Electrical Innovations and Technical Updates...

Dear User,
This month the ECA tells us that smart homes offer great opportunities for electrical contractors. We think they are right. So instead of enjoying yourself on holidays why not ‘swot up’ on these new technologies by reviewing some of the many recent technical articles we have published on this topic. Also in this issue of VoltiNEWS read related articles by OSRAM and Adaptaflex below.
In the unlikely event that you feel like Jose Mourinho on the eve of an important game when it comes to choosing the right consumer unit, then ABB’s guide to selection should come in handy. You might also like to review our recent VoltiBULLETIN devoted to Consumer Units which proved very popular.
As it’s the holiday period we will not be publishing a second issue of VoltiNEWS in August so do take time to read about the many important innovations from our manufacturers below.
Also, further down our newsletter than usual, we bring you a selection of great job opportunities in the electrical industry.
And lastly, in the spirit of giving, Voltimum's own Ryan Winter competed in the London Triathlon for the RNLI Charity Organisation. Read more by clicking here.
Kind regards,
The Voltimum Team. |
