Overview

Overview

This category exists for a practical reason. If you are already buying a transformer, cable and switchgear from us, there is no sense raising a second order elsewhere for lighting and accessories and paying a second delivery. One order, one delivery, one invoice.

We supply lighting materials, fittings, accessories and general electrical goods in trade and project quantities. Stock in this category turns over quickly and varies by branch, so it is worth a phone call rather than an assumption.

For contractors running several sites, we can hold an agreed list against your account so repeat items are always available rather than reordered each time. Ask us about it if that is how you work.

Product range

What we supply

Stock varies by branch and turns over quickly. Call the branch nearest you for what is on the shelf today.

Lighting materials

These are lightning protection devices, also commonly called lightning rods / lightning arresters / air terminals. They are installed at the highest points of buildings, factories, towers, substations, and other structures to help intercept lightning strikes and safely conduct the electrical current to the grounding/earthing system.

The picture shows several types, including Prevectron 2 ESE lightning terminals, ABB OPR lightning terminals, and copper multi-point lightning rods.

They are normally used together with down conductors, copper tape/cable, clamps, earth rods, and an earthing system to provide complete lightning protection.

Accessories and fittings

These are earthing and grounding materials used for electrical installations, substations, transformers, buildings, and lightning protection systems.

The picture includes copper-bonded earth rods, copper earth tape/strip, copper conductor coils, copper earth plates, green/yellow earth cable, and other metallic grounding strips.

Their purpose is to provide a low-resistance path to ground, helping safely discharge fault current and lightning energy into the earth and protecting electrical equipment and personnel.

Trade quantities

General electrical goods

These are electrical earthing/grounding and lightning protection accessories used for substations, buildings, industrial installations, and electrical panels.

The set includes items such as earth inspection pit, copper earth bars/busbars, copper-bonded earth rods, brass clamps and connectors, test links, earth rod couplers, cable lugs, insulators, and lightning protection fittings.

They are used to create a safe earthing system, helping carry fault current and lightning current safely into the ground while protecting equipment and people.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

Yes, and that is the point of the category. One order, one delivery, one invoice, rather than a second supplier and a second haulage cost.
Both, though trade and project quantities price better. Tell us what the job needs.
No. This category turns over fastest and varies between Lagos, Port Harcourt and Abuja. Call the branch nearest you before you plan around it.
For contractors with a regular list, yes. Ask us and we will set it up so your repeat items are always on the shelf.
