Electric Rewire

During the rewiring process, it may be possible to remain open, depending on the scope of the work and your specific business setup.

Our team at Datel Electrical will work closely with you to minimise disruption, often scheduling rewiring during off-peak hours or in stages to ensure that your operations can continue smoothly. Communication is key, and we’ll discuss the best approach to keep your business running while enhancing your electrical system.

The duration of a commercial rewire can vary significantly depending on several factors, such as the size of the premises, the complexity of the existing wiring, and the specific requirements of the new installation.

On average, a complete rewire for a medium-sized commercial property can take anywhere from a few days to several weeks.

For instance, a small office might be rewired in just a few days, while larger facilities or those with intricate electrical systems might require more extensive planning and execution, potentially extending the timeframe.

Several signs indicate that your commercial property may need an electrical rewire, and being vigilant can prevent safety hazards. If

you frequently experience:

• Flickering lights
• Tripping of circuit breakers
• Electrical shocks when using outlets
• Old, rubber-coated wiring
• A burning smell or scorch marks around outlets

These are strong indicators of outdated or faulty wiring. Regular inspections and staying attuned to these warning signs can ensure the safety and functionality of your commercial space.

Our team of electricians are highly skilled in both commercial and domestic electrics and rewiring. However, the two are different and require different skills. Commercial wiring typically requires a three-phase power supply, whereas residential wiring requires only a single-phase power supply. Result, in a commercial rewire, more wires, cables and circuits are disrupted correctly, safely and securely, compared to a domestic electrical rewire.
