PG Electrics are your local electrical experts in Cwmbran and regularly carry out outbuilding electrical installations across the area.
Why Install Electrics into an Outbuilding?
Where you have an outbuilding, its use will always be limited without an electrical supply into the building. Installing an electrical supply into the building will mean that there is lighting available and plug sockets for using equipment. This can turn a storage shed into a workshop for hobbies, crafts and work activities that can be used in the winter by adding a small electrical heater for example.
Common uses for outbuilding electrics
A summer house, garden room, garden office or workshop is not a useful building without an electrical supply installed. These rooms can create additional living space to your property, enable working from home and allow entertainment spaces all year round. There are many possibilities for installing electrical systems in these spaces. With a little imagination, your outbuilding could be transformed into a garden office with power for computers, printers, internet, lighting and more. Perhaps a home Gym is more your style and you need lighting and power for equipment?
Legal and Safety Regulations
With the installation of electrical wiring and systems come the necessity for safety and compliance. There are hundreds of pages of wiring regulations that need to be adhered to when carrying out electrical installations and safety requirements that need to be considered. At PG Electrics, we are specialists in the installation of outbuilding electrical systems and ensure that all wiring and building regulations are adhered to.
Electrical testing and certification should be completed whenever installations like outbuilding electrics take place. An electrical installation certificate should be completed when new electrical circuits are added to a property and in domestic settings, this kind of installation work needs to be notified to the local building control department which is a legal requirement.
Fortunately, we can take care of all of this for you so you need not worry.
Planning the Electrical System Additions
Before any installation work can take place, the current electrical system will be inspected to ensure that any additions will not overload or compromise the existing electrical system. Where electrical installations have not been updated since they were installed or are particularly old, additional works may need to be carried out to ensure that they meet current safety regulations.
The new electrical installation needs to be professionally designed to ensure that factors like voltage drop, cable capacities and installation methods are considered. We can discuss your intended use of the outbuilding with you to determine what needs to be done in order to achieve the results you desire.
