Markets

Rail

LCS have been supplying the rail industry for over 30 years, we are a key supplier of safety critical equipment to Network Rail and London Underground. Our products are applicable to both third rail and four rail systems, trackside and in depots. (See schematics)

Light Rail, Metro, Trams

We can also supply products suitable for light rail and trams either as DC rail energised or overhead systems. Our customers have included; Docklands Light Railway, Nexus (Tyne & Wear Metro) Blackpool Transport, and Dublin Public Transport.

Renewables

As the need for renewable energy sources and storage increases then so does the need for suitable switchgear. Electricity generated by solar farms and stored in batteries is DC, which is typically harder to switch than equivalent AC systems. LCS have significant experience with DC systems and are ideally placed to support the renewables industry.

Hospitals

LCS, under the Carville Brand have been supplying LVAC switch panels to many hospital trusts. Security of supply is critical in these applications, depending upon reliable changeover panels, often with the option of two DNO supplies and emergency back-up generator

Government & Commercial

We have supplied many LVAC switch boards to a variety of government buildings, institutions such as universities and to commercial premises. A key selling point is the ability to accommodate new switchgear into existing buildings often with limited space and access. Please see attached time lapse video of such an installation
