What is Involved in Electrical Fit Outs?
When put simply, a ‘fit-out’ is just the series of steps taken to get a workspace ready to be functional. They usually include a range of tradespeople for tasks such as installing furniture, office spaces, and electrical systems. Electrical fit outs focus on ensuring all wiring for power, data and other connectivity is ready for the office, commercial, or educational space to operate at its peak. There are many electrical wiring services involved in a fit out, so let’s take a look at some of the main ones.
- Circuit design and installation – there will be multiple electrical circuits in any office space, one for the light, for any appliances, and several for the various power outlets. Installing these circuits to keep the lights on and have conveniently placed power anywhere is important for effective electrical fit outs.
- Installing data and communication systems – Electricity is not the only need for wiring in office design. Many commercial spaces will need a point of sale system connected to their network and educational or office spaces will need workstations connected to the internal network and the internet. Electrical wiring services are needed to create all of these connections.
- Backup power as needed – this may include connecting to emergency generators or installing uninterruptible power supplies for critical hardware in case of an outage for any reason.
- Switchboard set up – most existing buildings will already have an electrical switchboard, but it may be old and require an upgrade. A properly connected switchboard with quality circuit breakers and good labeling will save many headaches later.
Electrical wiring services are vital to getting any commercial, office, or education space running smoothly. The best systems will be complete in function and not intrude on the space with tripping hazards or unsightly wires dangling in easy view.
