ELECTRICAL SWITCHBOARD MATTING
High-Quality Electrical Insulating Matting for Industrial Safety
Electrical insulating matting is a specialist rubber safety flooring designed to protect personnel working near high-voltage equipment. Commonly used in front of switchboards, control panels and electrical installations, this matting helps reduce the risk of electric shock and improves workplace safety.
What is Electrical Insulating Matting?
Electrical insulating matting (also known as switchboard matting) is a non-conductive rubber material designed to provide insulation between workers and the ground when operating electrical equipment.
It is typically installed in areas where there is a risk of electrical contact, helping to minimise hazards and meet safety regulations.
Key Features of Electrical Safety Matting
- Provides electrical insulation protection for operators
- Designed for use around switchboards and high-voltage equipment
- Durable rubber construction for long service life
- Slip-resistant surface for improved safety
- Available in a range of thicknesses and specifications
- Suitable for industrial and commercial environments
Electrical Switchboard Matting is stocked in both 11KV and 15KV variations. IEC61111 matting is also available. Please contact our sales office for details.
No shortcuts to safety
We supply electrical matting in 3 standard roll widths (914mm, 1m & 1.2m). No gaps should be left between the mats, therefore the Ashton cutting service is fast, accurate and affordable, whether you need one mat or a larger quantity.
100% Conformity
All our material is completely tested on all its surface area and then marked with the manufacturer’s mark, date stamp and test standard
However please remember that switchboard matting should not be used as the only form of chemical protection, health and safety guidelines must be followed at all times.
