Older commercial buildings requiring electrical upgrades Whether you require a complete electrical rewire or targeted upgrades to an existing installation, we can assess the property and recommend the most appropriate solution.

Older electrical installations can become unsuitable as a business's electrical requirements increase.

Signs that your commercial premises may require rewiring or significant electrical upgrades can include: Frequent blown fuses or tripped circuits, Flickering or unreliable lighting, Overheating sockets, switches or electrical equipment, Insufficient sockets for modern equipment, Outdated or overloaded distribution boards, Old or damaged wiring, Electrical equipment regularly causing circuit trips, Previous electrical work that is undocumented or difficult to verify, A building undergoing renovation or change of use.

An electrical installation that has not been inspected for an extended period If you're unsure about the condition of your electrical installation, we can assess the existing system and advise on the work required.

For older or substantially outdated installations, a complete commercial rewire may be the safest and most cost-effective long-term solution.

A commercial rewire can involve replacing existing cabling and circuits throughout the property and upgrading the electrical distribution system to suit the building's current requirements.
Depending on the property, the project may include: New electrical cabling, New circuits and circuit protection, Distribution board upgrades, Socket and switch replacement, Internal and external lighting circuits, Emergency lighting, Fire and smoke alarm wiring, Data and ancillary electrical requirements, Equipment and machinery supplies, Testing and inspection, Certification following completion.

We plan each project around the individual property rather than taking a one-size-fits-all approach.

Once first fix electrical work is complete, the areas opened up for the new wiring can be made good.

This may involve: Filling chases, Repairing damaged plaster, Patching walls, Preparing surfaces for decoration.

The exact level of making good depends on the property and the agreed scope of work. In older Dublin houses, particularly properties with lath-and-plaster or delicate original finishes, additional care may be needed. It's worth discussing plastering and decorating before work begins so everyone is clear about what is included.

Testing is an important part of any commercial electrical installation.

Following electrical work, appropriate inspection and testing is carried out to verify that the installation is operating safely and correctly.

TJ O’Brien Electrical is Safe Electric registered and QC certified for testing, providing businesses with confidence that their electrical work is being carried out by experienced professionals.

Where applicable, the required certification and documentation can be provided following completion of the works.
