Key Data Set Information
Reference year 2025
Name
OneFit IEC version for vertical insertion system
Use advice for data set The life cycle assessment is a “cradle-to-grave” analysis, and the system boundaries are defined according to EN 50693, as required by the PCR. For transparency reasons, the manufacturing stage is further divided into an upstream and core stage. UPSTREAM Manufacturing Acquisition of raw materials Transports within the supply chain Manufacturing of parts by ABB suppliers Manufacturing CORE Production activities and assembly by ABB EoL treatment of generated waste Packaging production DOWNSTREAM Distribution Transport to distributor/ logistic center Transport to place of use Installation Installation EoL treatment of generated waste (packaging) Use & Maintenance Energy consumption & losses Maintenance End of Life De-installation and transport EoL treatment
Technical purpose of product or process OneFit is an hard-bus retrofill design concept featuring an integrally safe plug-in technology for connection of new standard apparatus to existing panels. OneFit comprises a frame housing the circuit breaker, connected to the existing switchgear bushings by an additional power circuit that acts as an internal interface with the new breaker.

General comment on data set Both primary and secondary data are used. The main sources for primary data are the bill of materials (BOM) and technical drawings. This is extracted from: 1) SAP – the enterprise resource planning system, and 2) SmarTeam, Windchill, PDMPro – product data management systems. Site specific foreground data are provided by the Production Manager, Industrializer, the Health, Safety & Environment Manager and the Supply Chain Manager Function. For all processes for which primary data are not available, generic background data originating from the ecoinvent v3.9.1 database, with system model “allocation, cut-off by classification”, are used. The database Industry Data 2.0 is also used for Polyoxymethylene (POM)/EU-27 and Steel Electrogalvanized which are not available by ecoinvent. The LCA software used for the calculations is SimaPro 9.5 The utility consumption and waste generation by ABB, in the core manufacturing stage, is allocated to the production of one reference product according to applicable rules. For the end-of-life allocation, the “Polluter Pays” principle is adopted according to what is defined in the CEN/TR 16970 standard. However, the potential benefits and avoided loads from recovery and recycling processes are not considered because it is not required by the PCR. According to PCR EPDItaly 007, the cut-off criteria can be set to a maximum of 5% of the overall environmental impacts. In this LCA, according to sub-PCR EPDItaly015, the production, use, and disposal of the packaging for components and semi-finished intermediates, as well as the materials constituting the switchboard itself whose total mass does not exceed 2% of the device's total weight, material and energy flows related to the installation stage, and devices external to the product required for installation, are all included in the cut-off criteria.

1This impact category deals mainly with the eventual impact of low dose ionizing radiation on human health of the nuclear fuel cycle. It does not consider effects due to possible nuclear accidents, occupational exposure nor due to radioactive waste disposal in underground facilities. Potential ionizing radiation from the soil, from radon and from some construction materials is also not measured by this indicator.
2The results of this environmental impact indicator shall be used with care as the uncertainties on these results are high or as there is limited experiences with the indicator.
