One of the most important priorities in the design and manufacture of control panels is ensuring that the system is properly protected against potential hazards. Electronic systems developed for industrial use will often need to operate in extreme environments, which means that the components, parts and assemblies used to put the control panel together need to be able to function safely in these conditions.
