## Electrical services for Vancouver projects

VoltNet supports commercial and residential electrical projects including installations, upgrades, renovations, tenant improvements, buildouts, lighting, panels and related electrical scope. For projects that also need data cabling, cameras, access control, EV charging or smart technology, those systems can be coordinated with the electrical work.

## Commercial electrical work

Commercial spaces often involve several systems at once. Offices, retail spaces, restaurants, clinics and other business locations may require electrical distribution, lighting, power for equipment, data cabling, Wi-Fi infrastructure and security systems. VoltNet is structured to help coordinate those related scopes instead of treating each system as an isolated project.

## Residential electrical work

Residential work can include renovations, lighting, panel-related work, new circuits, EV charger installations and technology upgrades. The appropriate permit and inspection requirements depend on the location and scope of work.

## Electrical permits in Vancouver

The City of Vancouver states that an electrical permit is required for most electrical work, with limited exceptions for certain replacements and minor repairs. The City also states that licensed electrical contractors with the appropriate business licence can apply for electrical permits. Property owners should confirm the requirements that apply to their specific project with the relevant authority.
