Simplex is a Lauritz Knudsen Franchisee for Enersys Panels. We build Enersys panels in our own facility, to the Enersys design, to IEC 61439-1 and 61439-2. Here is what that means for you, and what the range offers.
A Verified Design, Built Close to You
Under IEC 61439, a panel needs a verified design and a routine-verified build. With Enersys, the design comes from Lauritz Knudsen, and we build, test and commission each panel to it.
You get both halves:
- The design and its verification from Lauritz Knudsen.
- Engineering to your single line diagram, the build, routine testing and site support from a team you can call and visit.

What the Catalogue Says
The figures below are from the Lauritz Knudsen Enersys catalogue. The rating for your panel depends on its configuration, and we confirm it in the offer.

An optional glass door with IK10 impact rating is also offered. It is not part of the standard Enersys offer.
Compact Where It Counts
Panel room space costs money. The catalogue points to ACB feeder widths from 500 mm, flexible cable alley location and a choice of busbar location, so a board can be arranged around your room rather than the other way round.
Smartcomm: The Digital Side
Enersys comes with Smartcomm, Lauritz Knudsen’s set of digital tools across the life of the panel:
- Design: electrical installation sizing and simulation.
- Build and Commission: configuration software and communication testing.
- Operate: communication-ready panels with Energy Monitoring (EMS) and Power Management (PMS) software.
- Predict and Maintain: Smartcomm PREDICT for maintenance, with thermal monitoring of panel health, energy use and temperature.
Where Enersys Fits
Lauritz Knudsen positions Enersys for industry, emerging industries, residential and commercial buildings, and water and wastewater. Those are the same sectors we work in, from sugar and steel to city water schemes.
