With better lighting in the test bays electrical students will have a better training environment
Our team recently went back to college. Unlike their days as apprentices, they weren’t spending time in the test bays this time. Instead, they were busy installing new lighting. 
 
The upgraded test bay area was completed in time for the students' return this term. It will provide an even better learning environment for them. We wish everyone all the best for their studies.

Electric vehicle chargers at home are becoming popular
If you’re thinking about choosing a plug-in hybrid or all-electric car here are some things to think about when you’re considering charging at home. 
 
You will certainly have a convenient and cost-effective way to charge your car which will prove much cheaper than petrol or diesel, especially now we are facing much higher fuel prices. As more people buy electric cars off-road charging for an electric vehicle (EV) could also increase the value of your home
Pathway garden lighting at Brixworth's Millennium Gardens
It’s always good to work locally and we’re really pleased with the results of this lighting project at the Millennium Gardens in Brixworth
 
We installed LED bollard and wall lighting along the garden pathway. It looks good, illuminates the area and creates a safe and inviting environment for visitors to enjoy. 
Outside lighting is important in a warehouse setting
The MSE team likes a challenge. For one of our clients the lack of lighting on this service road was a health and safety concern. 
 
Trailers often parked next to the building so floodlighting mounted directly to the side wall would be blocked. 
 
Our solution was to instal 10 6-metre stanchions with LED floodlight units to project the light over the trailers and cover the road. These provided a perfect spread of light along the service road and staff members were impressed by how much the area and the car park opposite have been improved. 
Electrical upgrades for a charming cottage in Pitsford Northamptonshire
It was a pleasure to help out with electrical upgrades for this pretty little cottage in our neighbouring village of Pitsford. 
 
The work included lighting alterations, power additions, RING cameras and bells and an electrical inspection condition report (EICR). We even hung some mirrors and other fixtures to get everything ready, although that’s not usually part of the service.
