Design support

AEI Cables has added a further service to its portfolio to more closely collaborate with building designers.

The electrical software provided through Amtech means designers can adapt their specifications more easily for each specific project.

Stuart Dover, commercial manager at AEI Cables, said: “We wanted to further understand the needs of the building designer, and to that end we’ve committed to more sophisticated software which will help them.

“It means we can work closely with them to ensure our diverse range of products are used for maximum benefit for our customers worldwide.”

Ashish Chaturvedy, responsible for group marketing and communications at Ducab, the parent company of AEI Cables, said: “In the electrical supply chain, your business is only as successful as the projects you work on, whether looking to design and manage a project, track the progress across job sites or manage your service projects, having the right tools to design your electrical circuits is essential.”

The software allows designers - including consultants and ocntractors - to create and manage specification documents using a comprehensive library of the latest relevant technical guidance to provide a fully robust building construction specification.

All AEI Cables’ products are supplied with approvals from independent bodies including BASEC and LPCB covering design, manufacture and supply.

It also holds approvals from organisations such as Lloyds, the MoD, Network Rail and LUL, and works to international standards around the world including American and Canadian approval systems.
