Installation of low-current networks.
Installation of low-current networks
Unfortunately, in our country, low-current networks are in a somewhat disadvantaged position in relation to other elements of the infrastructure. Let me explain. When a building is being built, it is mandatory to connect it to the water supply, sewerage, and energy networks. A residential building cannot be commissioned without water pipes, sewer risers, heating batteries, and electrical wiring. But few people care about laying low-current networks before it is commissioned (although there are new buildings with Internet in every apartment). And, of course, no one builds office buildings with fire safety systems already installed. As a rule, low-current networks are given the last attention, which is somewhat paradoxical in the era of high technology.
It must be said that working with low-current networks is not an easy thing. It is not without reason that the services of specialized design bureaus are in great demand on the market. Such organizations work with any type of network and at any facilities. What kind of work do they do?
Firstly, design of low-current networks, both at the construction stage and in fully finished premises. It is certainly more difficult to carry out a project for a fully finished premises, “on top” of already laid cables, repairs than for a building under construction. But this work can also be done in such a way that the new cables will be conveniently located and will not spoil the interior (cables are usually hidden in overhead boxes).
Secondly, installation of low-current networks. The work is also not easy. Several nuances should be taken into account during installation. For example, low-current cables cannot be laid near high-current ones. If an order is received for complex equipment of a room (connecting the Internet, telephone, security and fire alarms), it is important not to mix up the cables. Therefore, the installation of low-current networks should always be entrusted only to professionals with extensive experience.
Thirdly, inventory of low-current networks has recently become in demand. The fact is that in large cities there is a large selection of service providers carried out through low-current networks (telephone operators, Internet providers). In addition, for example, when selling an apartment, the new owners may well install a new telephone line, install an alarm system, etc. As a result, the buildings are stuffed with low-current wires, which, a little more, will simply no longer fit in them. The inventory is intended to bring order to this uncontrolled growth of low-current networks.
Low-current networks are extremely important – they connect us with family and friends, allow us to receive information from any corner of the planet, protect us from fire or thieves. And work with them (design, installation) should be entrusted exclusively to professionals.
