The heart of a machine’s safety technology beats in the switchgear. A series of standards for electrical safety must be observed in Europe.
One important standard for electrical safety is EN 60204-1. Its counterpart in the USA is NFPA 79.
Although the two standards look very similar at first glance, there are definitely striking differences in line dimensioning, the type of fuse protection, and other areas.
But US manufacturers of machinery and equipment often do not know the regulations that apply in European countries. Complying with mandatory standards and the requirements of various European directives can be a confusing matter for manufacturers in the United States.
EAC shines a light into the darkness
We will prepare the complete electrical design in accordance with the European standard for you. We work with the EPLAN software — always, of course, using the latest release. EPLAN software is the most popular and powerful software for preparation of electrical designs and of pneumatic and hydraulic plans in Europe.
Validation: indispensable and required in Europe
Once the electrical design has been completed, it is validated in accordance with EN 13849-2. To ensure that the validation results will stand up to court review, we use the SISTEMA software, which is programmed and issued by the German Federal Institute for Occupational Safety and Health — only the best for our clients!
Following the successful validation, the construction of the switchgear is released.
