Electrical
Load strategy, distribution, lighting verified in DIALux, and earthing and lightning protection studies that stand up to review.
An electrical package a utility reviewer, a contractor and a commissioning team can all work from.
Who this is for Contractors, industrial owners and infrastructure developers needing distribution, lighting or protection design.
Price this scopeWhat you receive
Load schedule and distribution strategy
Connected and demand load by board, with diversity stated, sized for the tariff and the supply the utility will actually give.
Single-line diagrams and panel schedules
Protection, discrimination and cable sizing shown together, so the diagram and the schedule cannot disagree.
Lighting design verified in DIALux
Illuminance, uniformity and glare checked against the task, with the calculation file issued alongside the layout.
Earthing and lightning protection study
Earth resistance, electrode arrangement and the protection zone worked to BS 7430 and NFPA 780, with the soil data stated.
Site-wide infrastructure
Networks, substations, street lighting and utility corridors, coordinated with the civil layout before excavation.
Containment and cable route layouts
Trays, trunking and busbar routed in the coordinated model with the pulling and access space drawn in.

Load strategy, distribution, lighting verified in DIALux, and earthing and lightning protection studies that stand up to review.
How it is produced
The supply constraint comes first
Design starts from what the utility will actually connect, because a scheme that assumes a bigger supply is a redesign waiting to happen.
Lighting is verified, not specified
Every space is calculated in DIALux against its task, and the report is issued so the numbers can be checked.
Protection is co-ordinated end to end
Discrimination is checked from the incomer to the final circuit, not assumed from a manufacturer’s table.
Written for the reviewer who signs it
Drawings and calculation notes are laid out in the format the utility and the authority expect, from the first issue.

Questions clients ask
Do you issue the DIALux file or only the report?
Both. The native file goes with the report, so your team or a reviewer can rerun the calculation with different fittings.
Can you take a street-lighting scheme across a whole site?
Yes: the road network is modelled as a whole rather than street by street, which is what keeps the connected load down.
Who is responsible for the earthing design?
The engineer who produced the study signs it, and the soil data it relies on is stated on the front page so its basis is visible.
A question that is not here?
Ask the engineer who would run your project. Send the drawings and the answer comes back in writing.
Send us one package.
Send a package and you get a scope, a fixed price and a delivery date within two working days.
