Filling Station Distribution Boards

Over the years, the requirements for the electrical system in Filling Stations and Motorway Service Areas has progressed from simple fused supplies to the sophisticated distribution boards we need today. This requirement is partly due to legislation in the form of the ‘Blue Book’, health and safety, the need for reliability, the need for efficient operation and maintenance, the growth of retail selling and the progress of technology.

In response to these requirements we have developed a family of distribution boards, which cater for this specialist market. The boards have evolved over many years in association with consultants, contractors, end users and senior engineers from within the Filling Station industry.

The boards can be individually tailored to site requirements or can be manufactured in batches to a standard design to maximise cost effectiveness.
