Compliance with North American standards

摘要

For panel builders looking to break new grounds and reach wider markets, North America is a perfect fit - but there are considerations you need to make and hurdles to jump before looking to export. It all comes down to the electrical standards that impact every stage of a machine's life cycle. If you are building panels for North American end users, you will need a strong understanding of not only the codes and standards but the changes within the region. With growing interest in North American standards and having had many conversations with control system manufacturers and OEM customers over several years, I wanted to take this opportunity to tackle some of the most frequently asked questions and the need-to-know information for global panel builders.
