A short story on one of the many facilities services available directly from Q Technical Services (UK) Ltd.
Private Mains water leak causing water to ingress into the basement of a service area. Q Technical’s private Severn Trent registered contractor attends site, finds cracked 4″ private pipe, removes damaged pipe work and installs new. Water ingress stopped.
Now the big cleanup operation. Five lift shafts have all suffered water ingress and the service area is covered in water.
Call up Q Technical Services (UK) stores and arrange for the facilities services to bring down both of our water pumps and our industrial wet vax.
Set up and get pumping. With our two pumps on the go we soon shift the water out of the shafts into the drain of the service area down the long service corridor.
Five lift shafts dryed and ready for reinstatement in a few days time….
Final water cleanup in the service area with our industrial wet vacuum and we have another satisfied customer.

If any of our customers had thought that Director Andy Jennings had been off the direct scene for the last few months they would have thought right. With a team of great employees and helpers the Q Technical HQ has now moved onto pastures new to their own premises. Having rented Horton Court for several years and with rents and rates costing tens of thousands it was lucky that that with the help of Wiggins and Lockett of Telford that Andy and Helen stumbled across a Freehold unit up for sale at Halesfield 5 that will see the company nearly halve its annual property expenditure helping to keep charge out costs as low as possible. The unit over the last few months has been fitted out including energy saving PIR activated lighting systems throughout to ensure that lights are only on when required and LED external PIR activated floodlights to keep night time operational costs as low as possible.

Q TECHNICAL SERVICES (UK) LTD
For all your Electrical, Safety Systems and Security Requirements
Q Technical Services (UK) Ltd believe it is always most important for our clients to be kept up to date with current changes. With the changes coming with regards our undertaking of Electrical Periodic Inpections to both void and tenanted buildings a big change is coming…hence the large newsletter. Hope you find its contents are of interest.
BS7671:2008 Amendment 1 comes into force on the 1st January 2012 and among the amendments is the inclusion of the new Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) replacing the standard Periodic Inspection Report.
An electrical installation within the new regulations is still subjected to periodic inspection and testing. It is the reporting of the inspection and testing that is the key change.
The first point to mention is the change of name to ‘Electrical Installation Condition Report’. It has been deemed that this name is more meaningful to clients as it clearly states that it is a report relating to the condition of the electrical installation. The structure of the report remains the same; however a key change is to the schedule of inspections that will be used when carrying out the new Electrical Installation Condition Reports.
Previously the schedule of inspections was generic and used for both periodic inspection reports and electrical installation certificates. The new condition reports have a schedule of inspections relevant to the periodic inspection work carried out. This new schedule is aimed at smaller electrical installations such as small commercial type premises where the supply is rated no more than 100A single-phase
or three-phase.
The reason for the new inspection schedule is to benefit engineers carrying out the inspection to enable them to inspect an installation in a structured and consistent way and for the client to better understand the result of the inspection.
The format of the condition report inspection has been designed so that a number of specific items requiring inspection are listed that are likely to be relevant to an installation. The requirement is for an outcome based on the inspector’s assessment to be recorded against each item. The engineers carrying out the work will also record an associated comment to reinforce the reason for a particular outcome. This approach is intended to provide more detail on the condition of a number of aspects of an installation and is one of the key differences compared to the previous Periodic Inspection report where only a summary list of observations and recommendations were recorded.
This new format has the benefit of providing a detailed assessment to the client to clarify any dangers, improvements or limitations and will aid any future inspection of the installation. For each item the new reports will also record if any further investigation is recommended as it is recognised that various factors could inhibit a complete inspection at the time it is carried out or the attending engineer has not verified an item but feels that further assessment is needed to confirm the safety aspect.
The second key difference with the new report is to do with the classification codes to highlight an unacceptable condition or improvement. This will now be limited to:
The previous C3 code (further investigation) will now be covered by an individual entry for each item and summarized on the observations section K on the report. The previous C4 code (does not comply with BS 7671:2008 amended to.) has now been removed from the reporting process.
Any C1 or C2 classification code will now mean that the condition of the installation will be classed as unsatisfactory in the summary section E on the report and this will then be conveyed to our clients.
Our clients will be notified of any C1 classifications straight away so that immediate remedial action can be taken such as repair, replacement or isolation.
For larger installation bigger than 100Amp Single or Three Phase arrangements a list of example items requiring inspection has been incorporated within the new regulations. The intention is for this list to be used as the basis of the inspection for a larger installation arrangement. The key difference being no dedicated schedule is provided. This will need to be agreed between the client and person doing the work as to how the inspection aspect is documented.
Finally, the schedule of test results remains applicable to the Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) and thus is included as part of the report.
It is worth clarifying that the new report is intended to report on the condition of an existing installation and not to certify an installation. Our trained employees carrying out the inspection and testing will now be looking to determine if there is any damage, deterioration, defects, dangerous conditions and any non-compliance with the requirements of the Regulations which may give rise to danger. Only these aspects will now be recorded on the new reports and not a full list of non-compliance with the regulations.
Installations built to an earlier edition are not likely to fully comply with the current edition. However, this does not mean that the installation is unsafe for continued use.
The new reports will also no longer state how any defects should be rectified. e.g. consumer unit should be replaced. This information will be provided separately if requested by the client.
Thanks for reading and I hope that you found the above informative.

Q Technical Services (UK) Ltd as a Mosquito installer of Telford in Shropshire is pleased to announce the following news:
Attempts by some narrow minded publicity seeking public servants to try to take away all individuals rights to peace, quiet and a harmonious existence have failed spectacularly today (9th September 2008)!
Baroness Sarah Ludford and her European colleagues Benoit Hamon and Jan Marinus Wiersma have been attempting to convince the EU Parliament to ban the use of the benign device called The Mosquito.
Today Si Morris, commercial director of CSS Ltd. the inventors of the Mosquito can officially confirm that 90.2% of MEP’s did NOT agree with a motion to ban the device.
Mr. Morris said today “Whilst CSS Ltd. agree that the only way to solve the problem of anti-social behaviour is for the government to institute serious long term social programs and to increase police visibility, we also stand by our position that in the short to medium term, The Mosquito gives a small measure of ability to a small number of people to PASSIVELY and BENIGNLY stop their lives and property being destroyed by a minority of teenagers who act in an anti-social manner”.
In response to this supportive news, CSS Ltd. are planning to launch two new versions of the hugely successful Mosquito device within the next several weeks.
These are:
Mosquito Multi-age. Over the last year there have been significant numbers of enquiries from the public sector across the world asking for a Mosquito that will annoy older people, such as those who sleep rough in public places. This new Mosquito will have two settings. One for teenagers and one for adults.
Mosquito Classic. This version of Mosquito plays selections of royalty free classical and chill-out music.
Mr. Morris went on to say that “these new models incorporate new software to ensure, as far as possible, that the devices cannot be misused and thus ensure – as per our usage guidelines – that the devices are only used when there is a problem with badly behaving teens”.
This EU position supports that of the Home Office issued earlier this year.

Home Department
Antisocial Behavior: Retail Trade
Mr. McNulty [holding answer s 30 April 2007]: My right hon. Friend the Home Secretary has not held any discussions with audiologists, radiation experts, animal rights groups or trade unions in respect of the ‘Mosquito‘ device. The device is a commercially available device and is not subject to endorsement by the Home Office.
As we understand it the Health and Safety Executive has considered the literature available on theMosquito device in order to determine whether there is any risk to health, either to hearing or other effects, which might be relevant under section 3 of the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974. The Health and Safety Executive concluded that the literature available on very high frequency/ultrasound units of this type did not identify any significant and relevant health effects that may harm children/youths exposed to vhf/ultrasound in the long-term.
The Health and Safety Executive also considered that in terms of noise exposure in the context of the Control of Noise at Work Regulations 2005, and therefore possible implications for persons working in proximity to these units, at the stated output level (for theMosquitosubjective effects if the duration of exposure is prolonged, there would appear to be little likelihood of persons exposed to vhf/ultrasound from this device suffering long-term ill health. unit) of an A-weighted sound pressure level of 76 dB, for the likely daily duration of exposure, there was not likely to be any risk of an exposed person suffering hearing damage. They concluded that based on the information and evidence available, and while there is the possibility of some short-term
The integration of Paxton Access best selling access control and Dedicated Micros CCTV
Perfectly Integrated Security
The Integration of Dedicated Micros’ (DM) NetVu Connected, Digital Video Recorders (DVR’s) with Net2 access control is great news for Q Technical Services (UK) customers. While Net2 logs each access event, all associated CCTV images are saved to a DVR.
Events with supporting video footage have a camera icon next to them. If a person wants to watch the footage all they have to do is click on the icon. This brings up a separate window with the CCTV footage. Video footage of an authorised event is displayed with the user’s photo next to it.
Integration removes the need to run two separate software packages.
Without it an administrator would firstly need to find the event in Net2, and then use the event information (door, date and time) to locate the images saved in the DVR; a time consuming and laborious exercise.
With integration the process is hassle free; images are viewed instantly!
The combination of Net2 and Dedicated Micros’ DVR’s means we can confidently offer our customers a combined answer to both their access control and CCTV needs.
The integration of the two pieces of software work seamlessly. Our customers benefit from access control and CCTV, but with only one piece of software to monitor.
The Y-cam Black utilises 30 infrared LEDs to provide high levels of “invisible” light in dark environments. The intelligent photosensitive components can automatically turn on the LEDs in low light conditions or the user can select “moonlight view” which superimposes frames together to increase brightness (frame integration).

Save your clients money on energy bills – Start offering energy savings – Switch off with the Energy saving reader
Offering Energy saving ways is a great way to differentiate us from our competitors
EXIT
Leaving on electrical appliances like lights and air conditioning wastes money and harms the environment.
Install Energy saving readers on your premises and this will help you or they make savings.
Compatible with Switch2 and Net2, the energy saving reader’s cover is designed to retain a user’s card.
When a card is placed in the reader, its presence toggles a relay that allows connected equipment to be switched on.
When removed, the relay toggles back and turns the equipment off.*
Lights and air conditioning etc. are guaranteed to switch off after use as users have to remove their proximity cards for normal access around a site.
The Energy saving reader can be used to turn on tennis court lights. When players remove their membership proximity cards these lights will turn off automatically.
The Energy saving reader can be used to control showers. This will help to prevent the waste of water and the energy used to heat it.
The Energy saving reader can be fitted to vehicles and hazardous machinery so only trained operators
Easyprox Compact – A complete access control system in a door handle
No mains power, no separate reader, no locking hardware required
Battery powered, 5 year life under normal conditions
Innovative low power technology to allow 30,000 operations
The same easy to manage token packs as our standalone range
Easyprox compact is an all-in-one battery powered lock and access control system that’s ideal for internal doors. Installing the system is simple because it’s not wired into a mains power source.
This lowers installation costs and increases the number of doors that can be fitted in a day!
The battery life of Easyprox compact is huge; 5 years based on 30,000 operations.
This is due to the system’s energy saving PIR detector; batteries are only engaged when vertical movements are sensed. The system has a low battery warning. In the event that the batteries should run flat, power can be supplied through the external battery contacts.
Each unit is fitted with a tubular mortice latch and is surface mounted.
This removes the need for specialist tools and reduces installation time.
The lock mechanism is fitted with an anti-shim plunger to prevent entry using credit cards.
Easyprox compact uses standalone tokens that are compatible with Paxton Access’ other systems.
Introducing it to new and existing access controlled sites is therefore a convenient and economical solution.
The list of applications for Easyprox compact is endless: office, industrial units, halls of residence, store rooms, classrooms, dormitories, sports clubs, residential care homes, hospitals and more.
The Long range reader has been designed specifically for use at car park access points. It’s amazing read range of up to 5 metres means that a hands free token can be read from within a vehicle; a convenient feature especially at busy periods of the day.
Housed in a robust casing with an integrated hands free interface the reader’s back plate and innovative
design makes it quite easy to install. The Long range reader’s impressive range negates the need to dig trenches in order to lay ground loops. Consequently installation time, on-site disturbance and labour costs are all greatly reduced; giving you a cost saving situation.
Whereas other systems require a dedicated reader for cars and another for lorries, the Long range reader will accommodate vehicles of different sizes. This means that only a single reader need be installed at each car park barrier; a further cost saving situation.
The Long range reader also works as a close proximity reader so that users without hands free tokens can use it. Code Description Retail Price
The reader can also be used in factories and warehouses to streamline the movement of stock.
When used with automatic door openers staff operating forklift and pallet trucks no longer need to present their tokens at access points.
Although conceived for perimeter access points the reader’s long read range makes it a practical solution for many other applications.
The reader can help all sites conform to strict DDA regulations by removing the need for users to physically
present tokens.
While passive the reader’s central light is red. When a valid token is detected the light fl ashes green and the associated barriers open. If a user’s token is not valid the light flashes red and the barrier/door remain closed.

The vans have all been professionally sign written by The Sign Shop of Wellington and our NICEIC and Safe Contractor logos have been added to finish the vans to a stunning external visual display which existing customers and new should not miss going up and down the country .
With the help of Global Storage the vehicles have been racked out to provide our engineers with excellent storage and the facility to keep all necessary equipment always at hand and location.
Fire alarm systems and their associated components, such as automated release doors have to be inspected, tested and certified every six months since the introduction of the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order.
Now with the introduction of the new British Standards applicable to automatically released fire doors . BS 7273-4:2007 these doors now need to be activated on a weekly basis to ensure they are operating correctly and this should form part of the current weekly alarm testing regime.
All doors must be observed to have operated correctly and this information should be recorded.
Business owners and property managers should be aware that this change should be implemented at their premises immediately and the necessary testing and inspection schedules increased to comply with the guidance given in the new British Standard.
The changes in the inspection schedules was brought about by the number of reported failures of fire doors not closing during emergency and fire situations increasing in recent years. The enforcing authorities and advisory bodies have taken the view that increasing the rate of inspections would better protect employees and other relevant persons from the risk presented. In short, employers and property managers are now duty bound to ensure those provisions for the detection of fire and for its compartmentalisation within their premises are subject to a more rigorous inspection and maintenance regime, which should be enacted on and also certified every six months by a competent company.
To ensure that your systems are maintain to BS 5839 and 7273 please do not hesitate to contact us where we will be able to advise you and provide you with a service maintenance contract to your sites requirements. .
