An often overlooked but important aspect is a requirement for all electrical work to be designed in accordance with BS7671.
The process can be complex and includes an assessment of the current or intended electrical supply, working out how much electricity an item of equipment will use, selecting the appropriate protective device, selecting the size of cable, and ensuring the equipment is suitable for the intended environment. Calculations for voltage drop, short-circuit and fault protection need to be carried out, as well as an assessment of the maximum demand of the whole installation.
This needs to be done for each intended new circuit, or alteration to an existing circuit and applies whether it is just adding a single circuit (such as a new shower), a complete re-wire, or new build installation.
Architects, builders, property developers, self-builders, and DIY projects would all benefit from having their intended electrical work professionally designed. Using CAD software, we can ensure your project is compliant to current regulations, assisting you in delivering your projects on time and within budget.
