Copper Earth Tape

Flat PVC covered copper earthing tapes are specified mainly as down conductors on a building’s structural lightning protection system – a complete range of earth bars, connector joints, fixing clips and clamps for connecting conductor tape to copper earth rods.

Earth Tapes

Earth Tapes, Cables & Conductors – bare copper, PVC covered and LSOH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) tapes, hard drawn copper bar and earth braids. LV-HV-EHV earthing tapes and systems for substations, transformers and generators.

Substations LV MV HV

T&D supply DNO’s, IDNO’s, ICP’s and utility power contractors involved in the construction and maintenance of MV-HV substations – this includes duct seals for underground cable duct, cable cleats to support cables, underground cable protection and a full range of MV-HV cable joints, terminations and connectors in heat shrink, cold shrink and push-on technologies for XLPE, PILC, oil and gas insulated cables.
