The best name on the circuit…

Modelling the concept of a modular voice and data cabling systems GCL has extended its capabilities to provide similar installation services for the distribution of electrical power systems.

The distribution of electrical wiring often poses a problem for many tried and tested solutions. Historically, final sub circuits are routed back to a centralised location for their termination, resulting in large amounts of cables requiring support and containment.

The concept of Modular Wiring is consequently becoming increasingly adopted as the most appropriate solution to final distribution of electrical and control systems within a building. It is also proving to be the quickest, most flexible and cost-conscious alternative to traditional conduit, trunking and busbar systems.

Timeframe and budget requirements dictated by building construction programmes mean that speed and simplicity are paramount. Both these considerations influence the reduction in the initial costs as well as the reduction of those incurred during the lifetime of the building due to reduced labour and maintenance expenditure.

The Intelligent Ceiling comprises of armoured and/or unarmoured system components that simply snap together. Complementary power and control cables further extend the application. A completely pre-fabricated installation for all cabling associated with M&E services is achieved.

The Intelligent Floor compliments the data and voice zone wiring systems and has been designed to adapt to the rapid changing workstation/user requirements prevalent in today's environment. Multiple levels of system are available serving long established floor box methods and the increasing trend of floor/cable/wiring grommets.

Branch Cabling has also been developed to eliminate the additional time demanded for traditional methods of installation. The present practises for sub main distribution in risers, hotels, tunnels involve the bolting together of truncated sections of manufactured and often inconvenient lengths of steel trunking. Multiple component parts are replaced in most cases by a single drum. This being assembled within a factory controlled and testing environment enabling installation in a single placement. This system approach is suitable in most buildings and can be found Retail, Wholesale, Warehousing, Leisure and Commercial Offices.
