Industrial Plugs & Sockets | LED Post top Lantern


Gewiss have introduced their new, patented 67IB range of industrial plugs and sockets to exceed the safety of all existing products.

Wherever power is needed to run mobile machinery, or for machines which require user or operator removal such as machines in industrial kitchens and hospitals, as well as in industry, a safe connection is required every time. It is important to eliminate potential fire hazards caused by poor connections which generate hot spots, and protect machines and the people using them.

Made from high performance blue thermoplastic materials, the new Gewiss switches are guaranteed to provide excellent  long-term resistance to impact, UV rays and chemical agents.

The hinged opening front panel makes installation, wiring and maintenance operations so much easier. The rotary button is designed to avoid dust build-up and to ensure an ergonomic grip, and it is padlocked to prevent unauthorised use.

For innovative protection, Gewiss have integrated a C-curve, 6 kA circuit breaker into the front of the socket outlet, maintaining a compact size and protecting the load. Previously, this feature made the whole switch socket outlet bulky and expensive. The new design improves aesthetics, reduces the likelihood of the switch being hit by passing machinery, and reduces the cost of this safety feature.

MCC stands for motor control center. It consists of feeders for motors and blowers. Feeders are designed according to the motor rating. In most of the MCCs, auto/manual provision will be there. With manual provision motors can be operated manually. In auto provision external signal is required to start the motor. The signal is given by the control panel. Indicators for the motor operation also will be present in control panel.


Control panel consist of a controller. Controller may be PLC, DCS, relay or some other type. It gives digital signal input signal to the MCC panel to start the motor. Control panel works based on the PLC /DCS program or the relay logic.  Instruments are normally connected to control panel. Indications for the interlocks also will be there in control panel. Nowadays single panel is used of using separate control and MCC panel.

Electrical Switchgear Manufacturer | Electrical Power Distribution Switchgear


Combines Vista Underground Distribution Switchgear and Custom Metal-Enclosed Switchgear modules to provide an economic and reliable alternative to traditional metal-enclosed switchgear.

For applications through 34.5 kV requiring up to 25 kA symmetrical short-circuit duty, System VI Switchgear features a modular arrangement of S&C Vista® Underground Distribution Switchgear. Individual units of Vista gear include 600-ampere load-interrupter switches and fault interrupters, sealed in an SF6-insulated, elbow-connected tank. Using air-insulated bushings on one or both sides of the tank, multiple units of Vista gear can be joined together or to metal-enclosed switchgear modules such as air-insulated metering bays.

You never want to experience an electrical system failure when it could have easily been prevented by infrared thermal imaging scanning. Electrical systems and distribution systems are what drives industry and economy. The problem with this is that some systems are outdated or they are not energy efficient. Relying on systems that are old can bring problems such as system failure and the paralyzing of productivity. Some electrical components seem ancient and they are more a hazard than they are an asset.
