What this work involves
Have a competent electrician assess the existing installation and proposed additions. Work from the final layout and appliance list.
- Sockets and switching
- Supplies and cable routes
- Checks and handover information
Use the following design considerations when coordinating this service with a wider project. Agree which parts apply to your request.
Plan service routes without unnecessarily concealing the intended exposed structure.
Decide this before construction
Coordinate the visible detail before producing structural elements. Plan services and finishes early so unwanted boxing does not later surround a deliberately exposed connection.
Allow for later maintenance
Keep protective-coating and finish information with structural documentation. Have later alterations to exposed structural elements assessed beforehand.
Cost factors for this service
Costs depend on number of points, existing installation, cable routes and reinstatement. Ask for the scope and selected specification to be described separately.
Bring this to the discussion
Photographs of the existing situation, available drawings and your requirements for electrical installation work. Identify the elements that should remain.
Questions about the work
What should I discuss before arranging electrical installation work?
Include furniture and fixed appliances on the plan. This helps place connections where they will actually be useful.
The design situations here illustrate choices; they are not completed projects or a diagnosis of your property.
