What is the insulation mat standard size – find complete details inside

Are you aware of the right insulation mat size for your needs? Do you know how the thickness of insulation matting is connected with the voltage protection it gives?
When it comes to choosing a rubber mat for electrical work, finding the right size is crucial. How? Check expert insights on that, in this blog.

Insulated matting is usually made of elastomer- a rubber compound. There are no insertions in the insulation mat to make it stronger and durable. The reason behind it is simple- cotton or nylon insertions will break the protective layer of the mats. As a result, static electricity will not be passed on to the Earth.

A rubber mat electrical work is trusted in workplaces that work on many high-voltage equipment. They protect the workers from electric shocks, electrocution, arc formation, electric flashing, and short circuits.

Experts recommend that thicker electric mats provide more safety. However, the thickness of an insulation mat is determined by the IEC 61111, ASTM D178, or IS 15652 safety guidelines.

In places like the UAE or Saudi where there is an extreme temperature, thicker mats prove to be more durable than their thinner version.

Electric shock protection mats come in rolls. If you want to know how much rubber mat per meter you require, knowing the size of the rolls is important.

Despite the size of the mats, product labels should be distributed evenly all over the rubber mat per meter.
Most electric mat suppliers offer insulation mats in 1 m x 10 m standard-size options. Therefore, if you require sizes more than that, you will have to customize your mats.

The IEC 61111:2009 mats are of IEC class 0, IEC class 1, IEC class 2, IEC class 3, and IEC class 4.

Since they can withstand oils, mild chemicals, Ozone, UV radiation, and moisture, you can use them specifically in mining, power generation, oil and gas, metal processing, energy generation, etc industries.

Are you sure you are not using expired electric shock protection mats? Old electric mats do not provide adequate safety. Know how long you can use an IEC 61111 electric mat.

The IS 15652 electric mats are divided into Class A (3.3 kV), Class B (11 kV) and Class C (33 kV).

The ASTM D178 electric anti slip flooring, also known as switchboard mats is used in North American regions. Hence, if you are in Mexico, we recommend you use the ASTM D178 electric mats.

The ASTM D178 rubber matting electrical switch room also come in 5 classes- ASTM Class 0, ASTM Class 1, ASTM Class 2, ASTM Class 3, and ASTM Class 4.

Their thicknesses are:
