Woodwater House
Product:
Horizontal PowerPoles
Marshall-Tufflex provided a spectacular
solution for Michelmores Solicitors’
striking glass building in Exeter.
Series 2 PowerPoles in aluminiumwere
specified to blend in with existing steel
columns, manufactured with special bends
and suspended horizontally around the
building to carry power and low voltage
lighting in a way that sympathised
perfectly with the existing steel work.
TES Projects Ltd, contractors for the
installation commented:
“The system suits the purpose really well,
it carries segregated fire alarm and door
entry cabling and it all looks really good.”
“We wanted a plug-in power connection
system because they are far quicker to
install and can be disassembled when
the building is decommissioned.
We have been really impressed with
MT32 and now plan to use it across
most, if not all, of our contracts”.

Freeman Hospital
Product:
MT32 Home run
Milton Keynes-based contractor, Hobbs
Electrical, used Marshall-Tufflex’s MT32
Prefabricated modular wiring system
home run for the fit-out of a new
modular build operating theatre at the
Freeman Hospital in Newcastle.
The MT32 home run takes power
distribution and lighting systems from
the hospital’s distribution boards to a
mastering unit in a local position
in the new theatre.
The pre-wired, pre-tested home run is
supplied with 9 circuits for power and light.
It can also accommodate up to 10 circuits
with a maximum of 32 cores and can be
configured for any combination of power
and lighting and for conductor sizes from
1.5mm² to 10mm².
The MT32 home run distributes power from
the main board and is simply bolted into
place and connected up via a male
HARTING plug, which makes the
connection from the distribution board to
the home run and into the theatre’s
mastering unit, fromwhere MT32’s 32Amp
underfloor distribution system takes power
out to all areas of the new operating
theatre.
