Sometimes the simplest solutions make the biggest difference. Take the Klemsan Klever connector, for example. No complicated termination process. Just strip the wire to the specified length, lift the orange lever, insert the conductor, and close the lever. It electrically connects all the wires that are applied, in a quick, convenient way. Klever has a…
Your Control Panel Is Only as Good as Its Connections!
Think about it. You can design the most sophisticated control panel, use the best PLCs, drives, and circuit protection, but if your electrical connections aren’t reliable, none of that matters. And that’s where the little things make a BIG difference. Take the Klemsan PRD Series Push-In Terminal Blocks, available from American Electrical, Inc. Designed for…

Relays: The Silent Workhorses of Industrial Automation
Some of the most important components in an industrial control panel are also the ones that receive the least attention. The relay is a perfect example. A relay doesn’t power the machine. It doesn’t run the PLC. It doesn’t display alarms or operator messages. Yet every day, it quietly switches loads, isolates control circuits, protects…
Are we paying for performance … or simply paying for a brand name?
Think about the millions of wire nuts installed every year. Homes. Commercial buildings. Industrial applications. They’re one of the most widely accepted connection methods in the electrical industry. And when contractors buy wire nuts, the conversation is usually pretty simple: Nobody insists there is only one acceptable wire nut manufacturer. Now compare that to DIN…
Why Push-In Terminal Blocks Continue to Gain Popularity
