We were commissioned to design and deliver a remote monitoring solution within a high-rise office building in central London. The brief was to provide accurate monitoring of standard load and power consumption across multiple power and lighting distribution boards located on several floors of the building, while ensuring minimal disruption to day-to-day operations.

The proposed solution involved the installation of quad load and energy consumption meters, each housed within a standalone consumer unit. Split-core current transformers (C.Ts) were fitted to allow each individual distribution board to be monitored without the need for power interruption. All meters were daisy-chained together and connected to a dedicated Gateway, enabling secure remote access to live and historical data via a cloud-based platform. This element of the system was delivered in collaboration with our partners at GO-Monitor, providing the client with reliable remote visibility and ongoing performance insights.

In addition to the distribution board monitoring, we supplied and installed an Acuvim Type A Class Power Quality Analyser within the main LV switchboard. This device was configured to monitor overall power quality, capturing key parameters such as voltage, current, harmonics, and power factor. The analyser was supported by its own dedicated Gateway to ensure uninterrupted data transmission and independent remote access.

All installation works were carried out by two engineers over the course of one week. The project was completed efficiently and safely, with no interruption to the building’s electrical supply or disruption to site operations.
