Control Cabinet Wiring 4.0

Most control panels are still wired simply by referring to a schematic diagram, but this process is time consuming and requires a high level of expertise. But now, there is a better way, which enables control panels to be wired more quickly, more easily and with much less risk of errors! Get the most out of the integrated value chain by investing in EPLAN Smart Wiring and Rittal control cabinets.

Wiring a panel is one of the most skilled jobs in the panel building industry. The reason is that the person wiring the panel must decide on the precise routing of the wires, to make sure certain wires are segregated where necessary and to keep track on the progress of the wiring. This process is very time-consuming and requires a great deal of skill.

The Innovative Way of Wiring 

Wiring a control cabinet no longer needs to be done by an expert. EPLAN Smart Wiring simplifies the wiring process so that anyone can do it! The software solution is available on either a browser or app. For ease of use, it visualises the wiring, enabling you to trace the route of each wire, the start and end of each wire and to track your progress of wiring the cabinet using a simple traffic light system. All of the data is 100% digital, providing up-to-date project information at all times, reducing the error-rate and saving money. All the data from EPLAN Smart Wiring is linked to the 3D virtual layout designed in EPLAN Pro Panel, which can also optimise the wiring route and automatically generate drawings and reports with details such as wire end treatment and wire numbers. For complete innovation in the value chain, you can use Rittal enclosures and components because they are high-quality, will be delivered to you quickly which boosts efficiency. You can simply drag and drop them into your EPLAN project from the EPLAN Data Portal and they will be automatically added to your Bill of Materials.
