AEI Cables, a core member of the Approved Cables Initiative (ACI), has stepped in with its own Setting the Standards campaign, an advisory service which provides advice and technical support in easy steps for contractors and others to help stamp out the perils caused by non-approved cables.

A PRESTIGIOUS cinema in the new White City Westfield complex is using specialist fire performance cable from AEI Cables for its fire and voice alarm systems.

The systems are being linked using AEI’s Firetec Standard cabling to ensure consistency of supply in the event of a real fire.

AEI Cables is pleased to be a member of the ACI and would encourage all our customers and members of the electrical trade to support its objectives of removing from our industry the dangers of counterfeit and non-approved cable. This is supported by organisations throughout the industry including the British Approvals Service for Cables (BASEC) and the British Cables Association (BCA). More details about the ACI are available on the website www.aci.org.uk.
