Electrical Switchboard Safety/Rubber Matting

DESCRIPTION

Electrically resistant Switchboard Rubber Matting is manufactured from a high quality rubber compound to the most exacting standards. It is an essential safety product designed to protect life where there is exposure to live conductors.

APPLICATIONS

Permanent insulation to prevent danger from shock to persons employed in the generation, transformation, distribution or use of electrical energy. Switchboard Rubber Safety Matting is the recommended safety floor covering for switchboards, sub-stations, transformers, generators and electrical work benches. In temporary applications portable electrical rubber safety mats should be used.

SERVICE INFORMATION

The normal grade is suitable for most applications but special compounds are available for oil and acid resistance. If joins are unavoidable when laying Switchboard rubber safety matting the pieces should butt together with no gaps between.

Rubber safety matting shall have a minimum width of 900mm to accord with the Regulations concerning the minimum width of a working platform or passageway associated with a switchboard on which there are exposed live conductors (for voltages up to 650). If the Regulations do not apply the same width is recommended.

New - HV electrical safety rubber matting (IEC 61111) available working voltages 17kV up to 36kV.  This matting is flame retardant, acid and oil resistant and supplied in 10m rolls as standard (longer lengths on request) - see "Electrical Switchboard Rubber Matting"
