Electrical and home automation systems

The electrical system and home automation

The electrical system is an important technical component in the home and also influences its comfort level. They are complex and comprise multiple compenents and elements and is potentially dangerous. For this reason, the regulations governing its construction and installation are strict and safety-conscious so it is therefore essential not to DIY any work. The system must only be installed by companies that are authorised to do so and registered with the Chamber of Commerce, just as all modifications - even minor ones - must be carried out by authorised personnel. At the end of the project, the contractor must issue a Declaration of Conformity for the work carried out - as we will see below, this is the only way to certify and prove that the circuit is up to standard. 


Electrical installation in a professional manner


The rules governing electrical installations are laid down in standard CEI 64-8 (Italian Electrotechnical Committee) - which came into force on 1 March 1993 - and the V3 variant of the same standard, which came into force in September 2011. Like all installations, this one too must fully comply with Ministry of Economic Development Decree no. 37 of 22 January 2008 (published in the Official Gazette no. 61 of 12-3-2008), which replaced Law 46/1990.


Thermomagnetic switch

A protective device which automatically cuts off the power supply to the installation when it detects a current several times higher than the rated current (due to a short circuit or magnetic trip) or slightly higher than the rated current for a period of time which leads to excessive heating of the conductors (overload, thermal trip).


Concentrated in the electric switchboard

Today, the single switchboard (i.e. the electrical panel of the house, usually located near the entrance) must have a main switch and at least two residual current circuit breakers (known as circuit breakers). The number of lines, on the other hand, depends on the square metreage of the house and the level of installation adopted. 

  • Continue

    In addition to this technical part, i.e. the core, domestic electrical installations consist of:

     - socket points for connecting the various household appliances;

     - thermomagnetic circuit breakers;

     - simple or compound switches to control the light points;

     - an earthing system for the installation as a whole (the earth conductor must be brought inside the switchboard).


Electrical system must be divided into circuits

The standard regulating the electrical installation includes a series of guidelines to guarantee continuity of service. So, in the event of a fault or untimely tripping of the residual current devices, the user is not left in the dark with all their electrical components having failed.

  • Continue

    For example, it is recommended to divide the installation into "light" and "power" and to install a dedicated earth leakage circuit breaker for each line. It is extremely useful to divide the system into at least two residual current circuit breakers and a number of circuit breakers according to the level and square metres of the housing unit.

     - In order to ensure continuity of service following untimely trips, the presence of automatic reclosure devices (SRD) and/or reinforced immunity circuit breakers is also prescribed for the residual current devices.


One rule for everything

Each component of the electrical system must have certain characteristics which also depend on the intended function. It is essential that these specifications are strictly adhered to otherwise the system is neither compliant nor, critically, safe.

  • Continue

    A series of requirements concerning the electrical components and the circuit as a whole are aimed at the optimal operation of the system and in absolute safety:


Earthing

Actions and systems aimed at bringing a metallic element to the same electrical potential as the earth.


Never too much security

Feeling safe and secure in one's own home is a primary requirement for every family. Home automation systems such as video intercoms, burglar alarms and video surveillance systems can detect and manage dangerous situations. Home automation can also be used to keep the house under control, setting up alarms in the event of gas leaks, water leaks, etc., and programming subsequent actions, such as calling your mobile phone or automatically summoning help. 


Standard cables in the electrical system

As far as electrical cables are concerned, the regulatory requirements cover the protective conductor (PE, normally referred to as "earthing cable") which must be yellow-green and the neutral conductor (conductor through which the return current flows) which must be light blue.

  • Continue

    Obviously, the cross-sections must be adequate for the expected currents: normally 6 mm2 is used for the uprights, 2.5 mm2 for the circuits supplying the sockets or fixed appliances such as the air conditioner, and 1.5 mm2 for the light circuits; this is considering that a large appliance can absorb up to 15 A (3 kW), while a light fitting rarely exceeds 2 A (450 W).


Less energy with one click

The use of home automation technologies improves the performance of the home as well as reducing waste, thus enabling users to consume less and more smartly. 

 For example, by automatically adjusting the heating and lighting system according to people's presence in the home and controlling electrical loads on appliances at specific times of day, it is possible to achieve significant savings on utility bills.


When renovating or performing maintenance

1. Check that your system is up to standard. If you do not comply with current legislation (remember that it is the CEI 64-8 standard that regulates domestic electrical systems), the probability of electrical dispersion, shocks, short circuits or even fire increases. To avoid unnecessary risks - which can be really serious - it is important to contact an expert to have the switchboard checked and to assess which mandatory elements are missing: earthing, protections against overcurrent etc.

  • Continue

    2. Is the installation more than 15 years old? It must be replaced.

    After the expert's report, if you find that the installation does not comply with the standards, you must bring it into compliance as quickly as possible and always contact certified professionals. If the system is obsolete (i.e. older than 15 years) or in any case not completely safe then legally, a new one must be built.

    3. Safe, but also functional

    The IEC 64-8 standard goes beyond strict system safety. Compared to previous versions, the recent iteration also introduces minimum performance and functional requirements. In order to receive the Declaration of Conformity, the electrical system must therefore meet all the requirements imposed by this standard.

    4. An inspection every 5 years

    It is essential to have an expert inspection carried out at least every five years. However, one thing that you can do yourself is to periodically check the residual current device by pressing the T button. If it trips and the current is cut off, it means that it is working; otherwise it must be replaced because the system is not protected.

    5. Renovation and retrofitting: reducing costs

    The repair and retrofitting of unsafe systems is eligible for 50% tax relief. This means that you can deduct the costs incurred for such work in individual residential units and in the common areas of condominiums from your personal income tax. The maximum deductible amount for the whole of 2021 is 96,000 euros.


Communication is simple

Whether you are a lover of simplicity or technology, a parent with young children or an elderly person who lives alone, you can easily set up a home automation system using traditional controls, sensors, automatic mechanisms or timings: it's just a matter of choice. Furthermore, your home automation system is already set up to be managed via most modern touch screen devices (tablets and smartphones), via a local Wi-Fi network, or via a remote telephone network.


Value and savings with home automation

According to one estimate, the cost of the electrical system in a new house accounts for 2%. It may be worthwhile then, with an investment of just over 3%, to choose a basic home automation system. Since it is flexible, it can also be extended over time and save money. The correct use of this technology allows a reduction of up to 12% in electricity and up to 26% in heating consumption.

  • Continue

    Home automation is a technology that makes it possible to integrate and manage all the systems in the home in the best possible way. We are used to thinking that it is a costly solution, suitable only for a few: in reality, the advantages that derive from it are numerous, both in terms of comfort and of safety and energy saving. It is also extremely flexible and has low installation costs when compared to the quality of life and of the home itself.

    Home automation equipment can also be managed remotely with smartphones and sometimes tablets.


    The property also benefits

    The certification of the electrical system of homes according to the new 64-8standard will increase the transparency of the offer to the real estate market: thanks to the level of the system, equipment's functionality and efficiency will be explicit and certified.

    This is particularly advantageous for home automation equipment which can then be taken into account when determining the commercial value of the property, which was not the case until recently.


Personalised scenarios

The option of integrating and automatically managing the functions of one's own home simplifies life and increases the well-being of those who live there.

 Through the creation of 'scenarios', each environment becomes customisable: if, for example, the heating, lighting, alarm and door and window motors are integrated with each other in a home automation system, it will be possible to carry out 'centralised locking' at the touch of a button: you can then leave the house safe in the knowledge that all the lights are off, all the doors and windows are closed perfectly, the heating is in economy mode and the alarm is on.

Air conditioning systems

Air conditioning for the home: advice on the best choice to make

An air-conditioning system is very useful inside a house because it allows you to regulate the temperature inside the house, whether it is very hot or very cold outside. A climate control system not only regulates the temperature but also maintains the right level of humidity and filters and purifies the air, improving liveability inside the home. There are various types of system, let's see which one to choose for your home.


Differences between air conditioners and home climate control systems

First of all, we must avoid misunderstandings and use the correct terms.

 Air conditioners only cool the air but do not manage the air exchange, nor do they dehumidify the environment. Home climate control systems recycle air, filter and purify it and are able to dehumidify and, in some cases, heat the environment. Almost all air conditioning products on the market today are climate control systems that cool, heat and dehumidify the environment.


  • Inverter (or on/off) technology

    On-off technology, the classic technology of the first air conditioning systems, works by alternating periods of activation and deactivation of the machine depending on the temperature inside the room. Inverter technology allows continuous and automatic adjustment of the power and operating speed of air conditioners. Which of the two technologies should I choose for an air conditioning system? Inverter technology leads to energy savings of around 40%!

  • Why is it important to change the air conditioner filters?

    It is advisable to clean the filters of an air conditioner or climate control system at least every change of season to ensure the correct impact of the air in the room on the exchanger (split).

    Filters trap dust and if they are not cleaned regularly, a dusty layer is created that hinders the performance of the air conditioner and also compromises the quality of the air emitted. However, the time by which filters should be cleaned is not fixed as dust accumulation can depend on various factors such as whether the air conditioner is used or not and if there is too much dust in the air.

    All air conditioners are equipped with basic filters that are located above the heat exchanger. Their job is to trap dust in the air that settles on this part of the air conditioner.

    In addition to these normal filters, air conditioners are also equipped with electrostatic filters whose function is to keep certain particles such as dust mites or pollen out of the air.

    Active carbon filters are also used to trap unpleasant odours in the air such as cigarette smoke.

  • Air conditioner maintenance

    Air conditioner maintenance is necessary both to guarantee clean air for our environments and to improve energy efficiency.

    Although this operation can be carried out by the uder, it is advisable to rely on professionals with the necessary skills and equipment to deal with the system because - knowing the various components - they are able to assess and identify any problems; it should also be considered that every operation is backed by a service guarantee.

Heating systems

Home heating systems must also comply with European Union standards and must therefore be installed or upgraded according to regulations.

We install state-of-the-art systems using the best brands on the market so that customers can benefit from efficient performance in total safety.


For this reason, the solutions we offer always combine optimal space heating with high energy savings, limiting polluting emissions.

For autonomous heating systems, electronic control and programming mechanisms are installed to allow the user to manage the system independently and efficiently by choosing their desired temperature.

Water systems

The plumbing in your home is a delicate system that needs to be able to carry water from one point to another without any hiccups that, in addition to causing great inconvenience, can cause damage to the interior of the house or neighbouring flats, as well as waste money.


For this reason, you must rely on experts specialised in the sector who can guarantee ad hoc design and installation using the best materials.


We guarantee the best supply and correct wastewater flow for all utilities: sanitation, laundry, kitchen, garden, various irrigation points...

We design and install new plumbing systems and also undertake partial renovations of plumbing and water drainage systems.

Home data networks

In our homes, equipment connected to the Internet is increasingly widespread with the need to distribute data and audio-video signals between PCs (perhaps more than one per home), shared printers, media centres, digital terrestrial and satellite boxes, Nintendo Switch consoles, PS5s, Xboxes, televisions, personal servers and so on. All this makes it necessary to set up a home data network with characteristics of flexibility, reliability and speed equal to, if not sometimes greater than, those used in offices.


For new builds and renovations, it is a good idea to create technological connection points or 'multimedia stations' in the living room, study and bedrooms, etc. - i.e. in the rooms where the equipment that needs to be connected to the Internet or to exchange data is usually used and to connect the rooms accordingly by creating a structured cabling data network infrastructure.


We also install and configure equipment and active parts for cabling and distribution of computer data and audio-video signals, sizing the systems to meet the user's current needs and anticipating future needs with cable and wireless Wi-Fi solutions.
