ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

In the future, buildings will need a lot of energy to power all the conveniences that we use. Moreover, if we want to have maximum flexibility to adapt the rooms and areas to the ever changing needs we must also adequate the electrical system, for lighting and power. Therefore, to avoid having to make massive modifications to the system, we must foresee the maximum electric power that the building could possibly consume.

It will certainly not be possible to create an electrical system in a room designed for a classroom, an office or a hospital ward. However, if, during the design phase, a margin for development in the electrical system room could be calculated, it would be possible to build a room to hold it, including: general panels, power lines for the various areas, area panel big enough and prepared for future expansion.

The capillary system of electrical wires must easily reach all locations in the building through ample ducts. Obviously, it is necessary to construct an electrical system that could easily be modified with the modification of the size of the classrooms.

The ideal system is a raised floor that allows that allows the ducts to pass under the floor.

In this manner, if the partitions were modified, it would be very easy to readapt the system to new needs without damaging the structure.

With an electrical system control system with a PLC and dedicated network BUS, the following could be supervised:

- verify, in real time, the users in operations, lighting, socket use, fixed electric device use,

- turn on, turn off, forbid access to any user,

- continuously monitor the consumption of a user,

- verify those protection and safety devices for the electrical system function and are efficient.

It will also be able to take advantage of the following features:

- limit energy consumption making the system interact with presence sensors so only the areas being use are lighted,

- perceive abnormal consumption and intervene quickly with corrective action,

- perceive that safety and protection equipment function,

- perceive, in real time, break downs and malfunctions and plan repairs based on priority,

- call for help in case of emergency.
