Social Housing Wiring Accessories
Wiring accessories are your resident’s everyday link to power and data, so safety, aesthetics, quality and durability at a cost effective price are important in Social Housing.
Safety First
At its most basic level, the wiring accessory provides a barrier between the resident and electricity, but access to power when it is needed. It needs to have a tough, durable cover to avoid breakage, but also provide protection against inadvertent electric shock.Hager’s Wiring Accessories Guide (PDF) details what you need to consider. So for example socket outlets must have a shutter mechanism to prevent access unless the earth pin is inserted first. Hager has gone one step further with its safety shutter in that all three pins from a plug need to be present to make electrical contact.
