Every roll is fully tested to a withstand voltage of 15,000V, with a recommended safe working voltage of 650V — the figure that matters when you're deciding whether a floor covering is adequate for the panel you're standing in front of. The dense 1.50 specific gravity compound and 70±5 Shore A hardness give a mat that stays put underfoot and resists the wear of a plant room floor, while the fine rib pattern adds grip that a smooth insulating sheet doesn't offer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTested to 15,000V\u003c\/strong\u003e – with a 650V recommended safe working voltage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSolid SBR\/NR rubber\u003c\/strong\u003e – dense, hard-wearing compound at 70±5 Shore A\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFine ribbed top surface\u003c\/strong\u003e – adds underfoot grip over a smooth insulating sheet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCut to your own length\u003c\/strong\u003e – ten metre lengths available from every roll width\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCloth-impressed reverse\u003c\/strong\u003e – identifies the correct face and aids grip on the floor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhere it's used\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHigh and low voltage switchgear rooms, plant rooms, power stations, manufacturing plant switch panels and any floor area in front of a distribution board or control panel are the standard applications.

Then choose the cut length to match the run of floor you need to cover; every width is available from 1m up to a full 10m roll, priced individually so you only pay for the length you actually need. For a continuous switchroom aisle, measure the full run and order the nearest length below it, then use a second cut piece to finish the remainder rather than trying to stretch one roll.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eInstallation, use \u0026amp; care\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnroll onto a clean, flat, dry floor and allow the mat to lie flat for a few hours before use — no adhesive or fixing is required for standard indoor plant room use, though double-sided matting tape can be used at the edges in higher-traffic areas. Sweep or vacuum regularly and wipe with a damp cloth; avoid solvents and oils, which will degrade the rubber compound over time. Inspect periodically for cuts, punctures or thinning, and withdraw from electrical service if the surface is damaged, since a compromised mat no longer offers reliable insulation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs this current IEC 61111 certified matting?\u003c\/strong\u003e No — this roll is manufactured to the specification previously covered by British Standard BS921\/1976, tested to 15,000V with a recommended 650V safe working voltage.
