At ALLTEK ENERGY, we underscore the paramount importance of electrical safety during insulation upgrades. Integral to our comprehensive installation methodology, we emphasize electrical safety clearance to foster a secure and risk-free environment.
A cornerstone of electrical safety clearance revolves around recessed downlights. To uphold safety standards, we mandate the use of IC-rated (insulation-contact) downlights or IC-rated covers. These specialized components enable us to seamlessly integrate them within insulation, ensuring complete encapsulation without any voids. With IC-rated downlights, we confidently embark on ceiling insulation installation, assured that the lights are inherently designed for safe insulation contact.
Electrical evaluations and adherence to safety standards are non-negotiable prerequisites for insulation installation projects. It is imperative to inspect and address electrical wiring prior to installing cavity wall insulation, as post-installation access becomes significantly hindered. Consequently, we advise completing all electrical modifications beforehand to streamline the installation process and ensure efficiency.
Beyond recessed lighting safety, circuit protection is a vital aspect of electrical safety clearance. It is essential to verify that the current circuit safeguards are compatible with the insulation surrounding the cables. This verification ensures that the insulation does not compromise the electrical system's integrity, fostering a safe and dependable infrastructure.
