Our Process
How We Work With Gyms & Leisure
01
Leisure Facility Electrical Survey
We assess the gym or leisure facility's electrical systems including equipment power, wet-area lighting, sauna and spa circuits, and sports hall illumination. We review compliance status and identify capacity for new equipment and technology.
02
Wet-Area & High-Load Design
We design IP-rated systems for pool areas, saunas, and changing rooms with proper SELV protection. Equipment circuits are designed for simultaneous high-load use, and sports hall lighting delivers uniform, shadow-free illumination.
03
Member-Friendly Installation
We schedule work during closure periods, early mornings, or in isolated zones to maintain gym operations. For urgent repairs, we work in cordoned areas to keep the majority of the facility open for members.
04
Testing & Compliance Handover
All wet-area circuits are tested for proper protection, equipment power is load-tested, and emergency lighting is commissioned. We provide full certification for leisure facility insurance and local authority compliance.
