00:00:01.735 --> 00:00:03.036
Our first step

00:00:03.036 --> 00:00:06.773
in the process of building
a panel is always receiving the drawings.

00:00:06.773 --> 00:00:10.710
So our engineers always will produce
our drawings for us, print them out.

00:00:11.277 --> 00:00:15.048
We will receive them, and around
the same time we will receive our panels.

00:00:15.448 --> 00:00:17.150
Our enclosures don't come put together.

00:00:17.150 --> 00:00:20.186
They come as an empty enclosure
and an empty panel.

00:00:20.520 --> 00:00:24.824
And the very first thing we do is install
our wire ducts and our DIN rail.

00:00:24.991 --> 00:00:27.260
So this is what allows us
to put our components on

00:00:27.260 --> 00:00:30.397
and make sure everything is neat
and orderly inside the panel.

00:00:31.264 --> 00:00:34.467
Once all of our components are on
and put in the right places,

00:00:34.467 --> 00:00:35.869
we begin the wiring process.

00:00:35.869 --> 00:00:38.405
We really make sure
that every wire is neat,

00:00:38.405 --> 00:00:41.241
every wire is straight,
and every wire label

00:00:41.241 --> 00:00:45.011
is exactly the same because our quality
is what we're known for.

00:00:46.012 --> 00:00:47.547
Our enclosure comes in empty.

00:00:47.547 --> 00:00:50.550
We have this device in the shop
called a bridge crane,

00:00:50.984 --> 00:00:54.521
and the bridge crane
allows us to lift the panel

00:00:54.954 --> 00:00:57.957
because once you have a lot of the
components on it, it gets pretty heavy.

00:00:57.991 --> 00:01:02.162
So we lift the panel with the crane
and lower the panel into the enclosure.

00:01:02.929 --> 00:01:06.266
We bolt it down, and then we use the crane
to lift the enclosure.

00:01:06.833 --> 00:01:10.003
Once the enclosure is up, we usually wire

00:01:10.003 --> 00:01:12.539
things like our disconnects
and our transformers.

00:01:12.539 --> 00:01:15.542
Those are external things that we install

00:01:15.842 --> 00:01:20.013
to the enclosure on the outside
while we're doing the panel wiring.

00:01:20.013 --> 00:01:23.783
Once the panel is wired,
we then have a checklist we go through.

00:01:24.150 --> 00:01:25.952
We'll check our torque.

00:01:25.952 --> 00:01:29.255
So making sure everything's tight,
nothing's loose, nothing's jiggling,

00:01:29.255 --> 00:01:30.690
nothing's moving around in there.

00:01:30.690 --> 00:01:33.626
We'll check all of our labels,
make sure everything is labeled.

00:01:33.626 --> 00:01:35.195
Every wire has a label.

00:01:35.195 --> 00:01:36.896
Every device has a label.

00:01:36.896 --> 00:01:39.099
Everyone knows what everything is.

00:01:39.099 --> 00:01:40.800
Our engineers will run their test.

00:01:40.800 --> 00:01:43.770
Make sure each component is working
the way it's supposed to work.

00:01:43.770 --> 00:01:46.406
We test everything before it leaves
the shop.

00:01:46.406 --> 00:01:47.707
We'll make sure we have our labels.

00:01:47.707 --> 00:01:49.442
We'll have our safety stickers put on

00:01:49.442 --> 00:01:52.378
and then once it goes through the checkout
process, we crate it up.

00:01:52.378 --> 00:01:55.115
And then we'll slap a packing list
on it. And it's out the shop.
