COMBIBLOC – helping caravan parks meet the 18th Edition wiring regs deadline
New LED Fire Rated Downlights
from GreenBrook GreenBrook presents its new range of LED Fire Rated Downlights – The Vela Range – which comprises five different options. The Vela Compact range is a super low
profile fitting that can be placed in shallow ceiling voids with the insulation directly over the fitting. This fitting has been independently thermally tested by the LIA and is a contractor favourite. Next, is the Vela Compact PRO – again a shallow fitting but with a neatly styled prismatic bezel and
offering a quick connect driver with loop-in and loop-out connections. Also in the range is the V7 – a flicker free, highly efficient fitting offering fixed, tilt and anti-glare
options. This model also offers a quick connect driver for improved installation. Next is the sleek, modern Vela Advance – a 9W stylish fitting that has been used in many bluechip
projects – which again boasts a fixed, tilt and anti-glare option. And finally, we are launching the new Vela Switch – a colour changing downlight that can be
switched from 3,000k to 4,000k. All the Vela range is tested to ensure it is suitably fire rated for use in 30, 60 and 90 minute ceilings
The 18th Edition wiring regulations state that as of January 2019 ‘electrical sockets on caravan sites need to prevent the socket being live when accessible’. To meet this regulation, all sockets supplying power must include an interlock mechanism. While electrical contractors can install new mechanical interlock sockets, most are larger than standard sockets. This could mean that the existing distribution board cannot house them and will also need replacing. GEWISS COMBIBLOC Compact Interlocked
Switched Socket meets the regulations and is easy to install The surface mount COMBIBLOC, a compact,
interlocked switched socket, has a smaller footprint than standard interlocks (approximately 40% of the surface area compared to an equivalent vertical interlock) and it’s the same width as the existing panel mount socket. COMBIBLOC offers smaller dimensions of just 71mm wide x 122mm high for interlocked switched socket outlets with 16-32A versions in a single size. They can be fixed to a flush mounted box from GEWISS Q DIN distribution board ranges. The vertically-operated lever is easy to use and can be fitted with a safety lock. The tilted socket outlet makes it easy to insert the plug and keeps the power cable at the correct angle. Available in IP44 and IP55 versions. For more information call 01954 712 757, email:

and all conform to EN 60598 and to Building Regulations Part B, C, E and L.

Power-Lite 110v 30w Connectable
Festoon Kit This 110V 30W LED Connectable Festoon Kit from Red Arrow Trading is lightweight and compact and has low profile lamps that make it ideal for transporting around site, as required. The festoon kit is 12m long and can be
connected with up to 20 additional festoon kits so that the length can be easily extended – making the installation quick and hassle free. A splitter cable is also available to purchase separately, which allows the festoon kit to be quickly configured in different directions. This new product is suitable for use on construction sites, temporary structures, corridors, tunnels
and lift shafts. This durable kit is IP44 and IK07 rated so it is water, dust and impact resistant, making it ideal for a tough site working environment. The 120 beam angle provides a wide light spread which ensures that the light deployed delivers a
high level of visibility on site. Following the launch of this product, Roland Bricknell, Group Commercial Product Manager
commented: “The festoon kit’s connectable feature will make the installation for the contractor on site so much quicker and easier.”
uredarrowtrading.com Metrel vehicle charging adapter tests the whole system
Metrel, the electrical test solutions innovator, offers a vehicle charging point test adapter to help contractors increase their share of this growing market. The EVSE Adapter A 1532 plugs directly
into charging points in the same manner as an electric vehicle. It tests the charge point by simulating the
electric vehicle status, disconnected, charge ready, active charging (with and without ventilation) and pilot error just by turning a switch. The EVSE Adapter can test installations with output currents up to 63A. From January 1st, vehicle charging points can be protected by either a RCD type B or a RCD type A and appropriate equipment that ensures disconnection of the supply in case

of a DC fault above 6 mA, according to the 18th Edition. While many testers can check type B RCDs, only Metrel is able to test the 30 mA AC and 6 mA DC called for in the 18th Edition. The adapter works with all Metrel installation testers but the optimal performance is gained when used with the MI 3152, which offers Auto Sequence® testing. The A 1532 EVSE adapter can connect any installation tester to a charge point via a BS 1363 socket, and all 3-phases are accessible for individual tests using the standard 4mm connections. Connection to the charge point is via the type 2 male plug.
