SPECIFICATION FOR RUBBER MATS FOR ELECTRICAL PURPOSE
(Bureau if Indian Standard : 5424 - 1969)
The Electrical Resistance Rubber Mats are used as a floor covering, around electrical apparatus, whose voltage rating is 3000 volts. It is not intended to imply that rubber mats should afford the sole means of protection for those working on electrical circuits. Wherever possible, further adequate precautions should be taken against the risk of shock and short circuit.

Dimension of Electrical Rubber Mat
Standard Size
2 Meter Long x 1 Meter Width
6 Feet Long x 3 Feet Width
Special Sizes
1 Meter Width x in Long Length for Chequred and Plain Rubber Mat
Thickness of the Electrical Mat
From 6.0 mm to 75.0 mm any thickness
Workmanship and Finish
The material will be free from blisters, pin holes, cracks, embedded foreign matters, and other defects, which may impair its serviceability, when visually examined
Voltage Test
The mat will withstand 15000 volts for one minute when tested. The mat will neither puncture, nor become appreciably warm at any spot or show any other evidence of weakness. The leakage current will not exceed 10 A/ sq. mtr, for any position of electrodes.
Break down strength
The mat will not fail at less than 40 KV, when tested in air between electrodes
