Boards, consoles, cabinets and other bases, equipped with electrical switching etc. apparatus, for electric control or the distribution of electricity, for a voltage not exceeding 1000 V

CPC v2.1 Code: 46213

About boards, consoles, cabinets and other bases, equipped with electrical switching etc. apparatus, for electric control or the distribution of electricity, for a voltage not exceeding 1000 v

cpc code 46213 covers a wide range of electrical equipment used for the control and distribution of electricity at voltages up to 1000V. This equipment is essential for the safe and efficient operation of electrical systems in residential, commercial, and industrial settings. These products play a crucial role in the broader economy, enabling the reliable supply of power that underpins modern society and supports a wide range of industries and activities.

Production process

The production of equipment under cpc code 46213 typically involves a combination of metalworking, assembly, and electrical component integration. Manufacturers may use techniques such as stamping, welding, and machining to fabricate the metal enclosures and frames. Electrical components, such as switches, circuit breakers, and control modules, are then integrated into the assemblies, often using automated processes to ensure consistency and quality. Final assembly may involve testing and calibration to ensure the equipment meets safety and performance standards.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of equipment under cpc code 46213 include metal sheets, bars, and profiles, as well as a variety of electrical components, such as 46171 Electrical apparatus for switching or protecting electrical circuits, or for making connections to or in electrical circuits, 46172 Parts suitable for use solely or principally with the apparatus of heading 46171, and 46173 Boards, panels, consoles, desks, cabinets and other bases, equipped with two or more apparatus of heading 46171 or 46172, for electric control or the distribution of electricity, including those incorporating instruments or apparatus of Chapter 90, other than the switching apparatus of heading 46171. Additionally, manufacturers may require specialized tools, machinery, and testing equipment to ensure the quality and safety of the final products.

Production outputs

The main outputs of cpc code 46213 are the various types of electrical control and distribution equipment, such as switchboards, control panels, and distribution boards. These products are typically consumed by a wide range of industries, including 42 Electricity, gas, steam and air conditioning supply, 43 Water supply; sewerage, waste management and remediation activities, and 44 Construction. Additionally, the outputs of this industry may be used in the production of other electrical equipment, such as 46211 Electrical transformers, 46212 Static converters (for example, rectifiers) and inductors, and 46214 Electrical apparatus for line telephony or line telegraphy.
