preferential circuits
Explanation:
That is what they are circuits that in case of a black out or other problem will get *feeding* preference over the others allowing critical sistems to continue working for a longer time.

La instalación de puestos de trabajo para los locales, cuya distribución se realiza por medio de una red Ackermann, se ha calculado para un puesto de trabajo por cada 8 m² útiles de oficina como norma general, y en el caso concreto de los locales 22 a 34 (inclusive) de la Planta 4ª se han distribuido cada 10 m² útiles de oficina por el perímetro del local, excepto por el muro cortina. Cada puesto de trabajo estará formado por 6 tomas de corriente, cuatro conectados a un circuito de red y dos de color rojo ****a otro de SAI (Sistema de Alimentación Ininterrumpida). No se incluye la SAI, solo la posibilidad de conectar una al cuadro eléctrico para dar servicio a los circuitos preferentes****. Además de una toma doble de Voz/datos y una toma libre para otros servicios.
Se combinará la instalación de red akerman con la instalación de puestos de trabajo en paramentos verticales de forma tradicional, sirviendo la red akerman a proyectar para potenciar las zonas donde no hay posibilidad de instalar tomas en pilares o paramentos verticales.

The hospital’s power building has two separate rooms and at the heart of the installation is the Eaton Power Xpert FMX, an IEC single busbar, solid- and air-insulated (SF6-free) MV switchgear for voltages up to 24 kV. The FMX units are set up to provide a non-preferential and a preferential part for each room and are connected using a specially made wall bushing with a coupling in the middle. “We chose the FMX because of its innovative vacuum technology which allows for frequent and high levels of switching”, explains Gert Jan. “The reasonable price and environmentally friendly aspect of the technology were also significant benefits. Even more important was the high power level it offers and the extremely compact design with slim panels.”

The power distribution system also includes equipment that has been installed on the roof of the building. Here, eight Magnefix Ring Main Units (RMU) and transformers supplied by Eaton have been fitted in a dedicated 10 kV room. The Eaton Magnefix was the system of choice as this switchgear does not require a raised floor. It allows for the cable panels to be reversed and for the supply to come from the top. The RMUs are set up in pairs in each wing of the building - one unit for the preferential and one for the non-preferential system. The power that is supplied from either the mains or the emergency power system via the Power Xpert FMX to the Magnefix is then transformed from 10 kV to 400 V.
