Electrical installations for new-build, renovation and sustainability projects
A reliable electrical installation forms the foundation of every home and building. NOVECTRA helps private individuals, businesses, contractors and property owners with the design, modification, extension and installation of electrical systems.
From technical analysis to complete electrical installation
A reliable electrical installation forms the foundation of every home and building. NOVECTRA helps private individuals, businesses, contractors and property owners with the design, modification, extension and installation of electrical systems.
From a new consumer unit or extension of an existing installation to complete renovation and sustainability projects: we assess the technical condition of the building, the existing installation and future energy requirements.
From advice and technical analysis to installation, documentation and handover.
Our electrical installation services
NOVECTRA supports clients with a wide range of electrical engineering requirements. We combine technical expertise with a practical approach and consider the relationship between the electrical installation, the building and any sustainable energy solutions.
We assess, among other things:
- the existing electrical installation;
- the capacity of the grid connection;
- the technical condition of the installation;
- the consumer unit and distribution;
- the available capacity for future extensions;
- cabling and protective devices;
- opportunities for improving energy efficiency;
- connections for new technical installations;
- and the required technical documentation.
Based on this, we develop a practical and technically sound plan.
Consumer unit advice and modifications
The consumer unit is at the heart of the electrical installation. Particularly during renovation and sustainability projects, it is important to assess in advance whether the existing installation is suitable for future extensions.
NOVECTRA advises on and delivers, among other things:
- extension or replacement of consumer units;
- single-phase and three-phase solutions;
- additional circuits;
- modifications for solar PV systems;
- connections for EV charging points;
- provisions for heat pumps and electric heating;
- connections for home battery systems;
- distribution and capacity requirements;
- technical preparation for future extensions.
We therefore look not only at what is required today, but also at what may need to be added in the future.
Technical condition assessment of electrical installations
For existing homes and buildings, it is important to establish what is already in place.
NOVECTRA can assess the technical condition of an electrical installation and provide insight into potential areas of concern, risks and opportunities for expansion.
A technical assessment may form part of, for example:
- a home renovation;
- an energy-efficiency project;
- the purchase or renovation of property;
- an extension of the electrical installation;
- the installation of solar PV;
- the installation of an EV charging point;
- the installation of a heat pump;
- the installation of a home battery system;
- or a complete refurbishment.
The result is a clear technical starting point for the next stage.
Tailored solutions for improving energy efficiency
Improving energy efficiency has a direct impact on the electrical installation. Increasingly, technical systems need to work together.
For example, a home or commercial property may combine solar PV, an EV charging point, a heat pump, electric heating, battery storage and an energy management system.
NOVECTRA combines electrical engineering expertise with knowledge of sustainable energy systems. This means we can not only deliver individual installations, but also consider the system as a whole.
What capacity is available? What will the installation require in the future? What does the consumer unit need to be prepared for? And which extensions will still be possible at a later stage?
These are questions we consider from the very beginning of a project.
Lighting and lighting plans
A good lighting plan starts with the function of a space. Where are lighting points required? How should they be switched? Which connections are needed and how should the lighting be technically integrated into the electrical installation?
NOVECTRA provides the electrical engineering preparation and installation of lighting and lighting plans for homes, renovation projects and other buildings.
Connections for alarm systems and CCTV installations
Security is also increasingly becoming part of the technical installation of a home or business.
NOVECTRA can provide the required electrical infrastructure for, among other things:
- alarm systems;
- CCTV installations;
- security components;
- power supplies and cabling;
- connection points;
- and provisions for future expansion.
We design the electrical infrastructure so that security systems can be reliably and neatly integrated.
Standards & certification for electrical installations
Safety, quality and reliability are central to every electrical installation. We therefore work in accordance with the relevant technical standards and regulations applicable to each project.
NEN 1010
NEN 1010 sets out requirements for the design and installation of low-voltage electrical installations. The standard plays an important role in new electrical installations and when extending or modifying existing installations.
For electrical engineering work, we consider the requirements applicable to the specific installation and situation.
NEN 3140
NEN 3140 focuses on the safe operation of low-voltage electrical installations and the safe execution of work on electrical installations and electrical equipment.
For businesses, property owners and facilities managers, this can be an important part of the safe management and maintenance of electrical installations.
SCIOS Scope 8, Scope 10 en Scope 12
SCIOS inspections may be relevant in specific situations.
The SCIOS scheme includes, among others:
- Scope 8 – inspection of electrical installations;
- Scope 10 – inspection of electrical equipment in relation to fire risk;
- Scope 12 – inspection of solar PV installations.
Which inspection is relevant depends on the installation, the use of the building and the specific requirements set, for example, by an owner, client or insurer.
Do you require a SCIOS Scope 8, Scope 10 or Scope 12 inspection? NOVECTRA can help assess the technical situation and determine which inspection or technical next step is appropriate.
Technical documentation and professional handover
An electrical installation is only truly complete when it is also clear how the installation has been configured and what has been delivered.
Well-documented electrical installations make future maintenance, modifications and extensions easier. NOVECTRA therefore places strong emphasis on professional technical handover and the associated documentation.
Where relevant, we provide, among other things:
- installation details;
- circuit schedules;
- technical diagrams;
- connection details;
- relevant measurement and test data;
- documentation of installed systems;
- and information for future maintenance and expansion.
This provides the owner, facilities manager or client with a clear technical overview of the completed installation.
