Electrical
Electrical design: power and low-voltage systems, lighting, lightning protection, life safety systems and data networks.
Design of the electrical installations, from the incoming supply to the socket.
Scope
- Power: incoming supply, main and sub-distribution, cabling
- Lighting, including verification of illuminance levels
- Life safety: emergency lighting, fire detection and alarm systems
- Lightning protection and earthing
- Data networks and building automation
In data centres and production
There the relationship inverts: the electrical design drives the building, not the other way round. Power density, redundancy and cooling fix the grid, the floor loads and the storey heights before the first layout exists.
