Electrical Power Distribution

Since February 2018, a listed heritage villa in Hamburg has been the home of a modern daycare facility. Shortly before it was handed over to the owners, an alarm was set off just in time by the AFDD because of a dangerous defect in the villa’s electrical installation.

The electrical engineering company Klebs+Hartmann is at the forefront of technical trends. To tap energy efficiency potentials, existing switchboards and power monitoring systems are expanded by communication-capable components that seamlessly fit into digitalization.

The German precision tool manufacturer Mader is committed to environmentally friendly and sustainable operation. Ensuring greater energy efficiency is therefore crucial to the company – and thanks to the power monitoring system from Siemens can now be achieved. 

The Saarland University Medical Center is growing closer together: All the clinics for Internal Medicine are to be joined in one centralized building complex. A genuine mammoth project, in which the integrated power supply must be guaranteed 100 percent – because in extreme situations, it saves lives.

With the Power Monitoring System and MindSphere from Siemens, the energy-efficiency experts at REXEL Austria GmbH, which is a subsidiary of the international REXEL Group, have not only digitalized their own energy consumption, saving money, but at the same time developed an entirely new business model.

The enormous quantity of some 125 million cubic meters of drinking water is distributed annually by the Lake Constance Water Supply to four million residents of Baden-Württemberg. The power consumption of the pumps in Germany’s largest water companyis also enormous. However, there was still potential for optimization. 

When it comes to the production of recycled cardboard for the folding box and plasterboard industry, WEIG-Karton's principles of safety, sustainability, and innovation are a driving force. That is why the company has implemented comprehensive modernization improvements to its electrical equipment and in doing so, opted for molded case circuit breakers from Siemens.

For the school community at the Carolus Magnus Secondary School in Übach-Palenberg, Germany, the highest safety standards are the utmost priority. 320 arc fault detection devices provide for preventive fire protection. This makes the installation among the largest of its kind in Germany.

Whether a disco, concert, or conference, large events require a venue capable of meeting every requirement and demand. The Berlin CityCube is perfect in this regard: Smart building technologies allow flexible utilization and meet the highest safety standards.

A broken hairdryer, a defective socket outlet, or a damaged cable – electrical appliances or installations are one of the most frequent causes of fire. These hazards not only pose a significant risk in the private domain, but also in passenger traffic. The City of Nuremberg is now taking action by installing innovative arc fault detection devices in its subway stations.

Low temperatures, moisture, and wetness – harsh ambient conditions pose fundamental challenges in cold stores and freezer rooms. The components built into these rooms must therefore be suitably robust. cool it Isoliersysteme GmbH installs the 5SM6 AFD (arc-fault detection) unit from Siemens in its doors.

From projectors in the classroom to ovens in the cafeteria and air conditioning throughout the building – maintaining a constant, safe power supply is absolutely essential in a school. The German School in Madrid therefore relies on efficient building technologies and innovative architecture to ensure its buildings are optimally managed.
