My guess is as good as yours. VCB obviously stands for something. And it is probably part of some kind of system. It might even be something in English or some other language, but it is all a guess with so little information.

The letter "V" is used to abbreviate words like "voltage", or "very", or "vector" or "vicarious" and so on, depending on the specific industry.

The letter "C" ........ pick any word in the dictionary. Same goes for "B".

VCB is Vacuum circuit Breaker in electrical terms and an electrical panel which has VCB for circuit breaking can be called VCB panel. Electrical panels are of various voltages and and circuit breaker. VCB is normally used for HT substation. To have a bare minimum information about VCB read the following link

VCB stands for vaccum circuit breaker...vaccum is created between fixed and moving contacts to avoid the ionization of air which may create a conducting path...

VCB panel consists of all anounciation indicating lamps,push buttons to make or break the circuit.

VCB panel is a type of circuit breaker where the arc quenching occurs in vacuum environment. VCB technology is ideal for medium voltage apps. Users can avail the technology for higher voltage, but it is not commercially viable. Material used for electricity carrying contacts is significant as the performance of all VCB panels including 22 KV and 11KV VCB panel relies on it.
