Proper installation of electrical wiring in healthcare applications is critical to ensure that the equipment being powered does not short or overload, causing harm to a patient. AFC Cable Systems, a leading manufacturer of electrical products, makes lighting applications safer, easier, and more efficient by complying with all applicable NEC requirements. However, it is vital to remember this doesn’t mean hospital employees are then able to fix electrical faults, instead, companies found at like of www.myseelectric.com/huntington-beach-ca-electrician-services-electrical-service/ or others should be used in order to have a qualified electrician install and test all electrical components.

MC LUMINARY HCF CABLE: Combines electric lighting power and control circuits under a single interlocked armor for use with energy-saving LED and fluorescent lighting fixtures in healthcare applications as well as with dimming systems in patient areas.
