Customizing electrical layout of your home is a basic need for any new buyer , the prime reason being that any family which will occupy the new home will have its unique needs of living & hence a furniture layout.
Customizing an electrical layout involves a 3 stage process:
1) Developing a new furniture layout according to your needs
2) Making a new electrical layout or modifying the electrical layout from the developer in case of under construction homes to suit the new furniture layout . A common example being that you may require electrical sockets for TV or Laptops in your rooms at "Correct Location"
3) Checking that the work has happened in similar manner & all changes have been done as per your requirement on site.
In any new home , following are points to remember:
a) Electrical layout cannot be modified every now & then, especially so when these days , conduits are concealed
b) The list of all the electrical points from developer should be checked & then new points can be added or existing electrical points can be modified
c) 5 amphier socket points are suitable for almost all fittings.
15 amphier socket points are required only for Refrigerator, Microwave oven, dishwasher & A.C,
but also check any additional appliances you may have which may require 15 amp
d) Always keep additional sockets in every location
e) Provision for invertor backup wiring needs to be made during modification in case of concealed wiring. Call your invertor vendor at this stage itself
f) Take professional help of an Architect for preparing the new electrical layout & customization as he/ she may help you in better way
