Planning Electrical Work for a New Business Premises

Lay the right foundations with smart electrical planning.

Setting up in a new location is exciting — but a lot can go wrong if the electrics aren’t thought through. Here’s how I help business owners plan smart electrical setups that suit the space, the work, and the budget.

Know your layout before you wire

The layout of desks, counters, equipment, and lighting makes a big difference. A proper plan saves time and money.

Think about future needs

It’s easier to allow for extra sockets or capacity now than to add them later. Build in a little headroom.

Lighting is about more than brightness

Lighting affects how people feel in your space. For staff areas, choose lighting that reduces strain and improves visibility. For customer areas, think about how it reflects your brand.

Allow time in your fit-out schedule

Don’t leave electrics until the end. Electrical work often needs to happen before other trades can finish their parts.
