The Rittal Configurator (RiCS) is a new system configurator for the Rittal system product. It will allow you to quickly select a custom-configured cabinet that meets your application needs. During the configuration process, you can view the configuration in real time through the visual 3D model. After the configuration is complete, you can download the complete system data, such as configuration lists, CAD drawings, etc. You can do this on the official Rittal website or via the EPLAN Data Portal.
Rittal and EPLAN combine software and hardware effectively. Through digital information, a digital twin model is established to form a digital closed loop of enterprise engineering design, procurement, production commissioning, operation and maintenance, and empower enterprises with intelligent design and production. In this series, the EPLAN & Rittal digital value chain focuses on the digital twin and presents three case studies:
1. During the design process, the product configuration system is used to complete the custom cabinet design
2. In the debugging and simulation stage, the thermal simulation system is used to implement thermodynamic simulation and intelligent selection of air conditioners
3. Promote intelligent production with the Rittal automation system
First of all, we will introduce Rittal's product configuration system. Rittal's Product Configurator is a fast, concise, and interactive product configurator. The product configuration solution interface is very simple to operate, and it can be operated in two ways.
1. It can configure the cabinet online using a wizard-style interactive web page
2. Execute on EPLAN Platform using the EPLAN Data Portal configurator
With just mouse clicks and simple keyboard input, it is easy to configure Rittal's cabinets and accessories, and create CNC machining solutions. CAD files can be created automatically, thus saving a lot of time in CAD design of cabinets; When the configuration is completed, you can save the configuration and inquire by e-mail, or you can place an order directly online. In this way, the cabinet will be sent directly to your company by logistics, and all the CNC machining work has been completed.
EPLAN's Data Portal configurator is directly integrated into Rittal's product configuration system. All data can be configured directly in the EPLAN Data Portal and downloaded directly to the EPLAN Pro Panel software for the construction of the digital twin. In this way, the product configuration of the cabinet will be seamlessly integrated with the 3D layout design of the Pro Panel, improving design efficiency and reducing design errors.
Here's a summary of the benefits of Rittal's product configuration system.
1. Seamless integration with EPLAN Data Portal, seamless connection between digital twin design and product configuration, reducing product model selection errors and improving design efficiency;
2. The interface is simple to operate, saving a lot of time for CAD model creation, CNC machining drawings and order production;
3. Direct ordering of CNC machined products, no need for factory configuration processing process, direct installation design, greatly reducing production costs;
4. Accurate order configuration and CNC machining, quality and quantity of the project.

Rittal cables – the performance difference of control cables
The control cable has the characteristics of moisture-proof, anti-corrosion and anti-damage, and can be laid in tunnels or cable trenches. Power cables are used to transmit and distribute high-power electric energy in the main line of the power system, and the control cable transmits the electric energy directly from the distribution point of the power system to the power supply of various electrical equipment and appliances.

Rittal cables – common faults in industrial control cables
1. Flashover fault: The industrial control cable is in a good insulation state at low voltage and will not have a fault. However, as long as the voltage value rises to a certain range, or a certain voltage continues to rise after a period of time, then it will instantly break through the insulator and cause flashover fault.
2. Long-term ...
