Prysmian Cables & Systems has won the contract to supply more than £1m of electrical cables into the Shard at London Bridge.
The Shard, which will be the tallest building in Western Europe when completed in 2012, will be fitted with Prysmian Fire Performance FP600S cable, Afumex – low smoke zero halogen cables and medium voltage cables with their installation due to begin in 2011.
Paul Connolly, Shard MEP project manager for Mace, said: “We have appointed Prysmian as their cables are specified products that come with BASEC and LPCB approvals. We also wanted all the electrical cables to come from one manufacturer to give consistency and one that could offer more than just cables, one that could offer components such as glands, cleats and advise on best practice.”
