When the clocks turn back every autumn, sales of site lighting skyrocket – as contractors are suddenly faced with darker evenings, shorter days and less natural light on site. Thanks to advances in 110V lighting, there are now more efficient, flexible and easy to use options available for contactors and wholesalers alike.
R
ed Arrow has created a solution to help commercial contractors and wholesalers choose the right lighting
options for the job at hand: a site lighting simulator to demonstrate 110V site lighting products in situ: from festoons and floodlights, to and bulkheads.
The product ranges that are on display include:
Festoon Festoon kits provide flexible and adaptable lighting that can be hung around a site’s framework. Three versions are available – 12m, 22m, 50m – but it’s the 12m that offers the most flexibility: it can be connected with up to 20 more of the same fitting. Simply unplug festoon in areas that are not currently being used, and plug it into where it is needed, to make your festoon more adaptable to the space.
Uplights and globe lights: To fully illuminate a site area, uplights and globe lights are available
with a 360-degree light distribution. Both products feature a switchable emergency backup to conserve battery power and can be moved to different areas of the site as needed without losing illumination.
Non-corrosive lighting: The backbone of any site installation, the non-corrosive lights on show have a robust IP65 body and stainless-steel clips as standard. A self-supporting tripod or frame version is also displayed, to show how non- corrosive products can be used in specialist applications – such as plaster work – or to provide greater flexibility when moving lights from one area to another.
Floodlights: A range of floodlights are available to provide perimeter and security lighting on site. These floodlights are perfect for mounting at height, and to increase security by lighting a wider area around the site. With surge protection fitted as standard, they are a robust choice for use on construction sites.
Bulkheads:With maintained and non- maintained options, site bulkheads can be used for general security illumination or as a backup light source in case of a power interruption, which can be common on site, particularly when construction is underway.
Battery floodlights: A self-supporting light source that contractors can keep in their vehicle, battery floodlights are a good option to have as an efficient backup light source in case of power failure.
A separate Trade Counter demonstration area at the facility illustrates how Red Arrow products can be displayed in-branch to provide the information to support wholesalers at point of sale.

Mode wiring accessories – a clean bill of health
With an increasing emphasis on infection control and building cleanliness, Scolmore continues to invest to ensure that its wiring accessory products offer enhanced hygiene properties. The company’s Mode, Mode Part M and Polar plates have recently undergone further independent testing and have achieved a 99.98% kill off rate against Influenza A (H1N1) aſter a 24 hour period.
T
his latest testing further boosts the range’s hygiene credentials. Independent testing previously undertaken has also shown the products to have anti-viral properties against
enveloped and non-enveloped viruses. Aſter a contact period of 4 hours, all tested plates were shown to have a 99.9% kill off rate against enveloped viruses and a 92% kill off rate against non- enveloped viruses. This anti-viral testing is in addition to the anti-bacterial testing already carried out. Mode, Mode Part M and Polar ranges are all manufactured using Urea Formaldehyde, which has similar inherent properties to antimicrobial additives that inhibit the growth of infectious diseases. When independently tested, all products achieved a 99.99% kill off rate across all four types of the strains of bacteria – MRSA, E-Coli, Salmonella and Klebsiella Pneumonia. These antibacterial and antiviral certified switches and sockets are part of
Scolmore’s Medical Solutions range, which also includes blue ‘Medial Equipment Only’ sockets; red and green outboard rocker switched socket outlets, key lockable switches and sockets; locating sockets; wide rocker switches; Part M visually contrasting wiring accessories and the IEC Lock unique lockable connectors.
