Advice from other buyer(s)

  1. Need to engage a licensed electrical engineer, provide your office layout design, lighting, power points, data, telephone points layout. Check electrical meter’s incoming ampere, whether it is 3 phase or single phase. For electrical works, you need to work together with the office design layout. Wiring installation is very important, need to follow regulations, different buildings have different requirements too. Check for the person’s past experience as well. – (Chua Chong Teck, Electrical Project Manager)
