Cablecaddy - colour change for our IP42 grounding reels
CABLECADDY’S specialist cable reel range includes grounding reels for electrostatic discharge – with a range of IP42 and IP65 reels available. And our reels have just been given a design change, and are now yellow and green, to reflect their use.
Cablecaddy is a wholly owned subsidiary of Ceenorm and supplies a wide range of cable reel solutions to the trade under the brand name Marcaddy.
Grounding reels are used for the elimination of electrostatic loads (for example hydrocarbon transfer trucks, fuels and combustible materials) and are supplied in a range of lengths with a H05 V-F single core yellow-green cable.
Also known as earthing reels – or antistatic earthing reels – these retractable reels can be supplied with different casings including polycarbonate and steel. Their main purpose is to create a low-resistance path to ground, preventing static electricity build up, reducing electrical fault risk and protecting both equipment and personnel.
Explosion proof clips are also available (the cable reel itself is not explosion proof) and the clips are suitable for use in potentially explosive atmospheres – including warehouses, the aviation industry, refineries, naval facilities and with tankers.
All part codes remain the same, it is purely the colours of the reels that have changed.
Other industrial cable reel solutions offered by Cablecaddy - which supplies reels manufactured by Zeca - include power reels, data transmission reels, EV charging cable extension reels, industrial balancers and multi-socket Combi-Cubes.
