 Television presenter Dom Littlewood is to raise the stakes in the ACI’s battle to beat defective cable when the extent of the problem is to be highlighted to viewers of BBC One’s Fake Britain programme on Thursday 26th May at 09.15.
Producers for the programme were keen to bring the issue of defective cables to the attention of the public in its new series.
The Fake Britain programme included footage filmed last year as part of the BBC’s investigation and highlights one of the key problems associated with defective cables - the reduction of copper in cables and the dangerous results such practices can present.
As part of the feature viewers were able to see testing of fire performance cable, which is used in essential fire alarm wiring in schools, hospitals and other public buildings, and how cables with reduced copper levels fail current British Standards. During the feature investigators are also taken to a storage warehouse to show how much defective cable has already been seized as part of the ACI’s (Approved Cable Initiative) investigations.

 A modular lighting distribution and control system for the new Suffolk One sixth form centre in East Anglia has been designed by Modular Wiring Systems, a subsidiary of TRATOS.
A £50m project, Suffolk One is a learning centre for 16-19 year olds in South West Ipswich and South Suffolk. Opened in September 2010, facilities on site includes a performing arts centre, an indoor sports hall, an outdoor multi-use games area and construction and motor vehicle zones.
The decision to go down the pre-fabricated modular wiring route was made on the basis of speed and accuracy, the company says. Such a system reduced on site wiring time as it is delivered ready-made – all the installer needs to do is connect the system components together. This concept is also designed to reduce the risk of connection errors during installation. |
 Tratos will be exhibiting its new range of Micro Cable at The Italian Association for Trenchless Technology’s No Dig Live (18-20th May 2011) event to be held at Telecom Italy’s premises in Valsavignone, Pieve Santo Stefano in Italy.
