The 2005 edition of the National Electrical Code (NEC) contains a new Article 409 entitled “Industrial Control Panels”. This article provides the installer and enforcement authorities with the minimum requirements to facilitate the safe installation and inspection of industrial control panels. The requirement is that the components of the electrical power circuit meet a defined Short Circuit Current Rating (SCCR) for the application and that the panel be marked with the appropriate SCCR.
