Electrical Design Service
Skerritts believes that strong electrical design is the foundation of every successful project. Whether it’s a commercial development, industrial facility or public building, the team works closely with clients to create systems that are safe, efficient and built to last. Every design is commissioned to the specific needs of the site, with careful consideration given to future expansion, energy use and compliance. From power distribution to life safety systems, Skerritts ensures that every element is planned with precision and delivered with confidence.
HV / LV Mains Distribution
Skerritts designs high and low-voltage systems that form the core of a building’s electrical infrastructure. These systems are carefully planned to provide safe, balanced and reliable power delivery across all areas of the site.
Sub-Mains
Secondary distribution systems are designed to support the safe and efficient flow of electricity from the main intake to various zones or equipment, with layouts tailored to the building’s structure and usage.
Lighting Controls
Lighting control systems are integrated into the design to improve energy efficiency and user comfort. These include presence detection, daylight dimming and timed settings to suit the building’s function.
Life Safety Power
Emergency lighting, alarms and evacuation equipment are supported by dedicated power supplies. These are designed to remain operational during power loss or emergencies.
Containment
Cable containment is planned from the outset to ensure neat, accessible and compliant installations. Trunking, trays and conduits are specified to suit the environment and future maintenance.
Metering
Energy metering is included in the design to help clients monitor usage and identify areas for improvement. This supports energy efficiency goals and simplifies tenant billing where required.
Earthing
Earthing systems are designed to protect people and equipment by safely directing fault currents to ground. All designs meet the latest safety standards and regulations.
Vertical & Horizontal Busbar Systems
Busbar systems are specified where space-saving, flexibility and ease of installation are priorities. Ideal for risers and large open-plan areas.
Fire Detection & Alarm
Fire alarm systems are designed to provide early warning and support safe evacuation. Skerritts selects the right detection methods for each space, from open-plan offices to plant rooms.
AOV Systems
Automatic opening vents (AOV) are included in the design to support smoke control strategies. These systems help maintain visibility and air quality during a fire, aiding evacuation and firefighting.
PA/VA System
Public address and voice alarm systems are designed to deliver clear, intelligible messages throughout the building. These are especially important in large or complex environments.
Structured Cabling
Data cabling is designed to support current and future Information Technology (IT) needs, with layouts that allow for easy upgrades and minimal disruption.
