EC&I & Panel Build

Applied Integration provides full EC&I (Electrical, Control & Instrumentation) design and panel build services – from initial concepts through detailed design, manufacture, test and installation support.  We engineer control panels, marshalling cabinets and field systems that are safe, compliant, maintainable and built for long service in demanding industrial and mission-critical environments. Turnkey EC&I design, panel manufacture and wiring Integration with PLC/SCADA, safety systems, drives and networks Design for Manufacture (DfM) and Detailed Design & Qualification (DDQ) built into the lifecycle Compliance with relevant electrical, machinery and functional safety standards

What We Do

EC&I design

  • Load studies, protection concepts and single line diagrams
  • I/O schedules, loop definitions and wiring philosophies
  • Control system, safety system and instrumentation architecture
  • Cable routing, sizing and earthing/bonding strategies

Control panel & cabinet design

  • General arrangement (GA) layouts, door layouts and internal arrangements
  • Wiring schematics, terminal plans and parts lists/BOMs
  • Thermal management, segregation, EMC and maintainability considerations
  • Standardisation of layouts and components to reduce cost and lead time

Panel build & wiring

  • Assembly of PLC, remote I/O, safety and marshalling panels
  • Control desks, HMI enclosures and network cabinets
  • Precision wiring, ferruling and labelling to agreed standards
  • Factory build for new systems and replacement panels for life-extension projects

DfM & DDQ for EC&I and panels

  • Design for Manufacture reviews to minimise build time and errors
  • Optimised enclosure sizing, layout and wiring paths
  • Standard component sets and build templates for repeatability
  • Detailed Design & Qualification (DDQ):
    • Design checks and calculations
    • Standards compliance and design verification
    • Traceable review and approval records
