Engineering & electrical design<\/h1>\n\t\t\t\t\t

The foundation of the whole project. We draw, document and think through the electrical solution before a single screw is turned \u2014 so the panel can be built and the plant commissioned without surprises along the way.<\/p>\n\t\t

Electrical design that holds up in operation<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t

The choices made in the electrical design determine the rest of the delivery. Component selection and sizing decide the panel's size and heat generation, the available space decides the assembly time, and the structure of the documentation decides how quickly a technician can troubleshoot the plant once it is in operation.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t

The design of the electrical construction starts from the plant's requirements: supply conditions, control principle, standards and the interfaces to machines, building installation and SCADA. This is where the actual electrical design is settled \u2014 before a single line is drawn in EPLAN.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t

We then draw main and control circuit diagrams and the 3D layout in EPLAN, and you approve the electrical drawings and the 3D model before production begins. Clashes, space problems and undersized components are found in the model, where the fix is a drawing revision \u2014 not a rebuild on the workshop floor.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t

Our design engineers work closely with the switchboard workshop and the programmers. The interfaces between electrical diagram, panel construction and software are clarified during the design phase, and changes are fed back into the drawing package with revision control, so the documentation always matches what has actually been built.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t

You receive the documentation in the electrical CAD format you work in: electrical diagrams, terminal lists, cable lists, bills of materials and labelling. The documentation is yours, and it is structured so it can be used directly for troubleshooting, modifications and extensions \u2014 even years after handover.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t

If the plant is going outside Europe, we design to UL requirements from the first revision. That is considerably cheaper than adapting a finished panel afterwards.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t

Control panel design can stand as a defined task on its own \u2014 or form part of a larger delivery where we also build and programme the panel. Whatever the split, we design for the plant as a whole: interfaces, documentation and operation.<\/p>\n\t\t\n<\/div>\n

What does engineering cover with us?<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t

Engineering with us covers the design of the electrical construction: standards and supply conditions, main and control circuit diagrams, 3D layout and the documentation set the plant will be operated by. The drawing package is kept up to date with revision control while the panel is built and the plant is commissioned.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t

That is why our design engineers do not sit on their own. They work closely with the switchboard workshop and the programmers \u2014 and with you. What is drawn is also what can be built.<\/p>\n\t\t
