Electrical Asset
Mapping
Many buildings have electrical systems that have grown over decades — distribution boards nobody can identify, circuits that are hard to trace, documentation that no longer reflects reality. Electrical Asset Mapping fixes that, permanently, in a clear PDF report.
When Buildings Outlive Their Documentation
Most buildings develop their electrical systems over many years — extensions, upgrades, refurbishments, new equipment. Each change makes sense at the time. Over a decade or two, the result is a system nobody fully understands.
Original documentation gets lost. Distribution boards acquire a mix of labels in different hands. Inspection reports reference locations that no longer match the building. Facilities managers inherit systems with no clear picture of what’s where.
Distribution boards are hard to identify
Multiple boards across floors with unclear or inconsistent labelling.
Circuits are difficult to trace
Nobody is certain which breaker controls which area or piece of equipment.
Inspection reports are hard to navigate
EICR findings reference unclear locations, making remedial planning difficult.
Maintenance teams lose time
Fault finding and planned maintenance takes longer than it should.
A single PDF report that documents everything
After an Electrical Asset Mapping survey, every distribution board has a clear reference, every asset is photographed, everything is mapped to your floor plans and the whole system is indexed in an asset register.
How We Carry Out an Asset Mapping Survey
The exact scope depends on the size and complexity of the building. Here’s what a typical survey involves.
Asset Identification
We survey the building and identify every distribution board and consumer unit. Each is assigned a clear, structured reference — a consistent naming system that works across the whole building, whether it has two boards or twenty.
Photographic Documentation
Every electrical asset is clearly photographed. This allows any facilities manager or future contractor to quickly confirm they’re looking at the right board before carrying out any work — without guesswork.
Asset Register Creation
A structured asset register is compiled — the electrical index of the building. For each asset it records the reference, location description, board description and associated documentation. This becomes the master reference for everything electrical in the building.
Site Plan Mapping
Assets are plotted onto the building’s site plans, floor by floor. For large or multi-building sites this visual overview is particularly valuable — at a glance you can see where every distribution board is located.
PDF Report Delivered
Everything is compiled into a comprehensive PDF report — the permanent record for your building. Clear, navigable and ready to be filed, shared with contractors or referenced during future inspections.
What’s in the PDF Report
A single document that becomes the permanent electrical reference for your building.
Does Your Building Need Asset Mapping?
Particularly valuable where buildings are large, old, or where the electrical system has grown over time.
Signs your building could benefit from Asset Mapping:
Combined with an EICR — the Complete Picture
Electrical Asset Mapping can be carried out as a standalone survey or combined with a full Electrical Installation Condition Report. When combined, the result is significantly more useful than either service alone.
