Our team helped a business in the food industry improve the lighting in their hazardous areas with the supply and installation of fully compliant, ATEX certified fittings.

The works took place in a vitamin production area and all elements of the installation were carried out to comply with relevant safety regulations such as BS EN 5226-1:2016 and BS EN 1838:2013.

  • Hawke deluge and barrier glands for zoning and cable lengths on site
  • Fully compliant XLPE/SWA/LSF cable
  • ATEX certified sealant for cable routing
  • A 1 No safe area, weatherproof light switch

The works were completed within 2 weeks, with measures taken to ensure the business was ready to efficiently restart operations once the work was completed.
