A low voltage distribution and control panel is the product of a long supply chain; the road from design to customer applications can be full of twists and surprises…

The issue with panels in general is compliance to standards. And, indeed, basic safety itself. At best a “grey” area. For regulators, consultants, underwriters and users alike the questions remain: How do I specify safety for my purpose? Which risks do I reduce to what extent in a given application with which measures? What is the value of all the documents and certificates presented to me? KEMA comes to the rescue with a number of services!

It is your responsibility to assess the project's risk level, It is our job to offer useful measures to control it.

KEMA offers a full range of services in the field of testing and certification of low voltage switch- and controlgear assemblies; from type testing only up to certification programs that include both type testing and verification of the quality processes.
