The CATU MV-232/1 MV Live Working Safety Shoes are designed to protect electricians against step voltage during live working operations. They provide electrical hazard resistance up to 18 kV and support safe movement during work at height, including ladders and pylons. The robust construction combines electrical insulation, thermal resistance, and mechanical protection for demanding medium-voltage applications.
