IEC Standards

International standards (IEC standards) define the rules for switchboard

construction in order to meet safety and availability needs required by

the application. Complying with IEC standards is a direct measure of

the Quality of the equipment and provides assurance that the equipment

is fit for purpose. Conformity to the standards is today important

to maintain your business and to access new markets. We can guide you
