What is voltage optimisation and how does it work?
Voltage optimisation is a technology used to regulate and reduce the voltage level supplied to your electrical devices and equipment to more efficient levels, usually closer to the actual voltage requirements of the equipment — minimising energy wastage and reducing electricity consumption. This not only saves energy but also reduces the strain on electrical components, potentially extending their lifespan by operating them under less stressful conditions.
How long does it take to install a voltage optimisation system and what is involved in the process?
The installation begins with a detailed site survey conducted by our experienced technicians to assess your facility's electrical systems and identify the optimal voltage optimisation solution. Once the appropriate system is selected, our team will integrate it directly into your existing electrical infrastructure, usually at the main electricity supply point to ensure all incoming voltage is optimally managed before distribution. Our certified and qualified engineers handle all aspects of the installation with minimal disruption to your daily operations — usually within one to five 5 business days depending on the size of the unit required.
How can voltage optimisation reduce costs for my business?
Voltage optimisation reduces the amount of electricity drawn from the power supply, directly decreasing energy bills. By operating your electrical devices at lower or optimised voltage levels, the energy consumption of these devices is reduced. And, since the electrical stress on appliances is decreased, this results in fewer breakdowns, less maintenance, and a longer lifespan for the equipment, increasing total cost savings over time.
When should my business consider installing a voltage optimisation system?
You should consider installing a voltage optimisation system if your systems experience high or intensive energy usage, rely heavily on voltage-dependent machinery and appliances, face issues with voltage stability, or experience frequent spikes and drops in voltage. Industries such as manufacturing, hospitality, and retail, where effective energy management provides significant advantages, often find that incorporating voltage optimisation into their energy strategies is beneficial.
