ANSI C18

ANSI C18, also known as the American National Standards Institute standards for industrial control and safety devices, sets global guidelines for designing electrical switches, relays, and safety devices used in industrial and commercial settings. It ensures these devices meet consistent safety, performance, and reliability standards, facilitating interoperability, proper operation, and regulatory compliance across different manufacturers and environments. Essentially, ANSI C18 helps ensure that safety and control devices function correctly and safely, reducing the risk of accidents and enhancing the reliability of electrical systems in workplaces.
