High Voltage and Low Voltage Electrical Design
Covol Engineering provides specialist high voltage and low voltage electrical design for industrial and commercial projects. Based in Billingham, Teesside and operating across the UK and globally, our engineers design HV and LV power distribution systems around your site, infrastructure and operational requirements.
Our electrical engineering team supports new installations, upgrades to existing systems and wider electrical infrastructure projects. We consider voltage levels, load requirements, cable sizing, power distribution, protection coordination, energy efficiency and safety standards so each system is designed for reliable operation.
Whether you need high voltage electrical design, low voltage electrical design or support with HV and LV supply, Covol Engineering provides practical engineering solutions that help businesses make informed decisions and maintain safe electrical installations.
Contact Covol Engineering today to discuss your high voltage and low voltage electrical design requirements.
High voltage and low voltage electrical design focuses on creating safe, reliable and efficient electrical systems for commercial and industrial environments. It involves the planning, specification and coordination of electrical equipment, cables, distribution boards, switchgear, transformers, protective devices and power distribution infrastructure.
High voltage electrical design is commonly required where power needs to be distributed across larger sites, high voltage infrastructure or complex operational systems. Low voltage electrical design supports LV systems and LV networks that power day-to-day site operations, including lighting, machinery, building services, security systems and essential equipment.
A well-planned electrical design plays a crucial role in safety, efficiency, compliance and long-term operation. Designs should take account of relevant safety regulations, the Electricity at Work Regulations 1989 and applicable standards such as BS 7671 where relevant.
We also provide independent Electrical Design Verification to ensure your LV and HV designs meet regulatory and technical standards.
High voltage design requires a clear understanding of electrical equipment, safety boundaries, protection systems and compliance requirements. High voltage systems support demanding industrial environments, power plants, substations, transport networks, manufacturing sites and other sites where electrical infrastructure needs to operate reliably.
Covol Engineering provides high voltage electrical design for HV systems that form part of wider power distribution networks. This can include the design and specification of high voltage equipment, power transformers, switchgear, circuit breakers, cables, protection systems and associated infrastructure.
Our engineers consider voltage levels, fault behaviour, power distribution routes, protection coordination and maintenance requirements. The aim is to support safe operation, reduce risk and improve reliability across the system lifecycle.
Low voltage design supports the electrical systems used across most buildings, sites and industrial environments. LV systems power lighting, machinery, building services, security systems, distribution boards and essential equipment used every day.
Covol Engineering provides low voltage electrical design for new installations, upgrades and improvements to existing systems. Our work considers LV networks, distribution routes, cable sizing, wiring, protective devices, circuits, switchgear, transformers and maintenance access.
A good LV design should balance safety, reliability and efficiency. Our engineers review load requirements, voltage levels, power factor, energy consumption, power losses, testing requirements and future operation so the system supports the needs of the site.
HV and LV supply design helps ensure electrical power is distributed safely and efficiently across a site. This includes assessing power requirements, planning the distribution network, selecting suitable equipment and coordinating protection so the system can operate safely.
Covol Engineering designs HV and LV supply arrangements for commercial and industrial applications. Our engineers consider how transformers, switchgear, circuit breakers, cables and distribution boards work together as part of one coordinated electrical design.
Where required, our Power System Analysis service supports accurate fault level and load flow assessments during the design process.
HV and LV electrical systems should be designed as coordinated networks, not isolated pieces of equipment. Each part of the system, from high voltage infrastructure through to low voltage distribution, needs to support the required load, voltage, protection and safety standards.
Covol Engineering takes a practical approach to electrical design. We assess existing systems, review site requirements, consider installation methods and specify equipment that supports safe and efficient operation.
Our engineers also consider how different voltage levels interact across the wider power distribution network. This supports clearer installation planning, maintenance, inspection, testing, energy efficiency and future upgrades.
Covol Engineering provides practical high voltage and low voltage electrical design services for businesses that need reliable, well-coordinated power systems.
Our engineers bring electrical engineering knowledge, power system experience and a clear understanding of commercial and industrial environments. We design solutions that consider the full power distribution network, from high voltage systems through to LV networks, distribution boards, protective devices and end-user equipment.
Whether you are planning new installations, upgrading existing systems or improving your electrical infrastructure, Covol Engineering can help develop a design that supports your operational goals.
Our electrical design process combines rigorous engineering analysis with a practical understanding of operational environments. We use proven engineering processes and detailed site assessments to develop HV and LV designs that meet your project requirements. Our approach includes:
We assess the site, existing systems, electrical infrastructure, load requirements, equipment, historical data and operational needs. This helps identify risks, constraints and design requirements.
We review load flows, voltage levels, power distribution, fault behaviour, energy efficiency and power factor. This helps inform the design and supports reliable operation.
We specify suitable equipment for the application, including transformers, switchgear, circuit breakers, wiring systems, cables, distribution boards and protective devices.
Every design is developed with safety, protection and compliance in mind. We consider protection coordination, safety regulations, relevant standards, maintenance requirements and long-term operation.
We provide clear drawings, documents and reports to support installation, construction, testing, inspection and maintenance. Covol Engineering can also assist with installation, verification and safe energisation of LV and HV systems.
