Introduction
The EGA Underfloor Ducting System is designed to enclose
power, telephone and ancillary system service cables, facilitating
distribution in commercial and other similar establishments.
Current commercial environments require multiple electrical
circuitry for secretarial, accounting and complex communications
facilities. Open plan office layouts and modern building methods
need a versatile arrangement of services for easy installation
and flexibility in use.
The EGA Underfloor Ducting System is a solution for such
cable management needs.
The system comprises four basic groups of equipment which
can be used together to provide the desired underfloor configuration:
underfloor ductings, service outlet boxes,junction boxes and
vertical access units.
Facilities for wiring accessories to British Standard are
offered although the outlet boxes can be adapted to accommodate
either European or American accessories.
The system is intended for laying on the structural slab
prior to the screed being poured. Screeding levels of between
53mm and 90mm can be accommodated and a minimum screed cover
of 25mm is recommended over the ducting.
For projects that require speedier installation, there is
also the EGA Cast-In-Situ alternative. This system is intended
for laying on deck plate or platform by means of adjustable
duct supporting brackets prior to casting.
All junction and service boxes in the EGA Underfloor Ducting
Systems are manufactured from high pressure zinc alloy die-cast
materials for strength and durability. Disposable casting
lids are also supplied with all boxes. The trap cover for
the service boxes are retained by hinges and grommets are
supplied to prevent cable damage at exit positions.
