Diamond Mark for modular busbar range
Leading UK developer and supplier of busbar systems, Ter-mate, has won the right to use the coveted ASTA Diamond Mark on all products in its versatile Master Frame modular busbar range.
"Today's end users, consultants and suppliers of switchgear and controlgear have to be involved in so many different aspects of a project that it's virtually impossible for them to develop in-depth know-how and keep up to date in every specialist area", said Rob Swann, Operations Director of Ter-mate.
"Our new service", he continued: "is designed to help overcome this problem by providing its users, at modest cost, with specialist input based on our own wide-ranging expertise in the switchgear and termination fields".
Ter-mate's consultancy services cover every project stage, including the assessment of specifications to reveal potential technical flaws, reviews of manufacturers' documentation, preparation of design and installation drawings, and even visiting site to inspect and certify installations as compliant with tested designs.
Another major element of the service is test consultancy, which can support companies through all stages of the type-testing process, with particular emphasis on short-circuit and temperature-rise testing.
