Even more room for manoeuvre
Space is precious – especially when it comes to high packing densities in electrical engineering.
Space limitations mean that panel builders and switchgear manufacturers have to accommodate more and more mechanical and electrical components in enclosures.
The planning and configuration of interior installations within compact enclosures can be both time-consuming and complicated.
Additional holes often have to be drilled in areas such as the side panels to fasten components outside of the mounting plate. This not only lowers the enclosure’s protection category, it is also adds significantly to the setting-up costs.
In response, Rittal has developed an interior installation rail. The rail can be easily mounted to the side, floor or roof areas of the AE compact enclosure, without any need for additional drilling through the enclosure panels.

Electrical safety doesn’t end with the inspection
Dan Sedgwick argues that electrical safety depends on more than the inspection – the records must survive long enough to support what comes next.
