Industrial Electrical Project

Project Title: Cash & Carry
Location: London
Client: Cash & Carry
Electrical Contractor: Norm Electrical Engineering

Project Overview

Norm Electrical Engineering was appointed to deliver a full-scale electrical infrastructure solution for a large industrial facility in [location], supporting high-demand operations with robust, efficient, and regulation-compliant systems. The project included 3-phase power distribution, lighting, control systems, and equipment connections — all designed to meet the specific needs of a high-volume, safety-critical environment.

Key Features

✔ 3-Phase Power Distribution (400A–800A TP&N systems)
✔ Heavy-Duty Trunking, Containment & SWA Cabling
✔ Industrial Lighting & Emergency Systems (LED, High Bay)
✔ Machinery Connections – Compressors, conveyor systems, motors
✔ Control Panels & Automation Interface
✔ Energy Monitoring Systems & Surge Protection

Scope of Work

1. Design & Coordination

• Full electrical system design to BS 7671 standards

• Load calculations for machinery and plant equipment

• Single-line diagrams and cable schedules

• Coordination with site engineers, architects, and mechanical contractors

2. Main Power & Distribution

• Installation of main distribution boards & sub-distribution boards

• Cable routing using basket, tray, and trunking systems

• Installation of steel wire armoured (SWA) cabling

• Earthing & bonding in accordance with BS 7430

3. Lighting & Emergency Systems

• LED high-bay lighting for warehouses & production areas

• Emergency lighting compliant with BS 5266 & EN 1838

• External flood lighting for perimeter security

4. Equipment & Control Systems

• Dedicated circuits for industrial machinery and HVAC plant

• Installation of custom control panels

• Automation-ready cabling for future expansion

• Integration of energy management systems

5. Compliance & Certification

• Full Electrical Installation Certificate (EIC)

• As-fitted drawings & O&M manuals

• Compliance with:
  • BS 7671 (18th Edition)
  • Health & Safety at Work Act
  • Building Regulations Part P
  • Energy Efficiency Standards (if applicable)

Challenges & Solutions

⚠ High Power Demand?
→ Installed oversized cabling and surge protection to mitigate voltage drops and power quality issues.

⚠ Phased Construction Schedule?
→ Delivered work in sequenced phases to avoid production disruption.

⚠ Dusty/Harsh Environment?
→ Used IP-rated fittings, glands, and enclosures to ensure safety and durability.
