Reclassify cleats as protective equipment, says Ellis' MD Richard Shaw

摘要

Richard Shaw (pictured) has called on the IET to address a longstanding installation issue that has the potential to cause serious health, safety and system integrity problems, by reclassifying cable cleats as protective equipment. "For many years we have banged the drum about the sheer importance of correctly cleating cables and the dangers that arise if short cuts are taken, yet still we see far too many installations where this advice has been ignored and corners cut simply to save money," he says.
