Simplicity is the Future

More digital, automated and flexible: The demands on buildings and their installations are changing. This demands new skills and expanded requirement profiles from planners and installers. Pluggable electrical installation helps you keep pace with these new challenges, since it is perfectly tailored to the strict requirements of building installations: Using pluggable installation systems, you can easily combine installation and automation and plug your installation together the modern way instead of clamping it – quickly, reliably and without errors.

The way buildings are constructed is changing: They are becoming more environmentally-friendly and durable and need to retain their value longer. Buildings have extremely long service lives, typically have high energy consumption and mass flow rates and require a large volume of materials. Therefore, new building concepts, such as series construction with fewer and more environmentally-friendly materials, offer enormous potential for saving energy and resources. In this environment, pluggable connection systems are ideal for sustainable building installations that conserve resources. Using pluggable installation systems, you can precisely plan and assemble your installation in advance – saving you time and valuable materials.

Intelligent planning and digital modeling: Digitization also offers new opportunities in the building sector and is a driver not only of advanced building intelligence, but also of process optimization. Digital planning methods, such as BIM, are shifting more and more process steps to the initial phases. The goal is a consistent, efficient process. Pluggable electrical installation is the perfect way to achieve consistency from planning to documentation (Industry 4.0), since pluggable installation systems allow optimal advance planning and documentation – followed by fast, reliable, trouble-free installation.

In comparison to conventional installation, pluggable building installation offers especially short installation times on the construction site. The reason: Pluggable connector systems follow the trend towards factory pre-assembly and help solve the problem of ever-greater time pressure on construction sites. The installation is planned in advance. All that then remains is to plug the connections together on site. Furthermore, this can be handled by trained staff, allowing optimal deployment of available employees to complete the installation project more quickly.

Consistency, from the power supply to the load: In electrical installation, installing loads has proven an especially time-consuming step. Therefore, pluggable installation offers the greatest time savings in exactly those situations where the planning consistently follows a pluggable concept – meaning that the loads, system distribution boxes and other devices also have a pluggable power supply connection. The manufacturers of switches, outlets, lights, floor boxes etc. have recognized this too. To ensure maximum compatibility among all products and components, such manufacturers – for instance, system partners like our WINSTA^® system partners – equip their products with matching pluggable connectors at the factory. On the construction site, everything can then be plugged in quickly and reliably.

In construction, flexibility and adaptability are crucial. Modular building, in which prefabricated room modules are simply pieced together at the construction site, is the ideal way to meet these requirements. Efficient prefabrication minimizes costs, as well as construction and installation time. With a comprehensive range of solutions and services for planning and commissioning pluggable building installations, WAGO is a reliable partner for modular building.
