UL 508A control panels for machines shipped to the United States
If your machine is going to the American market, the panel cannot be the European one. We design and build it to UL 508A and NFPA 79, with the components these standards require.
What changes compared with a CE panel
We have solid experience on both markets. The main differences:
Dedicated components
Protection devices, fuse holders, terminals and other components with the approvals the American market requires, different from those used in Europe.
North American voltages and wiring
Supplies such as 480Y/277 V and conductors sized in AWG.
Short-circuit current
The panel must be assessed against the plant short-circuit current (SCCR) and the rating shown on the nameplate.
English labels and warnings
Nameplates, hazard warnings and markings in the format required in the United States.
Documentation in English
Drawings and documents ready for the end customer and for on-site inspections.
Software and HMI in the same project
We can also take care of the PLC program and operator screens, in English.
