DC electrical wiring offers greater efficiency for long-distance power transmission with minimal energy loss compared to AC systems. It also provides simpler control for devices like batteries, solar panels, and electric vehicles, making it ideal for renewable energy and low-voltage applications.
Easier Backup Power Options Powering an entire building on backup batteries is highly expensive. However, with selective DC wiring, we can reduce this cost significantly meaning your tenants can stay online even when the power goes out at little cost to you.
Investment Tax Credits (ITC) MDU developments can qualify for the Investment Tax Credit (ITC), helping offset upfront costs of renewable energy systems and boosting long-term profitability.
Extended Lifespan of Lighting Fixtures LED fixtures last 2.5 times longer when powered by DC because it eliminates the rapid deterioration of AC-to-DC conversion drivers. This reduces maintenance costs.
Centralized Maintenance DC systems move failure points (like drivers) from hard-to-reach locations (e.g., ceilings) to centralized panels, making maintenance easier and more cost-effective.
Efficient Power Distribution Technologies like Class 4 power enable DC to travel long distances on small wires, providing a safe and efficient way to power large facilities.
