Industry & Occupation
Classification
Summary
Control panel assemblers assemble enclosures, install parts, perform internal wiring, and conduct operational inspections for control panels used in factories and plants.
Description
Control panel assemblers install components such as switches, relays, terminal blocks, and PLCs into control panel enclosures and perform electrical wiring. They read wiring diagrams, use tools (crimping tools, soldering irons, etc.) to wire accurately, apply labels, and bundle cables. After completion, they conduct insulation resistance measurements and operational tests, and if any defects are found, they identify the cause and make corrections. They work in teams, adhering to safety standards and quality criteria.
Future Outlook
As manufacturing automation and smart factories advance, higher-level electrical control technology and IoT-compatible skills will be required. In the future, automatic wiring robots may be introduced, but on-site assembly skills will still be needed.
