writing these Conditions shall apply in full to any supply of goods by us to the exclusion of any Conditions
or terms sought to be imposed by any purchaser. These Conditions of Sale and Warranty Terms override
those which are contained on the Invoice Forms and all Sales are now subject to these Conditions of
Sale and Warranty terms only.
2. PRICE
Once an order or call off has been accepted the price will be held for three months but if delivery is extended
beyond that period at the customer’s request, then we reserve the right to amend the price when
necessary. The company reviews its pricing annually to adjust for changes in our cost base. We reserve the
right to alter prices at any time for severe movements in raw materials (mainly copper and steel). If there is
to be a change we will give customers at least thirteen weeks notice but anything delivered after that date
will be at the revised price. An order may not be cancelled or varied after acceptance without the written
consent of the company. Such cancellation or variation shall be subject to such reasonable charges as may
be appropriate.
3. SPECIFICATION
The goods are supplied in accordance with the Specifications (if any) submitted to the Purchaser and
any additions and alterations shall be the subject of an extra charge. Any goods not so specified shall
be in accordance with our printed literature or the literature of any of our component suppliers (subject
to any modifications made since publication). If we adopt any changes in construction or design of
the goods, or in the specification printed in our literature, the Purchaser shall accept the goods so
changed in fulfilment of the order.
4. PAYMENT

longer time as may be stated by our quotation or invoice. If we receive payment in full on or before the due date
we will allow an appropriate settlement discount except where we have quoted a special net price. If payment
is not received in full on or before the due date we shall be entitled in addition to the invoice price to:
(i) payment of a sum equal to any increase in the copper price supplement applicable to the particular goods
sold between the date of receipt of order and the date of receipt of payment in full; and
