Electrical Safety Matting.
Rubber Matting for LV HV Switchrooms & Switchgear.
T&D today secured a repeat order from Qatar Vinyl Company for Electrical Safety Matting for use at their Mesaieed Industrial City manufacturing facility. The electrical safety rubber matting is to be used at their on-site 120MW electrical power plant and improve electrical safety standards within high voltage switchrooms and switchgear sites.
Electrical switchboard rubber safety matting is available in various cut lengths, widths and thicknesses - T&D can provide full rolls or singular cut mats. Electrical switchgear safety matting prevents electrical shocks whilst working on open or live LV-HV switchgear and electrical equipment including 3.3kV, 6.6kV, 11kV, 15kV, 20kV and 33kV systems.
Electrical switchboard rubber safety matting to BS921, ASTM, D178, IDE61111, VDEO303 specifications, including oil resistant electrical safety matting.
QVC ambition is to maintain the same high safety standard (18 million man hours without any serious injury) that was set during the company’s construction and start up phase.
QVC - a major part of the high voltage electricity generated by QVC substations is used to electrolyse salt to produce caustic, chlorine and hydrogen. Chlorine is reacted with ethylene (direct chlorination) to make Ethylene Di-Chloride (EDC). EDC is cracked down to Vinyl Chloride Monomer (the monomer to Poly Vinyl Chloride, PVC) and hydrochloric acid. Hydrochloric acid reacts with ethylene and oxygen to produce more EDC (oxychlorination).
The plant has access to port infrastructure with sufficient capacity to accommodate vessels up to 55,000 tonnes for the import of salt and export of caustic soda, EDC and VCM.
