Electrical panels house contactors, relays, fuses, drives, power supplies, terminals and control components within a single system. In panels operating in industrial environments, dust, oil mist and various contaminants carried from the process environment may accumulate over time. Ventilation openings, connection areas and component surfaces are among the areas that should be inspected during periodic maintenance.
The objective of panel cleaning is to remove contaminants in a controlled manner without damaging electrical and electronic components. The compatibility of the cleaning chemical with plastic housings, cable insulation, labels and other surfaces, as well as with electrical components, should be evaluated. Excessive application of the cleaner and the transfer of dissolved contaminants to other areas within the panel should be avoided.
Before cleaning, the panel should be safely de-energized in accordance with established safety procedures. After loose dust and particles have been removed, a suitable cleaning product may be applied in a controlled manner to the areas where it is required. Following cleaning, connection points, cables, terminals and other components can be visually inspected for their physical condition.
Regular panel cleaning helps maintenance personnel identify loose connections, surface deterioration, signs of overheating and other physical changes more easily. Cleaning should therefore be regarded as a complementary process that supports planned maintenance and inspection activities for electrical panels.
