\n
• Component Sizing & BOMs: Select components for power distribution, motor circuits, VFDs, and industrial controls; generate accurate Bills of Materials (BOMs).
\n
• Engineering Calculations: Run SCCR (Short-Circuit Current Rating) and thermal/load calculations to match harsh environmental operating conditions.
\n
• Harsh & Hazardous Environments: Design electrical packages suited for rugged outdoor field deployments and hazardous location standards (Class I, Div 1 & 2).
\n
• Production & Shop Floor Support: Partner directly with assembly technicians and panel wiremen to guide builds, resolve layout issues, and assist through commissioning.
