Standards for design and manufacture of low voltage control panels

Lee Bowers

Hello

I am primarily a PLC engineer but more recently I have started to design electrical control panels.

The panels I produce are low voltage panels - hardwired logic, PLC control, motor control or inverter control.

What standards do I need to conform to?

I have read a little around the subject and  have found:

BS EN 61439

2006/95/EC Low voltage directive

| would like to produce a CE certificate with each panel.

Please excuse the potential vagueness of  my question, but I am hoping my initial question starts the conversation going

    Thank you again Andy. Yes, technical construction files are something I currently produce, but have yet to create one with a compliance table. Good advice and it is something I will include moving forward.
