All components are compatible with each other - for more sustainability, lower costs and first-class comfort.

Metering & monitoring

Helping the building and infrastructure sector improve energy efficiency through detailed metering and monitoring of the entire electrical system.

Our solutions cover all distribution levels for all areas to keep your business running smoothly. Our solutions are founded on the fundamental principles of safety, reliability, availability and scalability to increase efficiency in your facilities.

Explore our suite of products designed to deliver power your building can rely on:

Energy distribution

ABB's energy distribution systems integrate all types of electrical systems to provide reliable power to their end-users. While the monitoring and metering systems give visibility over the integrated energy use for the ability to improve the productivity and efficiency of your buildings' output.

Electrical distribution & protection

A reliable and energy efficient electrical distribution stops power surges or outages interrupting your business operations. ABB offers a wide range of electrical distribution devices to protect your building from overloads, short circuits, ground or arc faults, as well as meters to monitor your electricity consumption.

Low voltage Switchgear

ABB's low-voltage switchgear portfolios use smart automation to distribute electrical energy with electrical devices to control, protect and isolate electrical equipment in power distribution and motor control centre applications.

Medium voltage switchgear

Building and maintaining the electric power network in high rise buildings demands an uninterrupted power supply to crucial systems and equipment, such as heating, ventilation, fire protection, air conditioning, and building control systems. ABB's medium voltage switchgear is used to control, protect and isolate electrical equipment to ensure the reliability of the electricity supply.

A healthy building offers productive environments with optimal air quality and comfort, lighting and views, all made possible by our innovative products. We believe building managers and occupants alike should experience best-practice operations from reliable, sustainable, compliant products featuring the highest standards of safety.
