Legrand

Legrand has become the first manufacturer in the electrical industry to achieve the brand new BSI BIM (Building Information Modelling) Objects Kitemark. The new quality mark is designed to help manufacturers demonstrate that they have embedded BIM into their manufacturing processes and are delivering high quality BIM Objects.

  Meeting high-power demands of commercial and industrial sites across the country, Legrand has unveiled a new range of cast resin busbar trunking. The range guarantees high levels of electrical and mechanical robustness in challenging operating conditions.

In many data centres now, installing sprinkler and water mist systems is a requirement, but issues can arise in combination with aisle containment, both in the design and in the installation. Minkels, part of the publicly traded company Legrand, has addressed these issues in an update of its white paper 05 ‘Integration of Aisle Containment with Fire Suppression Systems’.

The BIM Level 2 deadline has been and gone, but in terms of the market, has anything changed and what discussions do we need to have? Training and BIM Manager at Legrand UK and Ireland, Matt Crunden, discusses the progress and challenges that are yet to come.

  This year’s 100% Design show will see Legrand unveil its three latest additions to its wiring accessory collections, Arteor, Synergy and Art d’Arnould. 

  The warranty has been extended for the high-efficiency Zucchini Green T.HE cast resin transformers, by Legrand, to eight years, which is the longest on the market. This guarantees long-lasting reliable power distribution, with market-low partial discharge values.
