The UL 1008 Standard for Safety – Transfer Switch Equipment encompasses stringent testing for reliable operation under various conditions. This standard helps OEMs and panel builders optimize product safety and performance in critical power applications.
Modern car washes use cutting-edge technologies and eco-friendly methods to enhance safety, sustainability, and customer satisfaction, contributing to greater profitability. Let’s go behind the scenes to see how advanced, intelligent equipment can help today’s car wash businesses achieve their goals.
Hybrid gensets blend traditional and alternative energy, offering businesses reduced emissions, fuel savings, reliability, and lower operational costs, aligning with green and cost-efficiency goals.
Enhancing EV charger uptime hinges on superior components, confronting reliability issues, and fortifying the charging infrastructure vital for the expanding electric vehicle sector.
Smaller-scale power generation systems are creating new opportunities for OEMs and panel builders. But they need to understand the unique feature that generator breakers must include.
UL 60335-2-40 is the North American safety standard for electrical heat pumps, air conditioners, and dehumidifiers — and the standard that governs how HVAC equipment safely uses today’s mildly flammable A2L refrigerants. Here’s what it covers, why it reshaped equipment design, and what OEMs and panel builders should verify with their component suppliers.
The apps available to monitor, manage, and maintain power control and protection devices offer instant benefits to both panel builders and end users. These apps also represent a simple but strong first step toward digitalization.
The size and complexity of traditional, multi-component automatic transfer switches created issues for panel builders and OEMs. But today, there are compact, all-in-one switch solutions that open the door to new applications and markets.
Energy costs are becoming an increasingly important consideration for facility managers when selecting motors and related control components for their conveyor systems. OEMs are taking notice and designing in the capability to monitor and manage power.
The CHIPS Act will open the floodgates of funding to increase domestic integrated circuit production. For panel builders, this creates a huge opportunity to serve production-equipment OEMs and chip-fabrication facility managers.
