INTRODUCTION
The CEL range of feeder pillars has been tried and tested in an extensive variety of applications
and conditions to prove their durability against the elements and the rigours of all urban and rural
environments. CEL provides one of the most comprehensive ranges of feeder pillars, both shells
and pre-wired with distribution equipment, in the UK market, with a range of sizes and options to
suit a wide variety of applications.
The range includes Mini pillars manufactured from 3mm mild steel to Maxi double door pillars
manufactured from 5mm mild steel. Pillars are also manufactured in Grade 304 or 316 stainless
steel and GRP. Standard finish is hot dipped galvanised to BSEN ISO 1461, but
all pillars can be powder coated to RAL or BS colours with options of anti-graffiti
and HA specifications.
CEL are committed to providing excellent quality and service and have made a
deliberate investment in finished stock to ensure the promptest delivery times.
All products are designed, manufactured and inspected under stringent Quality
Control Systems resulting in products and service levels which comply with, or
exceed, the requirements of current legislation and regulations.

Project Specific Bespoke Solutions


CEL also offer a design service, working with the client from the conception of a project to
delivery.
Everybody in the Supply Chain has a responsibility to ensure that the product is safe, from the
specifier, to CEL as the manufacturer, to the installer.
All CEL distribution equipment is designed, manufactured and tested to BSEN 60439-1. A
design is prepared under instruction from the Specifier who receives a CAD drawing giving
details of layout, together with a unique reference which can be used in the
specification documentation.
When a project comes to construction phase, Design and Assembly work closely together to
ensure build complies with the design. Quality systems under ISO 9001:2008 are followed
throughout the manufacture.
On completion, all distribution equipment is tested using calibrated instruments, with the
results being recorded. All assemblies are inspected both mechanically and electrically.
Electrical continuity of the protective circuits is checked.
A Certificate of Type Test is produced and included in the O&M Manual supplied with the
product.
To provide full traceability, all completed distribution
pillars are supplied complete with a name plate
affixed showing:
3 Identity number
3 Standard
3 Rated Operational Voltage Ue
3 Rated Insulation Voltage Ui
3 Degree of Protection
3 Date of Manufacture

Case Study
Riverside Resource Recovery Facility
Location: South Bank of River Thames, Belvedere

Riverside Resource Facility


Product Ref: PQ2909

The RRR Facility is an energy recovery plant planned as an alternative to a


landfill site. The facility is a river-served recovery plant with waste delivered
by barges and tugs. The plant generates its own power and exports power to
the National Grid.
Specification: A bespoke feeder pillar, with a footprint of
2800mm x 900mm, consisting of two standard feeder cubicles in a back to
back arrangement to service the following:
General Power
Sub Mains Circuit
Low voltage 110V centre tapped earth socket outlets/connection units
General area lighting and floodlighting
Jetty Navigational Lighting and Emergency Lighting
The pillar was to be sited on a jetty. Therefore it was recommended that
it be fabricated in 5mm 316 grade stainless steel to suit the marine
environment. Electrical distribution panels to be in modular polycarbonate,
IP65 enclosures, with the following general specification:
Material: Thermoplastic
Application Areas: Harsh Environments/Outdoor Use
Ambient Conditions: -5o C to +40o C
Insulation: Protection Class II
Impact Strength: IK 08 (5 Joule) to DIN EN 50 102
Ingress Protection: IP65 Dust Proof & Water Jets
Electrical Parameters: Rated Current 630A Insulation Voltage AC/DC 690
Burning Behaviour: Glow Wire Test 960o C to IEC 60 695-2-1
Temperature Resistance: -40C up to +120C
UV Resistance: Direct Sun Radiation
Chemical Resistance: Acid & Lye 10%, Petrol & Mineral Oil
Toxic Behaviour: Silicon & Halogen Free
Design: After much discussion between CEL Designer and Consultant, a
design was agreed, a unique product reference, PQ2909, allocated and
outline drawings prepared and submitted to the client. The job subsequently
went out to tender and prices were submitted by contractors.
Manufacture: Once the formal order was received, detailed circuit
diagrams were prepared and submitted for approval. Several design
changes occurred as the project progressed and once final design was
approved, fabrication of the pillar and assembly of the electrical equipment
began.
Testing: Carried out to BSEN 60439-1. Because of the very special
requirements for this project the customer sent a representative to witness
the test.
Delivery: Due to the nature of the site and the product, a specific delivery
date and time was arranged.
