Take the guess work out of short circuit current ratings with Schneider Electric’s Power Circuit Solutions.
Schneider Electric offers the widest selection of UL508A tested combinations for short circuit current ratings with a complete line of NEMA and IEC style motor control products. Our products have been laboratory tested with a variety of overcurrent protective devices including the new high performance line of Powerpact™ circuit breakers. http://www.SquareD.com/UL508A
Some like it hot – control panels are not in that elite group. When you are designing your control panels there are a few key points to keeping it cool.
- Heat rises – put the more sensitive products at the bottom
- Place the critical products next to the inlet or exhaust vent
- Make vent filters easily accessible so they can be changed
- A heat shield goes a long way on a rooftop in the summertime.
Your Business:
How do you leverage your resources, services and solutions to the market when you are a small control panel builder?
We all rely on word-of-mouth to build our reputation and business but there are other ways to grow your business. The most valuable resource to a small to medium sized Control Panel Builder is leveraging the relationships of the people that sell to you.
By engaging your distributors, your Schneider Electric Sales contact and any other resources available they can help proactively promote and sell your solution for you.
Business Success is about developing true win-win partnerships.
Reader Question of the Month:
Why do you send me an email each month and tell me what product I should buy?
In all honesty, this question is why we decided to rethink our entire approach to email communications. Our relationships with Control Panel Builders are more than pushing a product – we want to help you grow your business through partnerships, networking and understanding of the full Schneider Electric product offer.
We constantly get feedback from out Control Panel Builders who are not aware of certain products or solutions that we offer. We are committed to your business and if we can add value by introducing a new, new to you or improved product that is exactly what we are trying to do.
Thanks to Don D. in New Jersey for this question, you will receive a Telemecanique T-shirt in the next few weeks!
