Industrail equipment/electrical Enclsoures
(OP)
In industrial equipment, we want to have the enclousre for the power and controls be a part of the equipment, instead of building or buying a speprate enclosure and mounting it in the equipment or on the equipment.
What regulations is the enclsoure requrieed to conform to for the USA and EU?
How can Idetermine if the enclsoure is "suitable" for use?
