Marking Switchgear

Marking Switchgear

Switchgear consist of connections, bus bars and insulation components used to control and protect electrical equipment in electric power systems. To ensure safe operation, switchgear components must be labelled with clear and durable markings.

Our universal marking system consists of: cable markers, markers for the power supply and control cables, terminal blocks, components, lights, push buttons and nameplates.

Identifying cables

Cables and wires are a critical component of switchgear equipment. Marking them needs to be quick, and the markers need to remain legible for years. Whether the requirement is for a simple identification code or a full address. Whether the marker is to be placed on the cable before it has been terminated, or after it has been fixed in place. Our range includes solutions from single digit markers to multi digit sleeves.


Labeling Lights and Push Buttons

Panel mounted pushbuttons, switches and indicator lights can be marked in two ways: using printable adhesive labels, or custom engraved legend plates. You can make these labels yourself in standardized sizes, using our equipment, or order them from us ready made, according to your specification.


Nameplates

An identification plate fitted to the outside of a control panel acts as a business card for its manufacturer. It can include contact information, product description or additional information, such as a CE mark, date of installation etc. The plate material must be selected according to the switchgear' environment. Cabinets operating under very challenging conditions could be identified using laser-engraved steel plates. Others can be marked using thermal-printed foam backed labels or laser engraved legend plates.


Terminal Block Markers

A terminal block is used to connect two or more wires. We make markers that fit most terminals from leading manufacturers. You can mark them yourself using our printing equipment or order them custom printed.


Component Marking

You can mark motor starters, relays, controllers and other components using various self-adhesive labels, printed on Partex equipment or a standard office laser printer. To mark modular components, we can offer polypropylene labels in standardized sizes or engraved plates to match the module width.


Cable Markers

Power and control cables entering the switchgear can be marked with addresses or KKS markings. The KKS system is a unique identification code used for power plants and CHP stations. Partex cable markers, for this purpose, allow multiple lines of description and a QR code, which can be read using a scanner or smartphone.


Cable Protection

Partex's cable protection products bundle wires and cables, and protect them from abrasion and the elements.
