Insulating Ladders
Insulating ladders are to protect a worker against electrocution whilst working in a potentially hazardous situation - ladders insulate the worker from earth.
CATU insulating ladders offer insulation between each rung of 30,000V (after submersion in water for 24 hours) meaning total insulating properties increases with length of ladder. CATU insulating ladders are fire resistant and have good strength/weight ratio. CATU insulating ladders are resistant to corrosion and aging due to exposure to the elements.
The insulating ladders are available in various sizes with extended heights of 4.09m to 10.26m. The 10.26m long insulated ladder was selected for use in the Channel Tunnel for maintenance work. CATU insulating ladders are approved according to EDF specification KR 78 C-B216.
