Calls for cable cleats to be reclassified

摘要

Cable cleat manufacturer, Ellis, has called on the IET to eradicate a long standing installation issue that causes serious health, safety and system integrity problems by reclassifying cable cleats as protective equipment. Richard Shaw, managing director of Ellis, explained, "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."
