Electrical Matting IEC 61111:2009 – Class 4

Product Information

Electrical Matting IEC 61111:2009 – Class 4

Our Class 4 electrical matting offers the highest level of electrical protection up to a maximum safe working voltage of 36,000V.

Manufactured to European IEC 61111:2009 specifications, our matting gives you complete protection when working in power stations or with high voltage switchgear.

Our electrical matting features a ribbed top surface with a cloth finish on the underside. The ribs serve two main functions. Firstly, they help to increase the maximum surface area of the matting, which helps to dissipate electrical discharge. Secondly, they provide our matting with superior anti-slip properties, which enable you to use them in almost any condition.

Unbeatable Safety

IEC 61111:2009 is the current UK and European specification for electrical insulation matting. The specification is crucial as it ensures that all new electrical matting is manufactured to the same criteria. It also helps to separate the matting into different classes, depending on the maximum voltage they can protect against. This enables you to quickly and easily select the appropriate electrical matting for your application. The classes are separated as follows:

Class 0 – Maximum Tested Voltage: 10,000 | Proof Voltage: 5000 | Safe Working Voltage: 1000
Class 1 – Maximum Tested Voltage: 20,000 | Proof Voltage: 10,000 | Safe Working Voltage: 7500
Class 2 – Maximum Tested Voltage: 30,000 | Proof Voltage: 20,000 | Safe Working Voltage: 17,000
Class 3 – Maximum Tested Voltage: 40,000 | Proof Voltage: 30,000 | Safe Working Voltage: 26,500
Class 4 – Maximum Tested Voltage: 50,000 | Proof Voltage: 40,000 | Safe Working Voltage: 36,000

The maximum tested voltage ensures that the electrical matting does not deteriorate when exposed to high voltages. Please note: you should not confuse this with the working voltage, which outlines the maximum voltage the mats can efficiently withstand for long periods of time.
