What is a Motor Control Center (MCC)?
Looking to simplify motor operations, enhance safety, and cut downtime? A Motor Control Center (MCC) is your ultimate power management solution. In this blog, discover how MCCs work, their components, types, and why Burak Electric’s panels are engineered for performance, safety, and smart automation.
Precision. Safety. Intelligence. These are not just industrial requirementsthey're expectations. And when it comes to controlling motors that power the world, nothing delivers like a Motor Control Center (MCC).
An MCC is the nerve center of your motor-driven operations, designed to command, control, and protect your motors with uncompromising reliability. Think smart automation, seamless integration, and scalable performance all packed into one powerful panel.
If you're seeking peak performance, robust protection, and intelligent control, you're in the right place. Here's everything you need to know about MCCs and why Burak Electric is a powerhouse in this space.
A Motor Control Center is a modular, precision-engineered system that centralizes motor control into one intelligent hub. It houses motor starters, protection relays, control units, and communication modules in compact, enclosed compartments.
From conveyor belts to pumps and compressors, MCCs are the heartbeat of high-performing industrial systems. They ensure every motor runs smoothly, safely, and efficiently all from a single control point.
Why MCCs Are Game-Changers for Industry
With MCCs, you're not just managing motors; you're future-proofing your operations with unmatched intelligence and resilience.
Every element of an MCC is engineered for safety, intelligence, and uncompromising performance.
Classic MCCs: Traditional setups for fundamental needs. Dependable and simple, ideal for basic motor control applications.
Intelligent MCCs (iMCCs): Automated, smart, and scalable. Integrated with real-time monitoring and remote management.
Fixed vs. Draw-Out: Tailor configurations to your operational style. Choose fixed for budget-friendliness or draw-out for maintenance ease and flexibility.
Each type offers unique benefits to match your operational goals.
MCCs receive power from the main power distribution system and deliver it to motor control units. These units start, stop, monitor, and protect motors in real-time. Through built-in sensors, programmable logic controllers (PLCs), and human-machine interfaces (HMIs), MCCs ensure motors operate at peak efficiency.
With intelligent MCCs, you also get live performance data, load analytics, and early fault detection—enabling predictive maintenance and reducing unplanned outages.
This intelligent ecosystem not only optimizes motor performance but also drives cost-efficiency and productivity.
Where there's motion, there's a motor. Where there's a motor, there's an MCC keeping it alive, efficient, and protected.

MCC (Motor Control Centre) and PCC (Power Control Centre) panels play a pivotal role in industrial power management, ensuring efficient motor control, power distribution, and enhanced safety. MCC panels centralize motor control, providing real-time monitoring and protection against faults, which improves operational efficiency and reduces downtime. On the other hand, PCC panels manage power distribution across industrial systems, safeguarding against overloads and ensuring continuous, stable operation.

In modern industrial plants, electric motors operate continuously to power pumps, compressors, conveyors, and heavy machinery. The smooth, safe, and controlled operation of these motors is critical for maintaining productivity and avoiding costly downtime. When a motor control system is unreliable, it can lead to equipment failures, operational delays, and serious safety risks.
