Surrey Smarthome is proud to have reached its 5 year anniversary as an NICIEC Approved Contractor.
The National Inspection Council for Electrical Installation Contracting is a highly trusted UK regulatory body for the Electrical Industry.
Approved Contractors have to be qualified and competent to carry out electrical work meeting the requirements of the BS7671 Electrical Regulations.
We are audited every year to make sure that we are maintaining high standards and keeping up with changing regulations.
Being an Approved Contractor also gives our clients peace of mind that our work is fully insured and we have all the appropriate health and safety policies in place.
After a long planning period and ground works delayed by heavy rainfall, Surrey Smarthome can at last make a start on an exciting new Smarthome in Reigate.
The 1st phase of this project is the groundfloor rear extension encompassing a huge Kitchen Diner, Games room, Utility and Plant room.
With 2 large Ground Source Heat Pumps, an EV Charge point, 3 ovens, 6 bedrooms and the possibility of a pool at a future stage, the calculated max load was 180A putting it well above the 100A limit for a single phase supply.
The quote from the DNO to upgrade the property to a 3 phase supply was an eye-watering £36,000. So instead of this we are going to use Loxone’s new Energy Meter and Energy Management software to keep the house below the 100A cutout fuse limit. This, coupled with a 5KW Solar Panel array will also help the client to keep on top of his energy usage and save money.
