Behind the scenes of every factory, there are lots of electrical panels that make the process work properly. These electrical panels can be distributed throughout the process or located in a special room like a control room or electrical room.

In this video, we're going to talk about one of the most important industrial electrical panels, which is the "Electrical Control Panel."

First, we'll quickly check the electrical panel enclosure and the nonelectrical devices that we should install inside that such as DIN rails and wiring ducts.

Second, we'll check out the electrical panel components step-by-step. We specifically talk about the PLC control panels.

We talk about, Miniature Circuit Breaker or MCBs and how we distribute the power between electrical panel components using them, and how MCBs protect our electrical devices against short circuit faults.

Throughout this video, you'll learn about electrical panel wiring. How we use power supplies, ordinary terminal blocks, terminal strip jumpers, fuse terminal blocks, MCBs, and so on to up and run our PLC control panel.

In the end, when all of the components of our control panel have been installed, wired up, and we turned on our main circuit breaker to power it on, I'll give you an actual practical example of how to connect a sensor to our PLC and use it in an industrial process.

👉 We also strongly recommend you to watch these videos about:

In future videos, I’ll explain:
- The details of each component of the electrical control panel,
- Electrical panel enclosures,
- Different types of electrical panels in a project,
- The electrical layout and architecture of a typical factory.
