ELECTRICAL SAFETY
PRODUCTS
When electrical risk is unavoidable, you need products and solutions to reduce potential
hazards to an absolute minimum
VOLTAGE TESTERS
Voltage testers, also known as voltage indicators
and electrical testers, are an essential piece of safety equipment, providing an instant alert if a circuit is live. Testers must comply with EN61010 for safety and EN61557 for performance and should have the correct category rating for the circuit under test.

VDE TOOLS
VDE tools include specialist screwdrivers,
pliers and other items that are insulated and certified for use on electrical circuits up to 1,000V AC or 1,500V DC, protecting the user from risk of electrocution.

PROVING UNITS & KITS
A proving unit is a portable device
that produces a test voltage (typically 230V)
so voltage testers such as multi meters
and clamp meters can be checked to
ensure that they will detect live
circuits when in use

LOCKOUTS
Lockout-tagout equipment includes devices such as
lockout padlocks and tagout tags that reduce safety
risks by ensuring hazardous equipment is isolated and inoperative before maintenance or repair work can begin.
It is necessary to ensure the devices used are suitable
for the relevant circuit voltage and category rating.

LOOP AND RCD TESTERS
Loop testers are used to measure earth fault
loop impedance and determine prospective fault currents, while a Residual Current Device (RCD) tester will assess the effectiveness of protection circuits. Testers must comply with EN61010 for safety and EN61557 for performance and should have the correct category rating for
the circuit under test

CLAMP METERS
Clamp meters allow non-contact measurement
of current, and so are inherently safer than
contact-based alternatives. They can also offer additional measurements such as voltage, continuity and resistance, although this usually requires contact with electrical circuitry.
Testers must comply with EN61010 for safety
and EN61557 for performance and should have
the correct category rating for the circuit
under test.

THERMAL IMAGING CAMERAS
By detecting infrared energy from machinery,
these handheld devices can help an engineer perform maintenance surveillance without having to get near
to live circuits or moving machinery.

PAT TESTERS
PAT tester stands for portable appliance
tester, an electronic device that can be used
alongside visual inspections to check for a variety
of faults in portable electrical equipment,
thereby reducing the risk of safety hazards to equipment users.

SIGNAGE
When placed in a visible position,
electrical safety signs are a simple but essential component in strategies to minimise electrical risks in the workplace, with clear symbols and text on bold backgrounds warning of nearby hazards.

ELECTRICAL ISOLATORS
Panel mounting or panel interlocking isolators allow
the safe disconnection and lock-off of the primary
equipment mains supply prior to maintenance or
inspection. Interlocking versions prevent the panel
door from being opened in the ‘ON’ position.LEARN MORE

SOUNDERS & BEACONS
Ensure that your sounders and beacons are easily seen and housed safely by using a correct mounting accessory. Sounders and beacons are important as they promote safety and awareness across many business sectors including construction, and correct installation can be vital for compliance. The RS range of sounder and beacon accessories includes various mounts, fixings, bacon.
