Electrical installations

Life without electricity is completely unimaginable. The importance of electrical energy will also increase in the future. On the one hand, because more and more equipment is being operated electrically. Secondly, because electricity has now been established for many decades as an inexpensive, very efficient and safe source of energy.

Electricity is also a matter of trust. Improper installations are a danger to people and property. Although laypersons are theoretically allowed to carry out electrical installations (under certain restrictive conditions), it makes sense to commission a professional to do so.

Electrical installations are also an investment in the future. Particularly in new builds or conversions, inexpensive solutions can be implemented that enable a wide range of useful and energy-saving functions. The various areas of a house (lighting, blinds, access, alarm, ventilation/heating, energy measurement...) can not only be operated, but also controlled, monitored and analyzed. And even from anywhere.

 

Building technology
The trend towards networking the various components of building technology (electricity, water, heating, ventilation, access control, etc...) is likely to be irreversible in the long term. It is also often possible to implement interesting functions with simple tools.

The demand for efficient, flexible and clear building technology is not only understandable, but also makes sense in terms of environmental protection.

Simple controls:

• Presence and motion detectors
• Remote switch via mobile phone
• Central off switch for lights and other consumers, vacation absence programs (heating reduction, random control of lights/blinds)
• Biometric access systems: keyless
  
  More complex  control systems:
• Networking of building technology via bus (e.g. KNX, Hager Tebis). Status display on screen and/or touchscreen.
• Changes can be implemented purely on the software side

Controls

All electrical installations must be checked for safety and functionality at various intervals. As soon as the installation is free of defects, this is recorded and documented on a safety certificate. The local electricity company will draw your attention to the necessary inspection before the deadline. It is the owner's responsibility to arrange this inspection and have any defects rectified.

As a safety consultant with a federal certificate, I am authorized to inspect systems for safety. I will also be happy to advise you on possible options that usually guarantee a higher level of protection for people and property without requiring large financial resources.
