Panels and transfer switches for clinics and hospitals

In a healthcare building the installation is organised by priority: some circuits must come back within seconds, such as operating rooms, intensive care or medicine refrigeration, and others can wait. That split is decided in the design of the panels and the transfer switch, together with the project’s electrical engineer.

We assemble the panels and transfer switches on our electrical assembly line, following the approved design. Reference codes such as the NEC or IEC standards are set by the facility’s designer; our job is to make sure every panel leaves assembled, labelled and tested as the drawing says.

Monitored transfer switches send an alert to your phone when the generator starts, when it fails or when it is due for maintenance. For a clinic manager that means finding out about a generator problem on a Tuesday afternoon, not on the day of the blackout.

We can also measure consumption, voltage and temperature on the main panels and alert you when something is out of the ordinary, for example a panel running hotter than usual.

The Energy Plan includes a thermal-camera check for hot spots, tightening of connections and cleaning, a transfer switch test with the generator and a report with measurements. It is the paperwork the administrator needs to show that the backup installation is checked regularly.

Every panel carries its QR-code plate with the inspections and tests carried out, the warranty and the maintenance history.

When a clinic adds a new area, the new panel is assembled complete in the plant, tested and delivered ready to connect. That keeps the outage needed for the connection short, scheduled at the time the medical management decides.
