Schneider Electric SA. The Group’s principal activities are electricity and automation management. The Group operates under three major segments, Electrical distribution, Automation and Control and Secured energy. Under Electricity distribution, the Group offers electrical products such as circuit breakers, switches, safety lighting, prefabricated busbar trunking, modular switchgear, Power Line Carrier communication networks and Voice-Data-Image solutions. Under Automation and Control, the Group offers products to control and supply power to equipment such as contactors, overload relays, soft starters, speed drives, sensors and operator terminals. The Group also offers configuration, programming and operating support software, communication networks and field buses. Under Secured energy, the Group offers APC’s UPS systems. The Group operates mainly in Europe, Asia Pacific and North America. In 2008, the Group acquired ECP Tech Services, Marisio, Wessen, RAM Industries, Xantrex and American Power Conversion (APC).
In past 20 years Schneider Electric released around 70 technical publications related to electricity and automation, and these publications are listed below.
