How to size an electrical panel: the tools

There are several tools that we can use to correctly size an electrical panel.

Each component inside the panel, in fact, is characterized by thermal dissipation values, values ​​that cannot be ignored to ensure an optimal configuration. This information, together with the analysis of the installation environment conditions, help us to establish the dimensions of the enclosure and the cooling and ventilation necessary to ensure the ideal working temperature.

Fandis provides different levels of support for the configuration of the electrical panel, depending on the needs.
