Lighting Industry News From flex7

Keep up to date with the latest news and product developments from flex7.

Myth – CPR is no longer important

The requirement for cables to be CPR tested, classified and certified became mandatory in the UK in July 2017, and that legal requirement remains in place today.

Myth – LSF and LSHF Cable are the same thing

The world of cable is, at best, convoluted and, at worst, a massive can of writhing, slippery worms. It’s full of obscure acronyms and complicated standards, so it’s not surprising that, over time, a number of misconceptions have woven their way into the fabric of this vitally important sector of the construction industry. Part 2  in our series of cable myths focuses on LSF and LSHF and if it really matters which you use.

'We at M.I Electrical Contractors installed a flex7 system for the first time as an alternative to the stand-alone systems we had previously installed. It was a good decision, the product, the operation and the continued support made it a joy to install and more importantly ended with a very satisfied client.'

Myth – Cable needs to be BASEC approved

The world of cable is, at best, convoluted and, at worst, a massive can of writhing, slippery worms. It’s full of obscure acronyms and complicated standards, so it’s not surprising that, over time, a number of misconceptions have woven their way into the fabric of this vitally important sector of the construction industry. Probably the one I hear most often is: 'if it's not BASEC approved you can't use it'

This October we exhibited at not one, but two shows; Education Estates and Healthcare Estates. We showcased our full range of lighting connection and control products at the shows, and highlighted how flex7 can reduce energy use, installation time, maintenance and ultimately, save you money
