  • New Products take Hannover Messe by storm!

    We once again visited Hannover Messe to demonstrate our new range of products and what a response we received.

    Some of the industry’s biggest names visited the stand and commented on our success and ability to design new, innovative products and keep the costs down.

    The products that stole the show were once again our “Easywire Metering” System which is designed to ensure a faster installation with minimal wiring errors and our New Rayleigh connect monitoring software which is user friendly and customizable to meet the customer’s specific requirements.

    With our rapid growth in and outside of the UK we had a lot of interest from European countries to become a Rayleigh Instruments approved Distributor to promote our products worldwide.

    If you are interested in becoming a Rayleigh approved distributor please contact Jamie Sales - j.sales@rayleigh.co.uk
    Stay tuned to find out where we are exhibiting next!

  • Join us at Hannover Messe 2016

    The President of the United States Barack Obama and the German Chancellor Angela Merkel are due to open Hannover Messe 2016 which is the world's most important trade fair for industrial technology. The show runs from Monday, 25th to Friday, 29th April in Hanover Germany. President Obama is due to appear at the exhibitions official opening ceremony on Sunday, 24th April and is scheduled to accompany Merkel on the traditional opening tour on Monday morning. Approximately 5,000 companies from 70 countries will be exhibiting at Hannover this year making it a 'must visit' event.

    Rayleigh Instruments are delighted to be exhibiting again at the exhibition after their very successful appearance last year. Rayleigh will again be showing their Cloud based remote monitoring, control and billing system rayleighconnect™ along with their fantastically successful easywire® system for the rapid wiring and installation of Multifunction Energy Meters and Three Phase Current Transformers - again both systems are expected to generate a tremendous amount of interest. They will also be showing a raft of brand new products at the show - watch this space!

    rayleighconnect™ - the Remote Monitoring and Control Solution
    Rayleigh Connect is a cloud based energy management and remote control software package. Users can access the software online from any terminal (PC, Ipad or smart phone) that has connection to the internet, or offline if required. Applications are also available for IPhone, IPad and Android devices.When used as an energy management metering solution it allows the user to record data from one up to 4096 electricity, gas, water, heat meters or temperature sensor. Any device with pulse outputs or RS485 modbus can be connected via an interface module. These devices then transmit the collected data to the software , at a selectable frequency from once per minute up to once per month. When used with MID approved energy meters the system can also be used for automatic remote billing (upgraded licence required).

    Save Time, Save Money with easywire®
    UK and EU Patent Approved - more countries to come.

    A unique concept that dramatically reduces the wiring/installation time of multifunction power meters and current transformers by 90% - the original and best.

    These savings are made possible due to the innovative design of both the current transformers and the meters, which allow plug in connectors to be used for both current and voltage input/output. An RJ45 lead is used for connecting between the three phase current transformer and meter, and 'readymade' plug in leads are used for the voltage input.

  • CEF - Electrical Wholesale Show

    City Electrical Factors have hosted their first wholesale electrical trade show. The event was held in Hall 9 at the NEC, Birmingham on Friday 19th June 2015. The CEF Live event hosted more than 40 industry leading manufacturers, with product learning seminars by industry experts as well as innovative product launches.

    This event was a must for electrical contractors; architects; specifiers; public sector bodies and private sector Companies.

    Rayleigh Instruments were delighted to be showing products at this inaugural event including their range of Elster kWh meters, Easywire meters and current transformers, their range of Elko and Datexel products along with Rayleigh energy meters and many of their stocked CT's.

    We wish this event every success in the future.

  • Hannover Messe a Great Success!

    EasyWire = Save Time, Save Money...
    UK and EU Patent Approved - more countries to come.

An RJ45 lead is used for connecting between the three phase current transformer and meter, and 'readymade' plug in leads are used for the voltage input.

    The meters are provided with both input and output voltage connections which allows multiple meters to be powered from one supply.

    Daisy-chain up to 32 Meters!... Power up to 32 Energy Meters from a single power source.

    Power-up your meter... Plug the ready-made ‘supply’ lead connector into your meter. Connect the other, ferrule tipped, ends to the supply, not forgetting to use the correct fuses, and you’re done.

    Connect your current transformer Plug one end of the RJ45 lead into the multifunction power meter and the other end into the three-phase current transformer and you’re done - it’s that simple.

    More than one meter?... Plug the ready-made ‘linking’ lead connector from your first meter to your second

    This system is safer than using traditional current transformers because Easywire transformers incorporate the resistive shunts usually located within the power meter. This means that the secondaries are always loaded, therefore eliminating the possibility of dangerously high voltages developing during open circuit conditions.

    This allows the meter to current transformer to be disconnected without the need for secondary shorting terminals, again saving money and reducing downtime.

    Rayleigh Instruments were proud to have exhibited at this fantastic show, and will look be be present again in 2016 - Thank you to all those who attended - see you next year!

  • Easywire - Save Time, Save Money...

    Rayleigh Instruments has introduced a novel method of wiring and installing power meters and current transformers. The new 'EasyWire' system substantially reduces the time it takes to wire and install three phase current transformers and multifunction energy meters, thanks to a design that allows plug-in connections to be used for both current and voltage input/output. An RJ45 lead is used to connect transformer and meter, and ready-made plug-in leads are used for voltage input.

    The meters are provided with both input and output voltage connections, which allow up to 32 meters to be daisy-chained to a common supply voltage via the first meter. There is a choice of five three-phase current transformer frames sizes, and a choice of two meter designs.

    "Labour savings of up to 90% are possible when compared to traditional wiring methods with our new EasyWire system."
