Electrical Planning for Your New Build
Good electrical planning starts before the walls and ceilings are closed.
During the planning stage, we'll consider the layout of the property and how each space will be used.
For example, you may want to consider:
-
Where furniture and televisions will be positioned
-
How many power points each room requires
-
Kitchen appliance locations
-
Lighting throughout the home
-
Outdoor entertaining areas
-
Home office requirements
-
Data and network connections
-
Future EV charging
-
Smart home technology
-
Heating and cooling requirements
Thinking about these requirements early can help avoid costly changes later in the project.

Lighting is an important part of every new build.
We can install a wide range of lighting options, including:
-
LED downlights
-
Pendant lights
-
Feature lighting
-
LED strip lighting
-

Bathroom lighting
-
Mirror lighting
-
Outdoor lighting
-

We can work with your lighting plans or discuss practical electrical options for different areas of your home.
Power Points & Electrical Outlets
New homes often require more power points than older properties.
We can help plan and install electrical outlets in convenient locations throughout your new build.
This may include power points for:
-
Bedrooms
-
Living areas
-
Kitchens
-
Bathrooms where appropriate
-
Home offices
-
Entertainment units

Garages
-
Outdoor areas
Planning for your current and future electrical needs can help ensure you have convenient access to power throughout the property.
Kitchen Electrical Wiring
Kitchens often have some of the most significant electrical requirements in a home.
We can provide wiring and electrical connections for:
-
Ovens
-
Cooktops
-
Induction cooktops
-
Rangehoods
-
Dishwashers
-
Refrigerators
-
Microwaves
-

Planning the kitchen electrical layout before cabinetry is installed helps ensure connections are positioned correctly.

We can provide electrical installation for suitable bathroom equipment, including:
-
Lighting
-
LED downlights
-
Mirror lighting
-
Extractor fans
-
Heated towel rails
-
Other appropriate electrical equipment
We can coordinate the electrical work with your builder, plumber and bathroom installer.
Smart Home Wiring
A new build is an ideal opportunity to plan for smart home technology.
With walls and ceilings accessible, wiring and electrical infrastructure can be installed before the property is completed.
You may want to consider smart technology for:
-
Lighting
-
Electrical controls
-
Hot water systems
-
Energy monitoring
-
Sensors
-
Heating and cooling
-
EV charging
We can discuss the electrical requirements for your chosen smart home technology and install the appropriate infrastructure.
Data & Network Cabling
Reliable network connections are increasingly important in modern homes.
We can install data cabling and network outlets for:
-
Home offices
-
Television locations
-
Bedrooms
-
Wi-Fi access points
-
Entertainment systems
-
Smart home technology
-
Security systems
Installing cabling during construction can provide a cleaner and more practical solution than adding cables after the property is completed.
EV Charger Infrastructure
If you're considering an electric vehicle now or in the future, planning for EV charging during a new build can be worthwhile.
We can install the electrical infrastructure required for an EV charger, including appropriate wiring and circuits.
Even if you're not installing a charger immediately, preparing the electrical system during construction may make future installation easier.
Outdoor Electrical Wiring
Don't forget to plan the electrical requirements outside your new home.
We can install electrical wiring for:
-
Outdoor lighting
-
Garden lighting
-
Deck and pergola lighting
-
Outdoor power points
-
Garages
-
Sheds
-
Gates where electrical work is required
-
Outdoor entertaining areas
Planning outdoor electrical work during construction can make it easier to install wiring discreetly.
New Build Switchboard Installation
The switchboard is the central point of your property's electrical system.
For a new build, we can install and configure a switchboard to support the electrical circuits required throughout the property.
This includes providing appropriate circuits and protection for lighting, power, appliances and other electrical equipment.
We can also consider future electrical requirements when planning the switchboard, such as EV charging, additional equipment or smart electrical controls.
Working With Builders & Other Trades
New builds involve multiple trades working together at different stages.
James Smith Electrical works with builders, project managers, plumbers, HVAC contractors, kitchen installers and other trades to coordinate electrical work throughout the project.
We can work from building and electrical plans or discuss your requirements during the planning stage.
Clear communication and early planning help ensure electrical work is completed at the appropriate time.
Residential & Commercial New Builds
While many of our new build projects involve homes, we also provide electrical wiring for suitable commercial projects.
Commercial new builds may require more extensive electrical infrastructure depending on the building and how it will be used.
We can assist with:
-
Commercial lighting
-
Power and electrical circuits
-
Data cabling
-
Emergency lighting

Switchboards

Office electrical installations
