Arc flash protection
Most electrical injuries and fatalities result from burns caused by arc flash – the UK currently requires companies to comply to E.A.W.R. 89 Section 5, which includes the prevention of electrical arc flash incidents.
T&D is a distributor of CATU arc flash PPE and electrical safety equipment - the CATU range of arc flash clothing includes protective face shields, jackets and coveralls providing head-to-toe protection against arc flash danger.
CATU arc flash clothing kits are an essential safety requirement for LV-HV substations and switchrooms protecting electricians against serious or even fatal injury.
Electrical safety products from T&D include voltage detectors, phase comparators, life saving intervention kits, rescue hooks, insulating gloves and switchgear matting.
