EXISTING INDUSTRIAL & COMMERCIAL ELECTRICICAL SYSTEMS


Is Your Electrical Infrastructure Limiting Your Business?


Many commercial buildings continue to operate with electrical infrastructure that was designed for a completely different operational requirement. As businesses grow, additional equipment, office refurbishments and tenant alterations often place increasing demands on ageing electrical systems that were never designed to support today’s power requirements.


Common issues we regularly identify include:


Ageing switchgear is approaching the end of its operational life.
The electrical infrastructure has insufficient capacity for business expansion.
Distribution boards or circuits are becoming overloaded.
Inadequate electrical resilience is creating single points of failure.
Legacy installations have been modified over many years without an electrical strategy.
Temporary electrical installations have become permanent solutions.
Electrical documentation no longer reflects the current installation.
There is insufficient spare capacity for new tenants, machinery or plant.
Obsolete electrical equipment is increasing maintenance costs.
Poor energy efficiency is increasing operational costs.

Commercial Electrical Installation – Case Study

Industrial & Commercial Electrical Infrastructure Upgrade

Eden Shopping Centre, High Wycombe

The Challenge

As part of the redevelopment of the former House of Fraser building within Eden Shopping Centre, Jardak Services appointed Whitton Electrical to deliver multiple phases of electrical infrastructure works.

The building needed to be transformed into a flexible commercial development capable of supporting multiple future retail and commercial tenants. Its existing electrical infrastructure required substantial modification, including switchgear upgrades, new landlord and tenant distribution, metering infrastructure and modern lighting systems.

Working alongside numerous contractors in a fast-paced construction environment, Whitton Electrical needed to deliver a coordinated engineering solution that supported the redevelopment programme while creating a safe, resilient and expandable electrical infrastructure.


Our Solution

Whitton Electrical delivered a complete commercial and industrial electrical solution covering infrastructure upgrades, power distribution, landlord services, tenant supplies, lighting and controls.

The existing switchgear was modified to accommodate Business Network Operator switching arrangements. New SSEN current-transformer chambers and COP5 landlord metering were installed, alongside individual electrical supplies for future tenants.

High-efficiency LED lighting, integrated emergency lighting and intelligent wireless controls were installed throughout service areas and public circulation spaces. Occupancy sensors and automatic lighting controls reduced unnecessary energy consumption while maintaining appropriate illumination.

The work was delivered in coordinated phases alongside the principal contractor and wider construction team, with all systems fully tested, commissioned and certified on completion.

The Outcome

Whitton Electrical delivered a resilient, energy-efficient and fully expandable electrical infrastructure capable of supporting multiple commercial occupiers and the long-term development of the property.

Ready for Multiple
Tenants

The new distribution and metering infrastructure allows future retail and commercial occupiers to connect without major alterations to the building’s primary electrical systems.

Coordinated Infrastructure
Delivery

Switchgear, power distribution, metering, lighting, emergency lighting and controls were delivered as one coordinated electrical solution.

Built for Future
Change

Expandable distribution and open-protocol lighting controls allow the building to adapt as occupancy and operational requirements evolve.
