Siemens Includes 3-Year Warranty in Low Voltage Power Distribution Portfolio
ATLANTA — Siemens Energy & Automation, Inc. announced today it will be the only electrical distribution product manufacturer to provide a 3-year warranty included as standard on its lighting panel, power panel, busway and switchboard product lines as part of its new C3 Customer Confidence Certification program. By setting a new standard for electrical distribution products, Siemens is lowering the total cost of ownership while increasing the overall value its customers receive.
The new C3 Customer Confidence Certification program is automatically included with the purchase of a wide array of Siemens electrical distribution products; there are no fees or sign ups required. As part of the C3 Customer Confidence Certification program, the 3-year standard warranty from shipment doubles the industry-standard 18-month warranty and covers all Siemens factory-assembled P1-P5 power panels, SB1-SB3 switchboards (including factory-installed Access power meters and TVSS), Sentron busway that ship after October 1, 2009.
In addition to the 3-year warranty, the C3 Customer Confidence Certification program offers many other elements designed to increase the total value of ownership, including:
• Layouts, specifications and technical application assistance from Siemens Consulting Account Managers (CAMs)
• Customer Care Kits that include commonly used parts and fasteners
• Product configuration support from the Siemens Sales Support Center
• Siemens Online Customer Service for order tracking and status
"The C3 Customer Confidence Certification program is a testament to the quality of our products.
