Electrical Riser Diagrams
Before you can appreciate how an electrical power distribution system works, you need to understand first what are the components and elements that go into the system. There is not much sense going into detail if you do not understand the overall electrical makeup of your building project. Electrical riser diagram, or one-line diagram, might seem incomprehensible at first, but once you get the hand of it, you will explicitly understand why you will need one for the full functionality of your low-rise to high-rise building.
To be able to read electrical riser diagrams accurately, one would need to have a professional electrical expertise. At NY Engineers, our duly licensed electrical engineers do not only scan these electrical riser diagrams, but we design them ourselves. We are involved in the process from the start to the end – we plan accordingly and set specific design parameters for your project. Our design approach is rooted in a high-caliber iterative process – we do not stop until we get your electrical power distribution system right.
Through our unparalleled experience in handling simple to complex projects, you are assured that quality assurance and control is on top of our list with our electrical riser diagrams. We do not just carry all the load ourselves – we coordinate with the proper authorities having jurisdiction on your project. To start, we determine your service entrance location and ask queries from the utility company serving your area regarding the service voltage available.
As we define the first items to tick off in the checklist, we shift to the detailed micro components such as establishing the location of electrical closets, vaults and shafts. In a typical high-rise building, this is fairly easy to locate. From there, we move level-by-level and upward as we effectively determine the position of distribution panelboards and switchboards in connection with the branch wiring design. All of these components add up and compose the totality of your electrical power distribution system.
Once iterative design is achieved, our skilled electrical engineers will conduct a final look-over to see if all allocated components are functioning hand-in-hand and will overall contribute to the optimal electrical performance of your building. We study the full complexity of how different specifications of various electrical components work together so you can understand how your lighting, power, heating, ventilation and elevator systems function.
At NY Engineers, our professional expertise enables us to design electrical riser diagrams in all facets and types of occupancy. We are specialists in integrating the contrast between the unique design characteristics of residential, commercial, institutional or industrial power riser diagrams. From planning, to design development, site installation, testing and commissioning, turnover and facility maintenance – you are guaranteed that we stay on top of things to keep your electrical power distribution system running smoothly.
