signals coming in, logic that's being worked through and executed, and then the outputs that are being uh sent to control with the equipment that we're trying to control. 00:04:33.199 --> 00:04:37.759 So, in essence, you can think of a PLC as like uh decision maker. 00:04:37.839 --> 00:04:38.399 That's it. 00:04:38.639 --> 00:04:50.639 So if a sensor is giving a signal that a tank is almost full, the PLC's logic may stop a pump or close a valve or open a valve, right? 00:04:50.879 --> 00:04:51.920 Just to control that. 00:04:52.079 --> 00:05:03.360 Or if you have a temperature rising too high, uh that sensor within the logic may trigger a cooling fan or send an alarm through a through a human machine interface, an HMI. 00:05:03.439 --> 00:05:06.000 We're gonna talk about those as well as we dig into this. 00:05:06.160 --> 00:05:07.279 But that's how it works. 00:05:07.439 --> 00:05:16.160 So modern PLCs today, they used to be just standalone systems, and they're still have some of those where you have a standalone on a piece of equipment. 00:05:16.319 --> 00:05:19.040 But most PLCs now are networked. 00:05:19.199 --> 00:05:23.360 So this brings you a whole nother level of communication between systems. 00:05:23.519 --> 00:05:29.600 This gives you the ability to do remote diagnostics and you can integrate it with you know your plant SCADA systems. 00:05:29.759 --> 00:05:32.879 So the PLC has not just a standalone anymore. 00:05:33.040 --> 00:05:48.639 So whether you're standing in front of that a piece of equipment or like a multi-based MCC, you or even at home now through remote monitoring, it's pretty you can bet pretty sure that a PLC is doing a lot of that control. 00:05:48.800 --> 00:05:53.199 Okay, so that's that's a big big piece of the components that we want to make sure you understand. 00:05:53.360 --> 00:06:01.759 Again, with a PLC, you also have your different modules, your input modules, your output modules, your your your different types of temperature uh reading reading modules. 00:06:01.920 --> 00:06:04.079 All you have your communication modules. 00:06:04.160 --> 00:06:07.680 So there's so many ways that you can build onto the PLC now. 00:06:07.839 --> 00:06:10.319 And again, we support several manufacturers out there. 00:06:10.399 --> 00:06:14.639 So if you want to find out what manufacturer we serve in your area, just reach out to us. 00:06:14.720 --> 00:06:16.560 We'd love to have a conversation with you. 00:06:16.720 --> 00:06:18.720 We have experts across all our geography. 00:06:18.800 --> 00:06:29.439 So if it comes down to a PLC and you got a question, I can guarantee you somebody at the electrical equipment company is gonna be able to answer it in a confident way or at least point you in the right direction. 00:06:29.600 --> 00:06:32.480 Okay, now you got the PLC doing that. 00:06:32.720 --> 00:06:38.240 Then you have to think about well, how do we as operators interact with the equipment? 00:06:38.480 --> 00:06:40.319 Well, we need a window to do that. 00:06:40.639 --> 00:06:46.639 And industrial control panels, that's often the HMI or the human-machine interface. 00:06:47.519 --> 00:06:48.720 We love our acronyms, right? 00:06:48.800 --> 00:06:49.680 That's the way it works. 00:06:49.839 --> 00:06:56.319 So the PLC handles the logic that HMI is the operator window into the process. 00:06:56.560 --> 00:07:05.040 So if you walk up to a panel, typically you're gonna see some type of touch screen with gauges or buttons or actual process graphics. 00:07:05.199 --> 00:07:06.319 That's the HMI. 00:07:06.399 --> 00:07:07.279 That's what you're looking at. 00:07:07.360 --> 00:07:15.600 It's giving you feedback, it gives the technicians and the operators real-time visibility into what's happening. 00:07:15.759 --> 00:07:20.319 Okay, so it gives you machine status, may show you different types of alarms. 00:07:20.399 --> 00:07:32.160 Uh, it could show you some big like uh key performance indicators like pressures or flows or speeds, but a good HMI, what I like the most about them, they mirror the process. 00:07:32.399 --> 00:07:39.279 So you can walk up and you can visually connect with what you're seeing on the screen to what's happening on the machine itself. 00:07:39.439 --> 00:07:41.519 I mean, that's that's the really the beauty of it, too. 00:07:41.600 --> 00:07:44.319 You don't have to think about, well, okay, I wonder what this is here. 00:07:44.399 --> 00:07:48.720 No, you can see it on the HMI and then look and see that equipment working. 00:07:48.879 --> 00:07:53.839 And with an HMI, you also have the ability sometimes for control. 00:07:54.240 --> 00:08:00.480 You can start or stop a process, you can reset fault, you can adjust set points, all without opening the panel. 00:08:00.560 --> 00:08:02.879 So it really gives you a safe way to do this. 00:08:03.120 --> 00:08:13.759 So a lot of times operators rely on color-coded indicators, you know, like green for running or red for stop or yellow for a fault to help them make quick in-the-moment decisions. 00:08:13.920 --> 00:08:20.800 So it's a perfect blend of automation, which is important, but also that human oversight. 00:08:20.959 --> 00:08:28.879 We cannot miss the human element and how important that is in an um efficient industrial operation. 00:08:29.120 --> 00:08:33.519 All right, so now, inside of an industrial control panel, what else are you gonna have? 00:08:33.679 --> 00:08:35.200 Well, you're gonna have power distribution. 00:08:35.519 --> 00:08:37.360 So this is kind of like the lifeline. 00:08:37.519 --> 00:08:44.159 So every control panel must safely manage and distribute power. 00:08:44.639 --> 00:08:45.679 So this begins. 00:08:46.240 --> 00:08:47.440 Easiest way to think about it. 00:08:47.679 --> 00:08:49.360 What's the incoming source? 00:08:50.000 --> 00:08:51.039 Need to understand that. 00:08:51.200 --> 00:08:56.240 And then it flows through a series of key components to help ensure

reliability and protection. 00:08:56.320 --> 00:09:00.320 Because you don't want anybody to get hurt, because in any industrial control panel, you can get hurt. 00:09:00.480 --> 00:09:08.159 So the first thing I always like to look for if you walk up to an industrial control panel, particularly if you're gonna be working in it, is understand what a disconnect is. 00:09:08.559 --> 00:09:09.360 Just understand that. 00:09:09.440 --> 00:09:11.200 This is like your master safety switch. 00:09:11.360 --> 00:09:13.200 So look for the disconnect handle. 00:09:13.360 --> 00:09:16.399 Usually it's mounted on the door of the enclosure, okay? 00:09:16.639 --> 00:09:20.080 And it's a very it's the first step for safety because you want to be safe. 00:09:20.320 --> 00:09:27.120 The disconnect gives you a mechanical way to cut off the incoming power to the rest of the panel. 00:09:27.519 --> 00:09:34.559 So if you're gonna be doing any maintenance or troubleshooting, this is important to make sure that we're de-energized, okay? 00:09:34.799 --> 00:09:42.320 And look, a clearly labeled disconnect isn't just a good design choice, it's actually required, it's a safety standard. 00:09:42.399 --> 00:09:50.320 So N FPA 79, you have UL UL508A, they have these governing standards as far as panel construction. 00:09:50.399 --> 00:09:51.519 So just be careful. 00:09:51.679 --> 00:10:00.960 Like you never want to go inside of a live industrial control panel unless you're fully trained and completely understand the risk points involved. 00:10:01.039 --> 00:10:06.000 So to disconnect, easy way, walk up to a panel, understand what that disconnect is. 00:10:06.080 --> 00:10:06.320 Okay. 00:10:06.480 --> 00:10:11.519 All right, second piece of power to consider are tissue transformers, right? 00:10:11.679 --> 00:10:15.440 You gotta you better you have to be able to convert that voltage into a usable form. 00:10:15.600 --> 00:10:21.200 So industrial facilities usually have higher voltages coming in to run their equipment. 00:10:21.279 --> 00:10:25.919 You know, you can have 4160, you can have 2300, you can have it down to 480 volts. 00:10:26.000 --> 00:10:27.039 That's pretty common. 00:10:27.279 --> 00:10:37.600 But control devices are not gonna be hooked up to 480 typically, usually they're gonna work at lower voltage, like 120 volts AC or even 24 volts DC. 00:10:37.679 --> 00:10:39.039 So, how do you do that? 00:10:39.440 --> 00:10:42.960 Well, you have to get some transformers, and no, we're not talking about the movie. 00:10:43.039 --> 00:10:44.879 All those movies were awesome. 00:10:45.039 --> 00:10:46.799 No, this is a different type of transformer. 00:10:46.960 --> 00:10:54.000 So when you open a panel, you'll usually see a metal core component mounted at the low side of the back panel. 00:10:54.080 --> 00:10:56.240 Usually transformers are towards the bottom. 00:10:56.399 --> 00:10:56.720 Why? 00:10:56.879 --> 00:10:58.000 Because they're heavy, right? 00:10:58.240 --> 00:10:59.840 These things got some weight to them. 00:11:00.000 --> 00:11:06.080 So these what you'll find with these with these devices, uh, usually they're control transformers, is what they're called. 00:11:06.240 --> 00:11:13.360 So what they're supposed to do is to step down the voltage safely so that you can utilize it internally. 00:11:13.600 --> 00:11:16.559 And so understanding this voltage flow is crucial. 00:11:16.799 --> 00:11:21.519 So you got your high voltage in and you got your low voltage control power out. 00:11:21.759 --> 00:11:27.840 So it's just a quick way you can open up, you can see, okay, here's my power coming in, here's it's going through the disconnect, maybe it's going through a breaker. 00:11:28.000 --> 00:11:29.919 At what point does it get broken down? 00:11:30.080 --> 00:11:32.960 That's your control transformer, your transformers. 00:11:33.039 --> 00:11:33.279 Okay. 00:11:33.360 --> 00:11:33.600 All right. 00:11:33.679 --> 00:11:38.960 Now, the third from a power standpoint that we want to talk about are your power supplies. 00:11:39.200 --> 00:11:44.480 Because you got to be able quite often to get DC conversion for your field devices. 00:11:44.559 --> 00:11:51.039 So after your transformer, your power supplies can convert that AC, typically to about 120 volt. 00:11:51.279 --> 00:11:58.799 That's usually what you're going to see, into a DC voltage, like a 24 volt DC, that's highly utilized in industrial control. 00:11:59.120 --> 00:12:06.240 And this low voltage output power helps your devices like your sensors, your relays, and your PLC input cards. 00:12:06.480 --> 00:12:07.039 All right. 00:12:07.360 --> 00:12:15.919 So when you identify a small metal box with a cooling vent, maybe like an LED indicator that's labeled 24 volt DC output, guess what? 00:12:16.080 --> 00:12:17.440 You found the power supply. 00:12:17.600 --> 00:12:18.320 Hallelujah. 00:12:18.480 --> 00:12:26.480 So it's the unsung hero that ensure everything kind of talks correctly without lowering the risk of shock, right? 00:12:26.559 --> 00:12:30.080 So this is very important just to understand what to look for from a power standpoint. 00:12:30.240 --> 00:12:30.799 All right. 00:12:31.039 --> 00:12:33.279 Now let's just kind of walk through one-on-one. 00:12:33.600 --> 00:12:38.080 You walk up to a panel, how do you quickly identify what you're seeing? 00:12:38.320 --> 00:12:40.080 And look, this can be intimidating. 00:12:40.159 --> 00:12:49.039 I remember when I was first into the industry and I would walk up to these panels, and I would be like, I don't even know what in the wide world of sports is going on here, right? 00:12:49.279 --> 00:12:50.960 So it's okay. 00:12:51.200 --> 00:12:57.840 It's good to have a healthy respect for what's going on inside industrial control panels because they can't hurt you if you're not careful. 00:12:58.000 --> 00:13:01.600 So if you're new to automation, this is this is maybe helpful for you.

00:13:01.759 --> 00:13:03.519 But because just just know this. 00:13:03.759 --> 00:13:10.080 Once you understand the structure, it starts becoming to make a lot more sense, and it's just like reading a map. 00:13:10.159 --> 00:13:14.879 Okay, so here's a a very simple but systematic way to approach it. 00:13:15.039 --> 00:13:17.200 Number one, start with power. 00:13:17.519 --> 00:13:21.759 I want to know first out at the gate what can cause me the most harm. 00:13:21.919 --> 00:13:23.039 And that's the power. 00:13:23.200 --> 00:13:27.200 So identify the incoming power, the disconnect, follow the path. 00:13:27.279 --> 00:13:39.200 Again, it could be through a circuit breaker or through some type of fuse block to understand where it goes to the transformer and the power supplies, looking for those fuses, those breakers, all those things that isolate the different circuits. 00:13:39.440 --> 00:13:41.200 Try to understand the power flow. 00:13:41.279 --> 00:13:41.600 Okay. 00:13:42.000 --> 00:13:44.879 Then from there, you may want to try to locate the brains. 00:13:44.960 --> 00:13:46.240 Like find a PLC. 00:13:46.399 --> 00:13:53.120 Usually the PLC, quite often, is just in the middle somewhere because you have a lot of wiring coming to it by the time the wiring is coming in from the bottom. 00:13:53.279 --> 00:13:54.399 So just look for there. 00:13:54.559 --> 00:13:59.440 You can look for labeled inputs and output terminals, and then check the communication ports as well. 00:13:59.600 --> 00:14:03.759 You'll see different types of communications from Ethernet to ProfiNet to Siri. 00:14:03.919 --> 00:14:08.799 I mean, all these different types of communication protocols used for networking. 00:14:08.960 --> 00:14:10.320 And then look for the interface. 00:14:10.399 --> 00:14:12.480 Like, how am I going to understand what's going on? 00:14:12.720 --> 00:14:14.799 Usually, this is like an HMI screen. 00:14:14.960 --> 00:14:20.879 Lots of times they're cut out in the front door, or sometimes they'll even be remotely mounted terminals. 00:14:21.440 --> 00:14:30.960 Whatever the particular setup is, I've seen term HMIs that have connected to the where they mount to the outside, so you don't actually do a cutout, they're just bolted to the outside. 00:14:31.120 --> 00:14:32.879 There's lots of different ways to have that. 00:14:33.039 --> 00:14:37.200 So once you have a chance to see the HMI, then see what it's telling you. 00:14:37.279 --> 00:14:40.559 See what if it's showing any pressure or temperature or speed or anything like that. 00:14:40.720 --> 00:14:44.399 Just understand what's going on inside the on the HMI. 00:14:44.559 --> 00:14:54.960 And then the organization overall, you know, just as you start working inside different manufacturers and different manufacturers of equipment as well, you'll notice patterns. 00:14:55.039 --> 00:14:59.200 And you'll usually see a pattern layout for efficiency. 00:14:59.360 --> 00:15:03.279 So you'll see

power components at the bottom, because they're the heaviest and create the most heat. 00:15:03.440 --> 00:15:05.360 You'll see control components towards the middle. 00:15:05.519 --> 00:15:10.080 You have IO terminals or field connections, usually are on the top or the side. 00:15:10.240 --> 00:15:12.159 So all that stuff is pretty standard. 00:15:12.240 --> 00:15:14.240 And then you'll hear some stuff called den rail. 00:15:14.320 --> 00:15:18.799 So den rail is nothing but a piece of metal strip where these components can snap to it. 00:15:18.879 --> 00:15:30.960 So if you see like a metal strip on the back plane, that's usually what you use to connect the uh components directly inside the control panel versus like bolting them on directly. 00:15:31.120 --> 00:15:41.360 And if you do that, you also notice usually if you open up a panel, you'll see these things, they they're like they're rectangle, lots of times they're gray, they're long strips, and it's like what is going on? 00:15:41.440 --> 00:15:43.840 It almost looks like a little channel or something, right? 00:15:44.080 --> 00:15:46.320 What that is, is wiring duct. 00:15:46.399 --> 00:16:00.960 Okay, and that allows you as a panel builder to keep your cables, all your all your wiring completely uh neat and rounded and labeled and out the way, or else if you didn't have that, you have wires everywhere. 00:16:01.120 --> 00:16:02.639 It just it would be crazy, right? 00:16:02.799 --> 00:16:10.159 So then the last thing, always check for safety and documentation, like check your grounding bars, check to make sure everything is clearly labeled. 00:16:10.320 --> 00:16:12.240 Reference to wiring diagrams, all right? 00:16:12.399 --> 00:16:14.720 Usually you can often find the wiring diagram. 00:16:14.799 --> 00:16:20.879 And if you open a control panel door, most often there's a sleeve on the inside of that door. 00:16:21.120 --> 00:16:22.159 Check it out right there. 00:16:22.399 --> 00:16:26.240 Because those blueprints can be so invaluable, particularly when it comes to troubleshooting. 00:16:26.320 --> 00:16:26.559 All right. 00:16:26.639 --> 00:16:28.399 So this is you'll see technicians. 00:16:28.559 --> 00:16:31.279 Technicians know where these drawings are. 00:16:31.440 --> 00:16:32.639 I can promise you that. 00:16:32.799 --> 00:16:40.399 But the more you practice, my encouragement to you, the quicker you're gonna develop an instinct for identifying the panel anatomy. 00:16:40.480 --> 00:16:40.799 Okay. 00:16:41.120 --> 00:16:47.600 And over time, you'll just be able to quickly identify power flow, spot false, or identify missing termination. 00:16:47.679 --> 00:16:48.879 It's just gonna come natural. 00:16:48.960 --> 00:16:52.240 It's just one of those things that just comes with reps, okay? 00:16:52.480 --> 00:17:02.240 So as we think about this, again, if you want to have a framework for reliability within an industrial control panel, it all comes down to organization and maintenance. 00:17:02.399 --> 00:17:08.799 Because a most advanced automation system is only as reliable as the installation and documentation that comes with it. 00:17:09.039 --> 00:17:28.000 So, a well-designed control panel, I love to see brand new control panels because they exhibit craftsmanship, clean wiring, consistent labeling, very logical layout of the components, and that is going to just produce a very robust and reliable industrial control panel. 00:17:28.160 --> 00:17:32.480 And some key elements to think about when you're thinking about longevity and maintainability. 00:17:32.720 --> 00:17:33.839 Think about your wiring duck. 00:17:33.920 --> 00:17:36.319 We've already talked about it once, but that wiring duck is important. 00:17:36.400 --> 00:17:38.720 You want to make sure everything is organized, protected. 00:17:38.880 --> 00:17:40.880 You also want to standardize on the end rail. 00:17:40.960 --> 00:17:44.880 That just makes easy for mounting relays and breakers and thermal blocks. 00:17:45.119 --> 00:17:47.359 Take them all, take them off so much easier. 00:17:47.519 --> 00:17:53.200 Then you have to think about your fuses and your circuit breakers because you want to make sure that you're protecting for your overcurrent connections, right? 00:17:53.279 --> 00:17:56.319 So this is very important with electronic devices. 00:17:56.640 --> 00:18:00.240 You have your overloads, gotta be super careful about taking care of your motors. 00:18:00.319 --> 00:18:02.079 So the overloads are so important. 00:18:02.160 --> 00:18:09.680 So your motor tripping currents, uh, if you if they're drawing too much current, draw, you want to be able to shut them things down safely with not causing any harm. 00:18:09.839 --> 00:18:11.200 Don't want to burn up any motors. 00:18:11.359 --> 00:18:12.480 Overloads are important. 00:18:12.640 --> 00:18:14.160 Then you have your grounding system. 00:18:14.319 --> 00:18:15.200 Why is that important? 00:18:15.359 --> 00:18:20.880 Because it protects your equipment from uh stray voltages and it also protects your people, okay? 00:18:21.039 --> 00:18:22.880 And then those accurate drawings. 00:18:23.200 --> 00:18:26.079 Really, can't emphasize this enough. 00:18:26.319 --> 00:18:27.680 Don't miss that part. 00:18:27.839 --> 00:18:33.680 If you're working with a vendor or a manufacturer or whoever's bringing in some equipment, you need to have the drawings. 00:18:33.839 --> 00:18:40.559 The drawings are going to be your Bible that you go back to when you're trying to understand what's going on or you're trying to troubleshoot. 00:18:40.720 --> 00:18:42.000 You want to have accuracy there. 00:18:42.079 --> 00:18:55.680 And here's another thing to consider as you change equipment or repair equipment, update the drawings so that the team will understand what's going on if they have to work on it in the future. 00:18:55.759 --> 00:18:56.079 Okay. 00:18:56.400 --> 00:19:11.599 So, ECO, we've long, long emphasized

fundamentals because they make a tangible difference in how a system lasts, the longevity, and ultimately how quickly a tech can get that equipment back online. 00:19:12.079 --> 00:19:13.200 And that's what it's all about. 00:19:13.279 --> 00:19:15.839 We want to get you back on back working and understanding. 00:19:16.000 --> 00:19:22.400 So, again, our history of supporting industrial automation almost 100 years. 00:19:22.559 --> 00:19:24.400 It's kind of crazy to think about it. 00:19:24.559 --> 00:19:26.240 And that's really meant built. 00:19:26.319 --> 00:19:28.480 It's we've built it on partnerships. 00:19:28.640 --> 00:19:33.599 We work with some of the best manufacturers on the planet. 00:19:33.759 --> 00:19:44.559 We work directly with engineers, OEMs, and manufacturers directly to design, build, and really maintain reliable control systems that control that can stand the set test of time. 00:19:44.880 --> 00:19:47.279 And we feel like this is pretty simple. 00:19:47.440 --> 00:19:49.359 If you want to go fast, just go by yourself. 00:19:49.440 --> 00:19:52.480 But if you want to go far, bring other people along. 00:19:52.559 --> 00:20:12.480 And that's the value we bring at Electrical Equipment Company because we can go far by walking alongside you to sharing our knowledge, to sharing our connections with industry and different manufacturers, solutions, and help prepare and empower the next generation of automation professionals out there. 00:20:12.720 --> 00:20:28.960 So I'm telling you, today, the same principles that guided EECO in its early years, you know, so far as being steady, being true to the craft, being innovative, still drive how we design and support manufacturing today. 00:20:29.200 --> 00:20:31.759 And control systems are just near and dear to our heart. 00:20:31.920 --> 00:20:52.640 So whether you're working on a legacy MCC or troubleshooting a network PLC system or trying to just really get a better understanding of your 508A compliant panels, our commitment is not changed to help keep America's industry running safer, smarter, and stronger. 00:20:52.960 --> 00:20:54.000 That's what it's all about. 00:20:54.160 --> 00:21:02.319 So hopefully, you know, if you start start start thinking about this again, the industrial control panel, it's not just a metal enclosure with wires. 00:21:02.480 --> 00:21:04.960 No, it is core to the automation system. 00:21:05.039 --> 00:21:12.480 And we need to hopefully now you maybe have a little better understanding of what to expect when you walk up in to look at one. 00:21:12.799 --> 00:21:23.119 So if you start thinking about like intelligent PLCs, uh HMIs, the infrastructure, it really brings it all together and brings it to life. 00:21:23.200 --> 00:21:30.799 So hopefully now you have a little more confidence that you're not just looking at hardware, you're seeing decades of engineering evolution and craftsmanship. 00:21:30.880 --> 00:21:34.000 And hey, we've been doing it for 10 decades here now. 00:21:34.079 --> 00:21:35.920 So we're pretty excited about that. 00:21:36.000 --> 00:21:39.920 And if you need help and you need support, please reach out to us. 00:21:40.079 --> 00:21:43.599 There will be links in the show notes, there'll be links in the video. 00:21:43.759 --> 00:21:48.079 Wherever you're finding this at, we want to be able to connect with you. 00:21:48.319 --> 00:21:52.880 We have labs where you can come in and test some of these devices directly. 00:21:53.039 --> 00:22:08.960 If you just have a panel that you need support with and you're just not sure what's going on with that panel, we have experts who are willing to come out to your site and to help come alongside you to build your confidence so that when you open up that panel, you know exactly what you're looking at. 00:22:09.039 --> 00:22:09.279 Okay. 00:22:09.440 --> 00:22:12.880 So we're here to help, we're here to serve in a mighty way. 00:22:13.039 --> 00:22:21.359 And again, the coming up in the next few months, we're gonna be giving you hopefully even more insight and encouragement into industrial control panels. 00:22:21.440 --> 00:22:28.799 So if this has helped you or encouraged you in any way, please share it with others, uh, particularly those that are newer to the industry. 00:22:28.960 --> 00:22:33.680 And then you can go to EcoOnline, that's eco online.com. 00:22:33.920 --> 00:22:35.200 Love to connect with you there. 00:22:35.359 --> 00:22:38.319 That's where you can connect with all our resources, all our experts. 00:22:38.480 --> 00:22:40.799 Again, we have labs across all our geography. 00:22:40.880 --> 00:22:52.400 So if you want to actually schedule some time to come into one of our labs to do a demo, to just you know walk through some equipment, maybe you want to uh just sharpen your skills in some areas, we have that um capability as well. 00:22:52.559 --> 00:22:55.839 And then we always work with vendors to do training. 00:22:55.920 --> 00:23:08.799 So if you're interested in just building up your training skill set, go check out our training resources as well, because that could be a great way to just enhance your confidence and your ability in serving industrial manufacturing in the future. 00:23:08.880 --> 00:23:09.200 Okay. 00:23:09.440 --> 00:23:12.640 So if you wouldn't mind give us a rating and review, that stuff does help for sure. 00:23:12.799 --> 00:23:16.480 But the big thing is just give us check us out at ecoonline.com. 00:23:16.640 --> 00:23:17.680 Follow us on LinkedIn. 00:23:17.759 --> 00:23:26.960 We try to put a lot of resources there as well, but really we're all about that one-on-one connection because again, it's not just about going fast, it's about going far together. 00:23:27.039 --> 00:23:28.319 So that's what we're all about. 00:23:28.480 --> 00:23:28.880 All right. 00:23:29.039 --> 00:23:30.079 Well, have a great day. 00:23:30.160 -->
