Hartek India to supply electrical low-tension panels for 20 jails in Punjab

Hartek India — the manufacturing arm of the Hartek Group — will supply electrical low-tension (LT) switchboard panels for a rooftop solar project coming up in about 20 jails spread across 15 districts of Punjab.

The low-voltage electrical panels to be supplied for installations to the tune of 5 megawatt (MW) would help in optimum distribution of an estimated 60 lakh units of electricity to all the jail buildings, a company statement said here on Tuesday.

“Providing a protective fuse for each circuit in a common enclosure, these panels act as a shield against electrical overloads and short circuits while distributing electricity throughout a facility. Since power breakdowns can cause huge generation losses and plant closures, electrical panels play a crucial in avoiding such crises,” the statement said.
