Where can asbestos be found - Old Electrical Switchgear
Old Electrical Switchgear
'Old Style' cast iron switch gear typically contains asbestos components, namely flash strips, separators and asbestos rope gasket door seals. The materials have a high asbestos content but under normal operational conditions there would be no access required to the inside of units, other than by electricians. Electricians should be advised of the asbestos content.
