Featured Video
Ask the Expert - the modern control panel with John Burns
This edition complements an Ask the Expert video with DesignSpark’s Greig Cameron and John Burns, Target Market Manager and Lead Application Consultant for the Electrical Products Group at Siemens. In the conversation, John talked about motor starters and the innovations and advantages to look for when choosing switching and protection components. Downtime is money, so reliable, quality switching and protection components must be part of every control cabinet build. There’s a temptation to use less expensive parts, but the small increase in initial cost of quality components pays off quickly as downtime is greatly reduced or eliminated for the end user. As the quality of product within a control cabinet increases, so does the ability to diagnose a problem within that control cabinet.
Read a summary and watch the discussion between Greig and John HERE.
