It is quite amazing how many different electrical fitting applications there are for a production company. Production units come from the heavy dirty and noisy type to the clean catering type and all different types in between and the electrical fittings that are used in each of these environments can be totally different. This in many cases can be through the different working conditions where it is necessary to find an adequate electrical fitting to meet these working conditions but in many cases they are carried out with little or no thought but installed as a cheap and cheerful unit that will do the job and look OK but is that really enough? It always seems strange that when most people enter an office block of the senior executive the fixtures and fittings are superb and the whole ambiance of the building sets a standard to impress the customer but if the customer is then taken into the plant the whole atmosphere is lost and with it all the hard work that has been previously set up as this level of care is not maintained. In many industries, particularly the lighter industries the only reason that the cheap and cheerful fittings are installed is because of price and the view that the equipment may not be treated quite so nicely as the offices. The late Eddie Stoddard demanded his drivers wore clean uniforms and drove clean lorries on the presumption that his customers did not want to see scruffy people delivering food and clothing to top rated retailers. The same logic applies to the electrical fixtures and fittings in the production units in the same manner as well as all other fittings. The electrical fittings in many production units are poor but the cost, of for instance, stainless steel switches and sockets is not very much more than the standard white switches and sockets and yet the stainless fittings look superb and are far easily cleaned. The look of the stainless switches and sockets remain as new for a very long time and give an excellent appearance which makes the company look as if it cares and has a good set of standards. The stainless steel switches and sockets can be changed by a competent electrical engineer in minutes and the results will be amazing. The health and safety consideration is worth considering alone as the stainless steel electrical fittings will transfer germs to far less extent than those of the plastic switches and can be biologically cleaned in seconds.
