Key Electrical Control Panel Components that Fix Buying Parameters  

Common applications of electrical control panels are audio control/ mixing, power control, access control, motor control, etc. These also manage the functionality of fire alarm systems and security systems. CG electrical control panels are designed with several components to monitor and manage the operational characteristics of different devices including CG electric motors, CG industrial pumps, industrial drives, etc. The leading CG electric motor dealers deal in electrical control panels also to provide a complete setup for a cost-effective particular application. The major components of electrical control panels you should focus on while fixing your buying parameters are- Main circuit breaker, Surge arresters, Transformers, Terminal blocks, Relays and contactors, Programmable Logic Controller (PLC), Network switches, Human Machine Interface (HMI), etc.

How To Fix Buying Parameters To Buy The Best Suitable Electrical Control Panel

You should refer to Article 409 of the U.S. National Electrical Code (NEC) to know the must-have safety features for industrial control panels. The article covers all the important design considerations about-

  • Electrical supply ratings
  • Over-current protection
  • Enclosure sizing and spacing,
  • Short circuit current ratings
  • Grounding/bonding
  • Workmanship
  • Organization/fixing

NEMA rating for the selected electrical control panel must be considered concerning contaminants present in the environment where you intend to install the panel. There are three types of electrical control panels-

  • Flat Control Panels (least expensive)
  • Breakfront Control Panels (The top portion of the panel swings downwards to provide better visibility)
  • Console type Control Panels (Good appearance and designed with ‘one console for one operator’ approach)

The key quality standards that you should essentially refer to while buying electrical control panels are- NFPA 79, UL 508, UL 60947-4-1, NEC, NFPA 70, etc.

The top domains of electrical control panel designing are-

  • I/O (Input/Output)
  • Functionality
  • Power distribution
  • Control cabinet layout
  • Back panel layout
  • Components

CG distributors and suppliers offer on-site support and training to make the end-users comfortable in using the installed CG electrical control panels and CG electric motors up to their full potential ensuring all the advantages that make CG a top choice for industrial automation solutions.
