In the field of low-voltage electrical distribution<\/strong>, the evolution of devices is moving towards solutions that combine safety<\/strong>, ergonomics<\/strong>, and mechanical reliability<\/strong>. A significant example is the Acti 9<\/strong> modular system by Schneider Electric<\/strong>, a platform designed for intelligent energy management<\/strong>. <\/p>\n Acti 9 includes devices for:<\/p>\n In a context where it is essential to ensure smooth and durable mechanical functionality<\/strong>, the choice of material for internal moving components becomes strategic.<\/p>\n Among the materials chosen by Schneider Electric is LATILUB 87\/28-10T G\/20<\/strong>, a self-lubricating compound for electrical switches<\/strong>, developed by LATI. This material is used for the production of the rotating cam<\/strong> that operates the switches in the Acti 9 range. <\/p>\n The use of a self-lubricating compound<\/strong> in internal mechanical components allows for: <\/p>\n\n
