Safety & Efficiency

Our electricians will promote energy saving card switches to assist in the control of the electricity usage in commercial premises and residential properties that occupy many people.

Energy saving card switches are often used in hotels, student accommodation and other residential applications, giving control of lighting and other appliances to the users of the property. Our electricians will confirm that the switch is a simple and effective way of avoiding abuse or inadvertent use of energy and may increase safety by ensuring appliances are not switched on.

Not only will energy saving card switches reduce energy consumption and therefore costs but they will also produce a quick return on your investment.

To maximise the efficiency of your energy consumption, see other Energy Saving Electrical Installations provided by our electricians.

Hotel Access Control

Many of us have stayed in hotels where they now have card access to rooms, as it provides security and energy saving advantages. Electricians and electrical contractors like Mr Electric will explain these benefits and an array of other benefits to the customer. The energy saving card switch will be programmed for the duration of the guests stay and more often than not they won’t require ongoing servicing from our electricians.

There won’t be anymore lost keys or calling the locksmith to change the locks, just a simple installation from a Mr Electric electrician. If the guest decides to walk off without checking out, the swipe card automatically stops working after the term of stay has finished.

Universities and Residential Blocks Access Control

Energy saving card switches, installed by qualified electricians are suitable systems for universities, nursing accommodation and other residential blocks. Our electricians will explain the cost advantages of card systems like this. Properties with a large number of doors that require secure access are suitable for an energy saving card switch system.

How They Work

Insert the card, similar to that of a credit card into the reader devise and power is applied to the room in question. Only if this card stays in this place will the room have power. As your electrician will tell you, the power in the room is switched off when the card is removed. The electrician will explain that the card has a robust micro-switch which provides good reliability. Energy saving card switches are available in either mains or low voltage versions.

The electrician will fit them flush mounted using a single gang socket back box and there are a variety of finishes available.
