Voltage optimisation reduces the voltage of the electricity supplied to your site to the optimal level for your equipment, cutting energy waste, lowering bills, and extending the life of electrical assets.
The UK typically supplies power at 242–244 volts, but most equipment is designed to operate optimally at 220 volts. This excess voltage generates heat, causes wear on motors and lighting, and increases consumption.
Installing a voltage optimisation unit at your incoming supply reduces voltage to efficient levels, potentially cutting electricity use by 8–15% without affecting performance.
Voltage optimisation is most beneficial for sites with motor-driven loads — HVAC, compressors, pumps, refrigeration — and fluorescent lighting. It's particularly effective in manufacturing, cold storage, hospitality, retail, and office environments.
