The Importance of Properly Labelling Your Electrical Control Panels
March 14, 2019
Electrical panels can be said to be the brain of the electrical system of your business, industrial, or residential establishment or place. It consists of the vital and important fuses and circuit breakers that decide how much power would be reaching to the particular areas and machines of the place, and provides for precise control of power distribution. When the different circuit controls are properly labelled, controlling the specific electrical distribution specifically becomes convenient. Hence it is important to know which circuit relates to which equipment or area.

December 16, 2018
The custom control panels are built as per the order requirements and for a purpose. No two custom control panels are exactly alike as their structure, built, and features incorporate the exact requirement of the client’s process. The push button, multi-bay, and single hole control panels and cabinets are used in different manufacturing and engineering industries. The well defined and specific equipment arrangement and the control layout provides for efficient operator control for all the process machinery.
NEMA Ratings For Electrical Enclosures That You Need To Know
November 15, 2018
The acronym “NEMA” stands for National Electrical Manufacturers Association, which is the largest electrical manufacturer association in the United States of America. NEMA has so far published more than 700 standards, technical papers, application guides and white papers as well. NEMA issues guidelines and standards that define which electrical enclosures suit a given environment. Apart from electrical enclosures, NEMA has also issued standards for magnet wires, AC plugs, motors among other electrical components and equipment and is a credible and reputed organisation.

August 27, 2018
NEMA or National Electrical Manufacturers Association was founded in the year 1926. The organization has given the standards and guidelines which govern the design and specifications of the electrical enclosures that have industrial uses and applications. The different types of electrical enclosures are rated on the basis of access to the hazardous parts, environmental conditions, and other aspects. For instance, an electrical enclosure and its rating may provide to you a clue about the protection it may offer against oil, water, coolant, corrosive materials (including gasoline) and other hazards.
How Soft starters Regulate Current in Induction Motors
July 19, 2018
When an induction motor is connected to a power supply, it draws a high speed magnetizing current irrespective of the load level. The induction motor has less power factor compared to its rated power factor. This is because, as the load declines, the torque producing current decreases. As the changes take place, the magnetizing current remains the same. The power factor is lower in cases where the load is lighter. Most motors control panels have a higher load demand which goes beyond the maximum load demand. Unfortunately, the motors do not reach their rated power factor even when they have maximum load demand.
