Socomec supplier in Romania
UPS and transfer switches for supply continuity
Founded in 1922 · Headquarters: Benfeld, France
Who is Socomec and what does it make?
Socomec is an independent French manufacturer of equipment for low-voltage electrical networks, founded in 1922 in Benfeld, Alsace, and still under family control across four generations. The company covers continuity of supply through UPS and uninterruptible power supplies, switching and protection of electrical networks, plus monitoring and energy efficiency. From the Socomec range we can quote both UPS units for critical loads and switching and protection equipment for electrical panels.
Socomec is positioned in the supply continuity segment with ranges such as NETYS and DMX for UPS units, including lithium-ion battery versions, where the weight and size of the unit fall significantly compared with classic lead batteries. The company describes its history as '100 years of shared energy', keeping its status as an independent manufacturer.
For installations in Romania, Socomec makes sense for server rooms, pumping stations and production lines where an interruption of a few seconds means process losses, not just inconvenience, and where the UPS must be correctly sized to the real power of the critical load.
What do we supply from the Socomec range?
| Product | Description |
|---|---|
| NETYS Series UPS | Uninterruptible power supply from the manufacturer's entry-to-mid range, also available in a lithium-ion battery version (NETYS RT4), where the weight of the unit falls significantly compared with the classic lead-acid version at the same autonomy. Typically used to protect small servers, network equipment or critical workstations in an installation. For a quotation, the customer must send the power of the load to be protected in kVA and the autonomy required on battery. |
| DMX Series UPS | High-power uninterruptible power supply, from the manufacturer's industrial range, also available in a lithium-ion battery version for installations where space for batteries is limited. Used in data centres, hospitals or production lines where an interruption of supply would stop critical processes. The customer must send the total power required, the redundancy configuration desired (if applicable) and the space available for installation. |
| Switching and Protection Equipment | Range of equipment for isolating, switching and protecting low-voltage electrical circuits, used in distribution panels for the safe isolation of sections of an installation during maintenance work. Selection depends on the rated current, the working voltage and the number of poles required. For a quotation, the customer must send the parameters of the electrical panel in which the equipment will be fitted. |

How do we supply Socomec in Romania?
For Socomec we work from the manufacturer's technical documentation; lead time and availability are specified in the quotation. We source the products to order through EU supply channels, usually in 1–4 weeks from order confirmation. For a correct quotation on a UPS, the customer needs to send the critical load power in kVA, the autonomy required and the preferred battery type (lead or lithium-ion); for switching equipment, the rated current and working voltage in the panel. We do not promise permanent availability from stock, and any shorter lead time depends on a specific check with the supplier.
Software configuration of Socomec monitoring systems is not part of our supply; the certifications specific to each UPS model are indicated in the quotation, based on the technical documentation.
Frequently asked questions about Socomec
What is the difference between the Socomec NETYS RT and NETYS RT4 series?
NETYS RT covers outputs from 1 to 10 kVA and accepts lead-acid or lithium-ion batteries, suitable for servers and ordinary network equipment. NETYS RT4 is the more recent generation, also available in a version compatible with lithium battery cabinets, which reduces the space taken and the weight of the installation. The choice depends on the space available in the rack and on the budget allocated to the battery type desired.
Do you supply Socomec UPS units to order in Romania?
Yes, we source UPS units from the NETYS, MODULYS and DELPHYS ranges to order, starting from the exact code of the model desired. We do not keep this range on the shelf, and to order it is usually 1–4 weeks from confirmation. It helps to state the power required in kVA and whether the installation requires lithium batteries or classic accumulators.
What do I need to send for a quotation for a Socomec DELPHYS UPS?
We need the apparent power required in kVA or kW, the autonomy desired on battery and the supply configuration, single-phase or three-phase. The space available for installation also matters, because DELPHYS XM and DELPHYS MX Elite+ differ in size and mounting method in the technical room. Stating the critical loads connected helps with correct sizing of the recommended model.
What is the COUNTIS series from Socomec?
COUNTIS is the Socomec series of electrical energy meters, available in single-phase and three-phase versions, such as P0x, P1x, P3x and P4x. These meters are fitted on electrical panels to measure consumption on individual circuits, useful for sub-metering or internal billing. The P43-DC model is dedicated to measurement on direct current circuits, for example in photovoltaic installations.
How do I request a Socomec quotation?
Send the Socomec code from the nameplate and the quantity; we reply in English with availability and the lead time written in the quotation.
