Numerous electrical hazards occur in the power industry. As per data from market analysis, In the United States, 500-1000 deaths occur due to electrical injuries every year.  What is an insulating matting made of? Before talking about the benefits of using insulating matting , we should understand the composition of these electrical shock protection mats. An insulation mat is made of rubber compounds. Rubber is an excellent electrical insulator due to its molecular structure. It has tightly bound electrons that prohibit charge transfer. An insulation mat is one of the most useful safety gear that has several benefits in the power industry. Benefits of using insulating matting: Power industry edition 1. Guarantees electrical safety while working with high-voltage appliances In Saudi Arabia, among all the b...
