ELV, Low-Current and ICT Design for Netherlands Projects

ASDV Consultant provides remote ELV and ICT design support for architects, installation advisers, MEP consultants, developers and contractors working on Netherlands projects. The topics below summarise the main design areas. Requirements depend on the building use, the adopted codes and the competent authority, so confirm them at the project stage.

ELV and low-current systems design

ELV (extra-low voltage) and low-current systems, known in Dutch as zwakstroominstallaties, cover communication, security and control systems that are coordinated with architecture and the electrical and mechanical design. See our services or discuss a commercial project.

Structured cabling and ICT infrastructure

Structured cabling design (ontwerp gestructureerde bekabeling) fixes topology, telecom rooms, pathways and labelling before fit-out. Our data centre article covers phasing the ELV layer for data centres.

CCTV, access control and electronic security

Security design covers camera coverage, access control, door schedules and integration. Read GDPR-ready CCTV design in the Netherlands for purpose, retention and access considerations.

Fire alarm and public address / voice alarm

Fire alarm and public address / voice alarm (PA/VA) are separate systems that must be coordinated. Their requirements are set by building use and the competent authority, not assumed from a single standard.

Revit BIM and AutoCAD drafting support

Outsourced BIM and CAD drafting can help installation advisers manage drawings, revisions and model coordination. Agree model ownership, naming and revision control up front. Send your drawing requirements.

Outsourced ELV and remote ICT design support

Remote design support adds capacity for defined tasks. The appointed consultant keeps its contractual and professional responsibilities.
