Low voltage power distribution,
installation technology, building
automation, fi re safety and security
systems: working around the clock
to improve the quality of life and
the work environment.
Safe and intelligent energy distribution.
Whether in industrial systems or in build-
ings, every technical system depends on
the reliable supply of electrical power.
Even a short failure can have serious con-
sequences. Therefore, there is a demand
for systems that can always be relied upon,
even in the worst case scenario. With a
comprehensive range of power distribu-
tion products, you have your premises
easily under control, regardless of what
your specifi c requirements may be.
Our portfolio is the most extensive on the
worldwide market. It comprises innovative
switchboards, busbar trunking systems,
circuit breakers, switch disconnectors,
measuring devices, distribution boards,
circuit protection and building manage-
ment systems as well as switches and
socket outlets. The consistency, modularity
and intelligence of our components offer
a multitude of advantages – throughout
the entire life cycle of your systems and
buildings.
Our products and systems are part of
Totally Integrated Power™, our techno-
logical platform for consistent, economic
and safe power distribution in commercial
and industrial buildings from the medium
voltage level to the socket outlet. Our
portfolio is rounded off by a comprehen-
sive service and support offer which you
can always rely on. So, stay relaxed when
it comes to your power distribution. We
support you – systematically.
Building automation for
optimum comfort.
Building automation from Siemens provides
all-round products, systems, solutions
and services for heating, ventilation, air
conditioning, light and blind management
systems for both single rooms and entire
buildings. Our systems monitor, optimize,
and manage the individual components,
creating perfect interior conditions and
maximum comfort. On top of this, they
can be controlled from a single, user-
friendly control center. Intelligent building
automation saves energy and increases
corporate productivity.
Building automation for sustainable
energy effi ciency.
Solutions for building automation with
integrated energy services save energy,
lower operating costs and ease the strain
on the environment. We are constantly
looking into new ways of maximizing
energy effi ciency. For instance, our
systems take local and regional weather
forecasts into account when monitoring
and adjusting the settings of the various
components, enabling sensors and certi-
fi ed regulators to react even more quickly
to external infl uences. To help us better
understand the challenges of urbanization,
Siemens and McKinsey have conducted a
joint study that identifi es the most press-
ing needs when it comes to supplying
cities with more sustainable energy. The
results point the way towards our future
energy optimization portfolio.

A building should function effi ciently. It should use energy sparingly and
react automatically to external climate infl uences. And it should protect
people, properties and business processes against intrusion, theft and fi re,
as well as providing a maximum of comfort. For all of these reasons, a
growing number of building owners and operators are turning to products,
systems, solutions and services from Siemens.
