Electrical Design

  • Full ‘design and build projects’

  • Adopting stage 3 tender designs and applying the technical design aspect through to handover

  • Single cable calculations. (With or without a schematic ). With a particular emphasis when needed on the type of cable and optimising this by considering parallel connections

  • Data Logging

  • Load Density Analysis. For determining design loadings. (Particularly useful for determining the adequacy of an existing supply when refurbishing a building before a full design is undertaken)

  • Selectivity Studies (to provide for suitable coordination between protective devices)

  • Power Factor Correction

  • Voltage Drop Analysis

  • Cable Temperature Approximation

  • Power Quality with regard to  Manufacturer’s Voltage fluctuations and Flicker Statements complying with EN/IEC 61000-3-2 and EN/IEC 61000-3-3 when required by a DNO (Distribution Network Operator)

CAD Services

TESTIMONIALS

"We've been using Benchmark for over a year now and have formed a great relationship with the Benchmark team. We've done many projects together, and they've always delivered on time (even on short timeframes). We can always rely on Benchmark to produce the best solution for the design and installation...I won't use anyone else now."

About Us

ABOUT US

We are an independent electrical design company with 30 years experience operating in the electrical services sector.

​

We specialise in ‘design and build projects’ (from conception to handover) in commercial and industrial applications, alongside commercial and workplace electric vehicle charging installations. With a particular emphasis on the application and optimisation of BS7671.

 

As well as full electrical installation designs, we also offer services such as single cable calculations where a full design is not required. This can be particularly beneficial where larger sized cables are required. We specialise in sizing such cables to carry currents from 200A-1250A per phase.

 

We can also offer a comprehensive 2D CAD service, including providing ‘as built drawings/record drawings’ for projects. We can also assist in putting together an electronic Operation and Maintenance Instruction Manual (O&M Manual) for the project.

 

Additionally with our CAD services we can offer full fire alarm zone plans/fire emergency escape plans in line with BS5839–1 and BS5266.

 

All of our designs come with an extensive range of cable calculations using up-to-date software alongside detailed schematic and plan drawings. We also offer a ‘mix and match' service of all of the above where, as an example, only a schematic drawing or a report detailing the calculations may be required.

 

We also specialise in electric vehicle charging points in commercial and workplace environments. Our charging solutions cover everything from single point installations to large commercial premises.

Most recently we have utilized a charge point operator to provide a fully customisable EV charging solution for customers that require a back office system to control who can use the charge point, when and at what cost. This allows everything to be fully customisable and tailored to your needs.

 

Our design team are professionally registered with:

​

The Engineering Council

​

And are members of the following institutions:

​

Chartered Institution of Building Services Engineers

The Institution of Engineering and Technology
