High-rise buildings place unique demands on the availability of a power supply. At the design stage of a thirty storey building, the safety of tenants within that building – whether shops, offices or apartments – is critical.
Balancing the needs of each of these groups of tenants as well as meeting all the local safety standards – will determine the type and quality of service that needs to be guaranteed.
In specifying electrical systems such as a diversely routed cables or automatic transfer systems local to the critical systems, the objective is to maximise availability and minimize risk in the event of fire.
