Electrical insulation rubber mats are protective gears that ensure electrical safety in workplaces. Industries all over the world, starting from the USA to Mexico and Bangladesh, use electrical safety matting to protect the workers from high-voltage hazards. What is a 33 kV insulation mat? The IS 15652:2006 standard is set by the Bureau of Indian Standards. The IS 15652 standard has three different classes for electrical safety matting. They have three classes- Class A, Class B, and Class C. Different classes have different voltage enduring capacities for electrical applications. Class A has a 3.3 kV insulation mat and Class B has an 11 kV insulation mat. The 33kV rubber safety mat belongs to Class C of IS 15652:2006 compliant insulating mats. Working voltage  As the name suggests, a 33 kV insulated matting is suitable for applications that have working voltages less or equal to 33 kV.  This infers that this insulation matting will disintegrate when subjected to voltages highe...
