Solution

Magma Electrical Ltd. designed and implemented a tailored electrical solution that met the operational needs of the expanded warehouse while maintaining a focus on safety, reliability, and long-term efficiency.

  • Design and Planning:

    Our expert electrical engineers conducted a detailed assessment of the warehouse's current electrical infrastructure. After reviewing the requirements for the new machinery, lighting, and office areas, a customized layout was designed, incorporating multiple distribution boards to ensure balanced load management and optimal power delivery.

  • Installation of Distribution Boards:

    Multiple distribution boards were installed throughout the warehouse to supply power to different sections of the facility:

    • Machinery Supply: Distribution boards were installed to cater to the heavy power demands of the new machinery. This ensured that the machinery received a stable and sufficient power supply, crucial for their operation without any interruptions.

    • Lighting: Separate circuits were set up for the lighting systems, ensuring that both warehouse floor and office areas were adequately illuminated, enhancing both operational efficiency and safety.

    • Office Supply: A dedicated distribution board was designed to power the office spaces, including computer systems, HVAC, and other essential office equipment. This provided a clean and consistent power supply separate from the industrial machinery load.

  • Safety Compliance and Testing:

    The installation adhered to all relevant safety codes and standards, including the latest regulations for industrial electrical systems. After installation, comprehensive testing was conducted to ensure the system’s reliability and safety, including load testing.

  • Integration with Existing Infrastructure:

    Magma Electrical Ltd ensured smooth integration of the new distribution boards with the existing electrical infrastructure, making sure the system worked seamlessly and that no part of the facility was left without power during the upgrade.

Conclusion:

Magma Electrical Ltd successfully delivered a robust and reliable electrical solution for Aktrion Automotive, which not only met the immediate demands of their expanded facility but also ensured flexibility for future growth. The installation of multiple distribution boards has provided the client with a secure, efficient, and scalable power distribution system, ultimately contributing to the success of the warehouse’s expansion.
