fitting of GRP (glass reinforced plastic) structures.

disconnect the electrical circuit

the electrical circuit will need to be disconnected.

MCB – Miniature circuit-breaker (commonly known as a circuit-breaker). An
automatic protective device fitted in the consumer unit which will disconnect a
circuit if there is a fault or overload.

Disconnect electricity cables to a domestic or small commercial building
Typically our customers need this when they are:
Demolishing a building to allow staff to work on site safely
Building a new property and need to disconnect the electricity to work safely on a site knowing there is no live electricity there
Needing one or more electricity meters removed
Removing a temporary builders supply
Wanting to have something physically removed (i.e. electricity cable, electricity meter)
This process will result in a permanent disconnection of electricity, there will be no power at all.

Definitely if it's permanent. In my part of Spain they're called interruptores magnetotérmicos, not paradas de circuitos eléctricos. Cheers, Neil :-)

circuit breaker

See Helena's post for details :-)
"The 4 beams corresponding to the 240/250 and 320/330 alignments will need an electrical circuit breaker, due to their proximity to the aluminium bus bars".

agree Helena Chavarria : Your suggestion is right if it's a permanent measure. I understood that they need to cut off the electricity while the work is underway. I thought 'vigas' = building works!

GRP es usado como aislante eléctrico. Por su proximidad a las barras, las 4 vigas requieren de estar aisladas.

electrical circuit shutdown

I hope it helps.

agree JoLuGo : ¡Eso es! Deberá des-energizarse por su proximidad a las barras
