klik.system:
• klik.system ensures the
benefits of prefabricated
wiring systems can be
exploited, whilst assuring
compliance with BS 8488
(Prefabricated wiring
systems intended for
permanent connection
in fixed installations).
Invicta 3:
• 11 Invicta 3 TP&N Boards
were used, 3 for landloard
supplies and 8 for tenants.
“In addition there will be significant savings when it comes to
inspection and testing since the system has been designed
and manufactured in a factory controlled environment, so it
has been pretested. This in turn means that there should be
less fault finding before we hand over the completed job and
then reduced snagging afterwards.”
Burgin Contracting used 11 of our Invicta 3 TP&N distribution
boards; three of these boards are for the landlord’s supplies
and 8 for tenants. The dual distribution boards are all MID
metered for both lighting and power to meet Part L2 and with
MID approval can be used for billing tenants if the landlord
chooses to do so.
The multi core home run cables from these boards supply
area distribution boards (ADBs) in the ceiling void. These in
turn are connected into lighting marshalling boxes (LMBs) via
link leads. The luminaires then plug into the marshalling boxes
as do the occupancy sensors that provide the lighting control.
The occupancy sensors switch the lighting on in response
to presence and then switch the luminaires off after a time
out period where there is no further presence detected. The
occupancy sensors also contain a photocell so that the
luminaires switch off if the available natural light is above a
set level.
To ensure that the prefabricated wiring system complied with
all of the relevant standards and regulations, we designed the
system using our bespoke software package. This produced
a fully calculated design, which included drawings, electrical
calculations, test information and delivery schedules.
“All of the products were delivered complete with drawings
that detail exactly what leads should be used where. All of the
cables are labelled, so there was no problem in identifying the
cables which are used for individual connections, so human
error was minimised.” stated Andy Collinge.
As a manufacturer who supplies distribution boards, a lighting
installation and control system and wiring accessories, we
can provide all of the elements needed for a prefabricated
wiring system. This minimises the problems that a contractor
might have on site in liaising with several manufacturers,
whilst maintaining all of the time saving benefits they would
expect from a prefabricated wiring system.
In addition to this, our bespoke klik.system software does
all of the necessary calculations, such as impedance, cable
sizing and voltage drop, which are required for compliance
with BS 7671. This validates the design and protects the
contractor in design and build operations.
