The Forensic Analytical Service Laboratories

The Forensic Analytical Science Service laboratories at Lidcome required a like for like replacement of the existing Main Switchboard and Main Distribution board to update the facility and cater for any future expansion.

The scope was simple but the process required careful consideration as the existing lead paper insulated cables and MIMS were to be retained. Relec was able to use the flexibility of the Modular system to design the board around existing cable lengths and positions. Through design we were able to minimise and, in some areas, eliminate the need to move and re-terminate the existing cables and in turn drastically reduced the length of time required to install the new switchboards.

The use of the Relec Vector™ modular system allowed us to offer our customer a solution that more than superseded the existing infrastructure.
