electrical services engineering
Every building runs on its electrical systems, and getting them right takes more than wiring.
It takes engineering. SBE designs and installs the complete electrical infrastructure behind commercial and industrial buildings across Ireland, from the incoming supply to the last light fitting, with our own team of electrical engineers behind every project.
With more than 40 years of experience, we take on the full electrical scope so you deal with one accountable partner rather than a chain of separate firms. We design it, we value engineer it, we install it, and we hand it over tested and ready to work.
What we deliver
Electrical services engineering covers the systems that power, light, and protect a building. We design and install all of it as one coordinated package.
Power distribution and containment.
LV distribution, switchgear, distribution boards, and cable management, sized and installed for the building’s demands today and its growth tomorrow.
Lighting and emergency lighting.
Energy-efficient LED lighting and controls throughout, plus the emergency and life-safety lighting that keeps people safe and the building compliant.
Small power and final circuits.
The sockets, connections, and circuits that power everything your people and equipment rely on day to day.
Data and communications infrastructure.
The containment and pathways for structured cabling and comms, coordinated cleanly with your IT team and the other trades.
Standby and resilient power.
Generators, UPS, and backup arrangements so your critical systems stay on even when the mains supply does not.
EV charging and energy efficiency.
EV-ready infrastructure, metering, and controls that cut running costs and keep the building ready for what comes next.
Designed and delivered in-house.
What sets our electrical engineering apart is that the design and the delivery come from the same team. Our in-house electrical engineers design your systems using the latest CAD and BIM technology, working hand in hand with your architects and consultants to produce clean, clash-free, energy-efficient designs.
Because the engineers who design the system are part of the same company that installs it, nothing gets lost in translation between a designer and a contractor. Problems are spotted on the drawing board rather than on site, value engineering happens early where it makes the biggest difference, and the finished installation matches the intent exactly.
Built for your sector.
A hospital, a factory, and a water treatment plant place very different demands on their electrical systems, and we bring specific experience to each. Our electrical services engineering is tailored to the resilience, compliance, and performance your sector requires, whether that is continuity of power in healthcare, robustness in an industrial setting, or efficiency at scale in a distribution centre. You can read more on our sector pages.
A turnkey process, from design to handover.
Every project runs through the same joined-up process, which keeps quality high and surprises low.
Electrical design.
Our engineers design the full system in CAD and BIM, coordinated with your wider project team.
Value engineering.
We refine the design to meet the specification and the budget, drawing on deep technical knowledge and a trusted supply chain.
Project management.
Our project managers keep the work safe, on programme, and coordinated with every other trade on site.
Installation.
Our skilled electricians deliver the installation to the highest standard, safely and on time.
Testing, commissioning and handover.
We test and certify the completed system and hand it over with the documentation you need to operate and maintain it.

What does electrical services engineering include?
It covers the full electrical infrastructure of a building: power distribution and containment, lighting and emergency lighting, small power, data pathways, standby power, and energy-efficient systems, all designed and installed together.
Do you design as well as install?
Yes. We have an in-house team of electrical engineers who design your systems in CAD and BIM, and the same company installs them, so design and delivery stay joined up.
What sectors do you work in?
We deliver electrical engineering across commercial, industrial, residential, water treatment, educational, healthcare, hospitality, and warehousing projects, tailoring each to the sector’s demands.
Can you work with our consultants and main contractor?
Yes. We regularly integrate with Ireland’s leading consultants and main contractors, joining the wider project team from design through to handover.
Do you provide testing, certification, and handover documentation?
Yes. We test and certify every installation and hand it over with the operation and maintenance.
