Industrial Control Panels In Depth Look Part 1: Power Distribution

[@donmonarch9549]

New tech school grad for electricity & lucky enough to score an interview this Tuesday for a city job, entry level industrial electrician. These videos are great for my prep. Wish me luck.

[@UnOrthodox_Christian]

Nice. I got an engineering job designing the hardware for control panels and I’m about 2 months in and still am having a hard time understanding what all I need to do. Best of luck to you

[@Lalalacici]

This is absolutely amazing! You guys are doing great service for all the engineers around the world!

[@cairocoleman9275]

you all prolly dont care at all but does anyone know of a method to log back into an instagram account?? I was stupid lost the password. I love any assistance you can give me!

[@CommercialGasEngineerVideos]

True, this has helped me in the UK despite the differences.

[@addii578]

I love this man. I've commented on a couple of your videos before I think. I work in these panels every day. Hearing you go over some of this stuff helps to reinforce what I learn at work. We are doing a scada conversion on a waste water treatment facility. Some of our LCPs are huge, they contain 4 or 5 racks of PLCs. We run hundred of control wires to them coming from motor control centers, VFDs or to the equipment directly. I'm absorbing everything you say whether I know about it or not. I appreciate the series, keep up the good work.

[@RSPSupply]

Thanks for the comment! So glad to hear our videos have been helpful to you in the field. Let us know if you have any specific topics you'd like us to discuss next.

[@CalvinoBear]

As an electrically helpless mechanical guy this is so very helpful. Many basic questions, such as how to run power to multiple output connections without multiple input lines, etc, are answered by these videos. Thank you!

[@wisheye1]

This series is really awesome! Thanks for producing these. I’ve learned so much from watching your videos.

[@RSPSupply]

Thanks so much for the support!

[@Oblols]

I'm designing an industrial control box as a part of a senior design project for uni. These videos are invaluable for someone in my shoes who has never worked with or designed a panel before (especially as a mechanical engineer). Thank you so much for this diffusion of knowledge.

[@RSPSupply]

Great. Thanks for watching. Soon watch for a new series we are producing call or Panel Build series which will show you the build from start to finish in greater detail with detailed and time lapse footage. Hope you enjoy and and thanks again.

[@ajayrawat9525]

want to gain more electrical knowledge .how can we communicate?

[@Arachnikadia]

As a mechanical engineer, Ive designed only 2 of these panels before and they were much smaller with much less automation. Currently Im working on a much larger panel with much more automation and power requirements and this video series is invaluable to help me along. I especially like how you broke up the Power distribution into individual parts like that with separate terminal blocks for the neutral, ground and hot lines. Im copying that!

Electrical hacks

[@mytechexplanations6923]

This is totally electrical work,not mechanical....

[@hernansolis5404]

This is a great video. In fact, the whole series you have put out there is fantastic. Thanks for the education and keep up the good work! PS: Those Phoenix Contact power supplies look really good in the control cabinet... :)

[@RSPSupply]

Much appreciated!

[@CommercialGasEngineerVideos]

Finding these videos helpful in the UK even though the control panels are different. Similar principles.

[@BabyBoomersDoomer]

Fascinating video. ❤️ the safety

[@hemantdaulta1]

Seriously guys, thank you!

[@ABHILAV3012]

U r awesome and the way u present is fantastic

Hi, joining others to thank you for this priceless contents you share with us 👍🙏🙏🙏 One question, what are the two pairs of terminal blocks between the main ones and the supplemental breakers? Thanks in advance and again

[@MR-vc1yi]

Why to we ground the negative DC?

[@RSPSupply]

Grounding the negative DC terminal is important for safety, reducing electrical noise, stabilizing voltage, and meeting regulatory requirements. It provides a safe path for excess current in case of faults, improves signal quality, ensures stable voltage levels, and ensures compliance with electrical codes.

[@anthonycabral5623]

In what order is suggested to watch these videos if I don't know anything about industrial control panels?

[@MrCharliejaera]

This is Fantastic!!

[@livepurposefully2661]

I like ..much love from Rwanda

[@sharifskijr.1257]

I love you guys, I swear!

[@sehamallala9406]

Thank you for the super helpful vedios. I have a question on the wires cross section selection, what is the criterion to select it? Also, for the wires labels, is there a suggestion for a standard to use? Like (source device/destenation device) Thanks again.

[@nuismai]

Thank you so much for this informative video!

[@RSPSupply]

Glad it was helpful!

[@iamnickdavis]

So good. Thank you.

[@bishnubhattarai7933]

sir i need to undurstand control panel how find out please???

[@frankreiserm.s.8039]

When I need to turn off a circuit breaker in my home's service panel, instead of worrying about if I turned off the correct circuit breaker, I just turn off the main circuit breaker. It is easy and 100% safe, even though I have to reset all of the clocks in my house. Frank Reiser M.S.

[@michaelpilliod1039]

Why not just use the back plate as a ground distribution?

[@mohamedtalaat2470]

Wonderful videos, very helpful, I'd like to know how could you make this panel design on a software and the wiring connections, can you make a video for that ?

[@RSPSupply]

Thank you. We are producing a series right now on more more in depth building a control panel from start to finish. We will also have more in depth videos in the future. Thanks for watching!

[@mohamedtalaat2470]

RSP Supply can't wait 😃 thank you so much

[@RSPSupply]

Hi. Thanks for watching our videos. We now have a build series published with 7 videos and will have aprox. 30 videos in the series building a panel from the ground up from planning, designing, building and testing. This will show you how to create the drawings and wiring diagrams for panels.

[@electronisse]

Isn't the main grounding bus missing a jumper to the last two terminals?

[@chargrill8019229]

Hey dude what are those fuses with the little blue switches on? Cheers

[@Berkeloid0]

You mean the circuit breakers he talks about at 8:14?

[@jasminewilliams1827]

Nice video. I must admit that your videos are very helpful to me.. However, i will like to know the panel categories and areas of utilization. Also you said something about ac and dc power cable color coding as per NEC and UL please could you also help clear that more for me. Thanks and keep up the great job

[@damion1121]

The NEC doesn’t really have color requirements, they’re just recommendations.

[@abdessamedghettas7167]

thanks

[@RSPSupply]

You're welcome!

[@linossinkala7840]

Super super thankyou

[@RSPSupply]

Welcome 😊

[@Jrjulio95]

How can you make a voltage divider for analog input. I have 24V-DC on my panel and I want to get 12V DC. I know how to do it in a bread board but how you do the same thing on an industrial panel, is there is special terminals to do that job. I would appreciate your help.

[@RSPSupply]

You can add a voltage converter right before the 12 volt devices you want to power.

[@Jrjulio95]

@@RSPSupply where can I get a voltage converter?

[@navinsabban6521]

@@Jrjulio95 regulator like 7812 IC

[@nbultman_art]

So the Power Supply is technically a transformer since it's input from 120VAC to output 24VDC.

[@ryanrunke7030]

Transformers do not switch AC to DC. Power supply switches AC to DC and also steps the voltage down

[@dennisonyango2455]

Its a Rectifier and transformer in one.It converts AC TO DC and still steps it down to 24VDC

[@Berkeloid0]

1:09 Wow, you have power with 483 phases! I'd hate to balance the load across all those ;-)

please do you have a diagram

Please see our build series which will show building a panel form the ground up and will include designing with drawing and how to make them. Thanks for watching.
