stop wasting materials & labour

Why split a circuit under the floor, creating multiple penetrations and cable entry points, when we only need one? Bringing the 32A circuit through a single grommet, then distributing to the workstations from the RCBO protected built in sockets, the POWERBOX PDU offers neat efficient distribution, and protection is achieved, with less grommets, less tap-offs, less materials, and saving labour. 2, 4, 6, 8, or 10 outgoing GST connections, cover a variety of situations, with one single in-feed giving a much neater presentation under the workstations.

A FLEXIBLE ALTERNATIVE

TO BUSBAR WIRING SYSTEMS

HOVER & SLIDE

to compare components

An underfloor bus bar system feeds each desk individually with a 32A tap-off. To power rows of desks, linear runs of busbars feed multiple taps offs via multiple grommets to multiple RCBO’s to multiple desks. Layouts are limited to a linear formations: with little flexibilty for an agile workspace.

POWERCONNECT is a flexible, modular power system. The 32A circuit is brought up through a single grommet -reducing grommets, unsightly cables, labour, carbon & cost!

What our customers say

“We chose OE’s PowerConnect Modular small power system for many reasons. Not only is it a simple installation, which in turn provides a quicker installation, it provides flexibility for the end user in the future. Every aspect of this product is beneficial and not just for the small power element, the system also reduces floor penetration requirements and material waste. The end product gives a clean, seamless installation under the desks and takes away the untidy look of multiple cables to banks of desks.”
