Hear from electrical professional Chris from CJR Electrical on how he uses CableApp for his installations and how it saves him time and money for both himself and his client:

How does CableApp work?

There are two methods of calculation, one by cable type, where you can choose the product family, voltage, installation method, etc., and then you have the Cable Calculator where you select the installation parameters and CableApp suggests what cable to use – and the best alternative options.

As well as being able to see your energy savings, you can also amend your energy costs to ensure the solutions are tailored to your specific needs. This will help you towards any sustainability goals you may have on your project.

"Within CableApp, a guidance document is provided that takes the installer step by step through the formula used and how the calculation is made. CableApp then provides a worked example to the end user so that they can understand how both the annual monetary and CO2 savings are derived."

Iain Collings

Team Leader of Applications Engineering for Prysmian Group

CableApp allows you to calculate the total savings on your energy bill or annual CO2 emissions by evaluating the use of larger cable sizes. The solutions include making minimum and maximum savings.

CableApp provides the best cable solutions across a wide range of products including the FP200 Gold fire performance cable, and BS 5467 low voltage armoured cable. The cable calculator also identifies alternative solutions, allowing you to select the best option for the job.

"After you’ve found the product you want, you can print the data sheet off directly. It also brings in something that I hadn’t factored in up until now and that is if you upsize that cable, it may cost a little bit more for customers, but it will tell you their vital reduction in carbon usage. It also tells our customers how much they will save in pounds per year through the use of this cable or that cable."
