Securing Smart Energy and Building Technology

Smart meters, inverters, charging electronics, and connected home automation systems make energy use more efficient and buildings more comfortable. To ensure these systems operate reliably over the long term, their functionality, communication, and safety must be tested during production. MCD develops flexible inspection and test systems for high-volume production and a wide range of variants.

On the following pages, we’ll introduce you to our products for Energy Management & Smart Home and showcase real-world reference projects.
