ElectricityCapita Symonds offers a full suite of Design Engineering and Consultancy Services for most aspects of UK electricity infrastructures.

We deliver a full range of services from detailed design of substations, HV & LV distribution, energy metres, CHP systems, export to grid, through to design of internal building services and associated systems. We also specialise in the detailed design of cable tunnels, including structural, civil and geotechnical engineering in addition to electrical engineering at all voltages. This is further supported by our design of M&E systems such as ventilation, lighting, drainage and pumping plant, fire and gas detection, and HV & LV power supplies, including standby generation and UPS. //

Energy Centre for UK’s Largest Exhibition Centre Capita Symonds provided services for a new energy centre and infrastructure development for the largest exhibition centre in the UK – ExCeL London. This included design of standby power generation, combined heat & power (CHP), district heating & chilled water production, HV/LV distribution, small power and lighting, fire alarm system, access control, CCTV, security systems and comprehensive generator control systems. Capita Symonds was responsible for the design and specification of all work packages, including mechanical, electrical and structural engineering. The role also included the management of architectural support and CDM compliance and site engineering support staff for the contract works and complex commissioning activities.

University of Bath Electrical Infrastructure Capita Symonds was selected by University of Bath to provide building services design and project management services for the replanning and reinforcement of primary infrastructure services across the site to accommodate site development proposals. A full assessment of the existing site electrical infrastructure and option analysis demonstrated potential for significantly increased electrical loads. The adopted proposal enabled the reconfiguration of the 11KV electrical infrastructure into two ring main systems, reconfiguration of main incoming substation and provision of a number of substations on the site to cater for proposed developments. Utility incoming supplies were upgraded and provision made in the scheme to allow future utility upgrading of main substation to a primary substation. Provision of complete IT infrastructure ducting and containment systems for the future cabling provisions was also part of this scheme.

Airedale Hospital Electrical Infrastructure Replacement The existing electrical infrastructure at Airedale Hospital is over 40 years old and the electrical load has increased to a point where system resilience and ability to accept additional electrical load is now affected. Capita Symonds’ building services division was appointed by the award-winning Airedale NHS Trust to assist in the replacement of the existing electrical infrastructure thus enabling future expansion at the hospital. The existing HV/LV power distribution system and emergency generation plant is being replaced in its entirety; space limitations of existing plant accommodation prevent implementation of improved resilience measures and the ability to conduct modifications without isolating electrical supplies to patient areas including Category 3 and 4 clinical risk areas. The new infrastructure will include a central energy centre to house 4no. synchronised generator sets to ensure standby electrical supply to all areas of the hospital during mains failure.
