Thorne & Derrick are a leading distributor for the Ellis Patents range of Cable Cleats & Hangers for LV HV power systems.
Cable cleats are used to support cables providing effective short circuit protection.
All cable cleats distributed by Thorne & Derrick are undergoing testing to conform to the latest IEC 61914:2021 Standards.
Certification will be in place before the deadline.
What's Changed? The 3rd Edition of IEC61914 (IEC 61914:2021) cancels and replaces the 2nd edition published in 2015. This edition constitutes a technical revision.
The article below highlights a serious specification shortcoming with respect to the understanding of conformance to the current IEC standard and the short-circuit testing and purchasing of cable cleats.
T&D have successfully addressed this issue across UK projects in the wind, BESS, substation and data centre sectors – power is everywhere and we hope this article will lead to a more widespread correction and update at specifier and contractor levels throughout the electrical industry.

Emperor cable cleats are available in single and trefoil formation for LV HV cable diameters 32-150mm.
Maximum Short Circuit Test Level: 156kA (600mm), 195kA (300mm) or 235kA (225mm) spacings.
Material: Stainless Steel
Emperor cleats provide rapid installation and offer the ultimate short circuit protection for LV HV power cables against the harshest environmental conditions.
The trefoil arrangement is primarily used in situations where the 3 phases are carried by individual single core cables rather than a 3 core cable.

Reduce installation times with the Ellis Patents Twist Foot Design for Vulcan Cable Cleats.
With the new redesign, the cable cleat is supplied pre-assembled for immediate site installation. The increased speed of cable cleat installation is achieved by the integral Twist Foot base – just Fit, Twist & Tighten.
Watch the following product demonstration of Vulcan Cable Cleats – the time trial of conventional Vulcan v. advanced Vulcan with Twist Foot.
Improving Electrical Safety & Sustainable Costs
Reduce carbon footprint with No Bolts Cleat, an all polymeric (non-metallic) stackable cable cleat - Network Rail PADS and TfL London Underground (1-085) Approved.
The initial problem encountered by Network Rail was that live cables were having to be removed from cable cleats, work carried on around them, and then somehow placed back between tightly spaced upright studs at regular intervals along an entire cable run. Ellis Patents addressed the issue by designing a brand new cable cleat that could be stacked and fixed with nothing more complicated than a quarter turn fixing lock.
