Electrical Panels

Electrical Panels
Through STI Electric, MSE Engenharia designs and manufactures medium- and low-voltage electrical panels for power distribution, protection and control. Integrated engineering, assembly and testing tailored to the needs of each installation, backed by in-house manufacturing and experience supplying projects in Brazil and abroad.
Power under control,
from design
to operation.
An electrical panel has to do more than distribute power. It must protect circuits, make operation easier and meet the requirements of each installation. Sizing, assembly and integration with other systems directly affect the reliability of the entire assembly.
‍
MSE combines engineering and in-house manufacturing to deliver panels aligned with the design and with actual operating conditions. From technical definition to testing, every stage prepares the equipment for integration into the facility's electrical infrastructure.
Integrated engineering
Specification and detailed design aligned with loads, protection and operation. Solutions developed from the real needs of each project.
In-house manufacturing
Assembly of medium- and low-voltage panels with oversight of every production stage. Greater control over execution and construction interfaces.
Mission-critical experience
Panels supplied for facilities where power continuity is essential, including data centers and international projects.
Testing and inspection
Equipment checks before shipment, according to the scope of supply. Greater predictability for installation and preparation for energization.

Quality that starts at the design stage and carries through manufacturing.

The reliability of an electrical panel depends on decisions made before assembly: sizing, component selection, internal layout and integration with protection and control systems. At MSE, engineering and manufacturing work as one to turn project requirements into equipment ready for its application. Testing and inspection complete the process before delivery.

How electrical panel manufacturing works

Manufacturing an electrical panel starts with understanding the installation it will serve. Power, voltage, load characteristics, environmental conditions and operating needs guide engineering decisions and the equipment configuration.

The stages of an electrical panel project

The process begins with gathering requirements and defining the scope. Next, engineering documents are developed, components are specified and technical alignment takes place. Once the design is approved, manufacturing, assembly, testing and preparation for delivery follow.

How long it takes to manufacture an electrical panel

Lead time depends on the complexity of the assembly, the quantity of equipment and component availability. Approval of technical documents also affects the schedule. Defining specifications and interfaces early in the process helps plan manufacturing and delivery.

How much an electrical panel costs

Cost varies with voltage, rated current, short-circuit withstand capacity, components, dimensions, and protection and automation features. To get a quote that fits the application, it is important to provide the technical requirements and the expected scope of supply.

Medium- and low-voltage panels: what's the difference

Medium-voltage panels perform switching and protection functions in supply and distribution sections within that voltage range. Low-voltage panels distribute power and protect the circuits that feed the loads. The choice depends on the electrical architecture and the needs of the facility.

How to integrate panels into the installation

Integration requires coordinating the equipment with cables, busbars, bases, access routes and supervisory systems. Defining these interfaces during design makes field installation easier and allows the necessary checks to be planned before energization.

We develop electrical panels,
connecting power, protection and control, from engineering to manufacturing, with testing before delivery.
