Parts & Components

Control panel parts & components: It’s what’s on the inside that counts

While every control panel is different, there’s one thing that all have in common: Any quality control panel is comprised of quality control panel components. All control panels depend on varying collections and varying combinations of components, including but not limited to switches and disconnects, motor starters, soft starters, combination starters and more.

Remember: All control panels are not created equal. Every control panel has different features and is more often than not custom-built for a specific application. Always choose the control panel components and accessories that are right for you.

The importance of control panel enclosures

So you have your perfect control panel, now it’s time to protect it. Control panel enclosures come in a variety of sizes, NEMA ratings, materials and finishes. Bay Power carries a wide variety of control panel enclosures, both freestanding or wall-mounted, for both indoor and outdoor use. So whether you need to protect your indoor control panel from dust and dirt, or you need something heavy-duty, air-tight, and completely sealable to prevent corrosion from harsh outdoor conditions, there’s a perfect control panel enclosure to match every control panel.

Before looking for your control panel enclosure or deciding on finishes or materials, knowing the NEMA rating you require will help you get started on the right foot.
