Sectors
Electrical compliance looks different depending on where you work. A data centre and a school have the same legal obligations but what those obligations mean in practice, how testing is planned, and what good documentation looks like are completely different conversations.
We work across sectors where the stakes are high and the operating constraints are real. Our engineers are experienced in live, complex environments. We understand what it means to test a building that cannot come down.
Data Centres
Data centres operate continuously with no tolerance for unplanned outages. Testing and inspection programmes have to work around redundancy architecture. We design programmes around your operational requirements and work within your processes, working in phases to keep live infrastructure running. Thermal imaging is particularly valuable in these environments: elevated temperatures at cable terminations, busbar connections and distribution equipment indicate developing faults before they become a service-affecting failure.
Financial Institutions & Banks
Banks and financial institutions operate under rigorous operational resilience requirements. Trading floors and dealing rooms cannot be taken offline during market hours, and access for contractors is subject to security clearance and strict protocols. We are experienced working within these constraints: coordinating access, working in managed windows, and producing documentation that meets the requirements of internal audit and external regulators.
Research Laboratories
Research laboratories present specific electrical compliance challenges: specialist equipment with uninterrupted power requirements, cleanroom environments with controlled access, and refrigeration systems where a power interruption can compromise months of work. We coordinate closely with facilities teams before any work begins, plan around critical systems, and carry out testing with minimal disruption to live research.
Heritage Buildings
Mixed-era installations are common in historic buildings, and wiring runs can be undocumented or only partially recorded. Buildings that have changed use or ownership over time often carry legacy circuits that were never properly decommissioned or documented, meaning that what’s on the record is not always what’s actually there. We have extensive experience surveying heritage buildings, including environments with significant cultural or conservation constraints.
Corporate Offices
Commercial occupiers, landlords and public sector estates teams often manage compliance across multiple buildings, with obligations triggered by lease renewals, tenancy changes and insurance requirements. We carry out EICR, PAT testing, emergency lighting and fire alarm testing for single sites and portfolios, and work alongside principal contractors on fit-out and refurbishment.
Industrial Facilities
Warehousing and manufacturing environments introduce additional variables: heavy plant, potentially hazardous working areas, and the operational cost of downtime. We carry out the full range of compliance and installation services for industrial facilities, working around your production schedules.
Schools and Universities
Schools, colleges and universities run compliance programmes around the academic calendar, with most testing and installation work carried out during holiday periods. We carry out the full range of compliance services for schools, colleges and universities. For schools and colleges applying for EV charging through the OZEV grant scheme, we manage the full process from site assessment to installation.

The team is highly responsive, professional, and always friendly. Special thanks to Steve and Matt, who have consistently gone above and beyond to ensure everything runs smoothly. Their knowledge and expertise are top-notch, and it’s clear they take pride in delivering excellent work. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable and skilled electricians!”
“Prolec didn’t just do what we asked. They found what we didn’t know was there, explained it clearly, and made sure we were properly covered. The level of detail in the EICR, and the floor plans they produced on top of that, is well beyond anything we’d had before.”

The team are reliable and take pride in delivering quality works, which has a huge impact in reflecting the high standards of work expected by my Data Centre clients in their critical environments.”
“I have found the team at Prolec to be very professional in my dealings over the years. Their communication is prompt, and they deliver a great service that meets and often exceeds my expectations. I will continue to use their services and can recommend them to anyone with utmost certainty.”
“We needed a EIRC certificate made for a flat we were interested in purchasing. Steve was able to book it in for the next day. He explained everything clearly and was happy to answer my many questions. Would recommend and use him again in future.”
“We’ve used Prolec for several years now for commercial work and residential (my house). They are knowledgable, a friendly team, explain what they need to do well so we understand the process and time scales for work to be completed. Very happy will continue to use them in the future!”
