ASTM D178 Electrical matting

This ASTM D178 electrical matting is a frequently purchased electrical safety item. Because of the spectrum of secure operating voltage the mats give, it is used in a multitude of sectors. All our  Electrical matting and pads are screened separately to guarantee they fulfill safety standards.

This electrical safety matting is stamped with the regulatory standard at 1000 mm rows on the opposite of the stick.

The mats ' top layer has a fine ribbed structure. This provides two main characteristics to our electrical matting ASTM D178. First, it provides the mats a superior surface area that helps with electrical charge distribution. Second, the good ribs offer excellent non-slip characteristics.

We offer ASTM D178 electrical matting in the following classes:

  • Class 1 – Dielectric voltage: 20,000 volts • Tested surface: 10,000 volts• Maximum safe operating voltage: 7,500 volts. 
  • Class 2 – Dielectric voltage: 30,000 volts • Tested surface: 20,000 volts• Maximum safe operating voltage: 17,500 volts. 
  • Class 3 – Dielectric voltage: 40,000 volts • Tested surface: 20,000 volts• Maximum safe operating voltage: 26,000 volts. 
  • Class 4 – Dielectric voltage: 50,000 volts • Tested surface: 40,000 volts• Maximum safe operating voltage: 36,000 volts.
