A control panel contains electrical components to control motors and equipment. It includes power and control cables to connect components, a bus bar to distribute incoming power supply, miniature and mould case circuit breakers for protection, an earth leakage circuit breaker to protect against electric current, an incomer to connect the basic supply, selector switches for operation modes, starters to safely start motors, overload relays to protect motors from overloading, timers to add delay, and contactors to control higher loads actuated by signals from controllers.

CONTROL PANEL Control panel is a cabinet which contains electrical components to control the motors and equipments.
CABLES Cables are used for the interconnection. Two types of cables are used. Power cable and control cable. 1. Power cables (which is used to connect the motor to panel component and panel to main supply) 2. Control cables (which is used to connect the control circuits)
BUS BAR Incoming supply is connected to bus bar and distributed from bus bar. It is normally made by Aluminum.
MCB (Miniature Circuit Breakers) MCB is a protecting device. It is used before the feeder. This should be selected according to the capacity of the feeder
MCCB (Mould Case Circuit Breaker) In most of the cases the MCCB used as an incomer for higher capacity feeders for better protection
ELCB (Earth Leakage Circuit Breaker) The ELCB is also known as RCCB. The device used for the protection against the earth leakage current and residual current. It should be fixed before the incomer
INCOMER The basic supply will connected to this incomer. It also called as SFU(Switch Fuse Unit). It contains one handle with fuse unit. Once it is turned ON the supply will pass to the next stage through fuse if any major fault occurs in side panel board, it will trip and it isolate supply.
SELECTOR SWITCH Selector is switch is used for ON/OFF purpose and for selecting the mode of operation like auto/manual.
Starters are used for starting the motors safely. Mainly two types of starters are there. DOL starters and Start to delta. Dol starter is enough for the motors with power less than 10 hp.
OVER LOAD RELAY Over load relay is for the protection of motor from the over load. It senses the load current and trips if it exceeds the limit. Current limit has to be set manually. It should be 80% of thefull load current.
TIMER
Operation of timer is similar to relay. But a delay is there for actuation. We can set the time delay manually according to our requirement. It is very much essential for start to delta conversion.
CONTACTOR Contactor is an essential component in the control panel. It actuates when the signal from the controller (PLC, Relay logic) comes. It is similar to relay. It is costlier than relay. It is used for a higher load.
