| Switchboard Matting is
permanently placed
in front of switchgear, motor control centers
and other high voltage apparatus to provide
personal protection for workers. It is also
used when tending take-up and pay out reels
and when adding or replacing conductors.
Made from high quality Type II rubber, Class
2 matting is 1/4” (6.4mm) thick and is tested
to 20kV, and Class 4 matting is 1/2” thick
and tested to 40kV. Both Classes of matting
comply with ASTM D178, Class 2 and Class
4 specifications. The corrugated surface acts
as a safety tread while reducing the
possibility
of metal particles becoming embedded. Class
2 Switchboard matting is available in 25 yard
rolls or custom cut to specified lengths,
while
Class 4 matting is sold in 20 yard rolls only.
Maximum Use AC Voltage Class 2, 17,000
volts, Class 4, 36000 volts.
URD/Switchboard Blanket, 84” x 36”,
is ideal whenever a large insulating barrier
is
required to protect electrical workers from
brush contact with live electrical apparatus.
The URD has 10 eyelets and is made from
red Type II SALCOR®, proof tested to 20 kV
(or 30 kV for 367-3). The R96 canvas/roll-up
carrier is recommended as a ground barrier
when URD 367 is used outdoors. |
