Electrical Distribution forms the heart of every domestic commercial & industrial electrical installation throughout the country. PP Electrical Services can install, maintain, and repair any electrical distribution system old or new in line with all current regulations.

Domestic

A domestic property will utilise a consumer unit as its electrical distribution method. Incorporated within this will be either fuses, miniature circuit breakers, residual current (RCD) device or residual-current circuit breaker with overcurrent protection RCBO. The consumer unit forms the starting point for all services within the building and protects the occupants against electric shock and fire risk to the property.

Commercial

A small commercial property will utilise a consumer unit as above but a larger commercial property may use a larger distribution board as its electrical distribution method. Incorporated within this will be either fuses, miniature circuit breakers, residual current (RCD) device or residual-current circuit breaker with overcurrent protection RCBO. The distribution board forms the starting point for all services within the building and protects the occupants against electric shock and fire risk to the property.
The main difference between this and the domestic consumer unit above is in its construction and capacity.

Industrial

A large industrial property will utilise a distribution board as above for local supplies, but its electrical distribution may well look a lot bigger to suit the required increase of electrical capacity. The smaller distribution boards as above will still use miniature circuit breakers, residual current (RCD) device or residual-current circuit breaker with overcurrent protection RCBO. These local distribution boards may well be connected to a main incoming panel which forms the starting point for all services within the building.
