Protect Personnel Working Around Live Electrical Systems in Telecom Companies
Telecom networks depend on continuous electrical systems to keep communication infrastructure running at all times. From large switching centres and network exchanges to BTS tower sites and outdoor equipment shelters, technicians work daily around rectifier panels, battery banks, power distribution boards and LT switchgear at 415V AC and 48V DC systems. Even in these lower-voltage environments, live electrical work without proper insulation creates a real and constant risk of electric shock for field and facility technicians.
In telecom operations, the electrical risk is compounded by 24/7 uptime requirements, live maintenance at energised sites, remote locations with limited emergency support and the varied conditions of outdoor and indoor telecom installations. Electrical safety is not optional; it is critical to protect technicians and maintain uninterrupted network service.
Our electrical insulating rubber mats create a safe and compliant working zone around live electrical equipment, helping telecom facility managers and EHS teams protect personnel, reduce risk and meet IS 15652 / IEC 61111 / ASTM D178 safety standards without affecting network continuity.
Common Electrical Safety Challenges in Telecom Companies
Telecom companies operate across diverse environments from large indoor switching centres to outdoor BTS sites and remote installations, each presenting unique electrical safety challenges for maintenance technicians working at all hours.
Key Electrical Safety Issues:
- Electric shock risk near rectifier panels, battery banks and power distribution boards during live maintenance,
- 24/7 uptime requirements that prevent de-energisation for safe access during routine work,
- Moisture, humidity and temperature variations at outdoor BTS sites and equipment shelters,
- Remote site locations where emergency response and medical support are limited,
- Compliance requirements across multiple sites under IS 15652 / IEC 61111 / ASTM D178.
Any electrical incident at a telecom site can simultaneously injure the technician, disrupt network connectivity and trigger compliance and regulatory consequences.

Application of Electrical Insulating Mats in Telecom Industry
Every electrical installation in in Telecom companies where workers operate near live equipment requires certified insulating mat coverage. Below are the eight critical deployment areas across Telecom Sector.
VRLA | Lithium | Rectifier Rooms
Battery Rooms and Rectifier Panels
Placed in front of rectifier panels, battery charger units and DC bus systems in telecom battery rooms. Rectifiers convert 415V AC mains to 48V DC for network equipment, requiring mat coverage at all live AC access and maintenance points.
MSC | BSC | Local Exchanges
Telecom Switching Centres and Exchanges
Used in front of LT switchgear panels, power distribution boards and equipment room electrical access points in mobile switching centres, base station controllers and local telephone exchanges.
4G | 5G | Tower Base Stations
BTS Tower Base Station Electrical Panels
Placed in front of electrical panel boards, feeder cable entry points and main switch panels at BTS tower sites. These are the most frequently visited maintenance locations in any telecom network.
PDB | DB | LT Distribution
Power Distribution Board Areas
Laid in front of power distribution boards, distribution boards and main LT switchgear in telecom facility electrical rooms and equipment buildings across all network tiers.
11kV | HT Panels | Transformer Rooms
HT Electrical Rooms at Large Exchanges
Deployed in front of 11kV incoming panels and transformer bays in the HT electrical rooms of major telecom switching centres. Class B / Class 2 mats rated to 17kV maximum use voltage are required for all 11kV panel access points.
NOC | Control Rooms | Monitoring
Network Operations Centres
Used in front of LT panel rows, UPS systems and power distribution equipment in network operations centres where monitoring and control staff access live electrical equipment during routine operations.
Shelters | Cabinets | Remote Sites
Outdoor BTS Shelters and Remote Cabinets
Portable mats deployed inside outdoor BTS equipment shelters, street cabinet installations and remote site power panels. Moisture-resistant construction is essential for these locations, where humidity and temperature variation are everyday conditions.
DG Sets | AVR | Emergency Power
DG Set and Emergency Power Rooms
Placed in front of diesel generator set control panels, AVR panels and automatic transfer switch (ATS) rooms that provide emergency backup power to telecom exchanges and critical network nodes.
