Environmentally Speaking

The environmental impact of conventional home-run electrical cabling versus Cii plug & play power solutions is significant. Electrical wiring and cabling is a $20.5 billion dollar industry in the U.S. In a recent study ranking building elements for their impact on air pollution, global warming and toxic releases; electrical cabling is in the top eight worst offenders. (Interior Construction was actually ranked twice as bad!) Lead used in the PVC lining of electrical wiring is the biggest worry. Not when it is in place in the building and in use – but when it is cut and either left in the plenum space or disposed in landfills. The cables cut and left in the plenum release lead particles 10,000 times the allowed level for humans. In the landfill, lead leaches into the soil and water table or disintegrates into dust and blows around. There is no cost-effective way to recycle lead and PVC.

So by having a Cii plug & play electrical system from the beginning you don’t have to worry about cutting and disposing the cables – you simply unplug and re-plug every time you move people, furniture and/or walls around. By not cutting cables, the lead in the sheathing stays contained.
