Bathroom Electrical Installation in Winchester

Bathroom electrical work requires specialist knowledge and strict compliance with Part P of the Building Regulations. Bathrooms are classified as "special locations" under BS 7671 (the IET Wiring Regulations) because of the increased risk of electric shock in wet environments. Every fitting must meet specific IP (Ingress Protection) ratings depending on which zone it's installed in.

At Orsidaen Electrical Services, we have extensive experience with bathroom electrical installations across Winchester and Hampshire. Whether you're renovating an existing bathroom or fitting out a new one, we'll ensure every element is safe, compliant, and looks great.

Our bathroom electrical services include IP-rated downlight installation (IP65 for zones above baths and showers), illuminated bathroom mirror wiring, extractor fan installation and wiring (including humidity-sensing models), heated towel rail installation and connection, shaver socket installation (transformer-isolated to BS EN 61558), underfloor heating electrical connections, bathroom-safe pull-cord switch installation, and SELV (Separated Extra-Low Voltage) lighting for wet zones.

We understand the bathroom zone system inside out. Zone 0 (inside the bath or shower), Zone 1 (above the bath to 2.25m), and Zone 2 (extending 0.6m beyond Zone 1) each have specific requirements for IP ratings and voltage. We'll advise you on exactly what can go where, ensuring your bathroom is both beautiful and safe.

All bathroom electrical work is notifiable under Part P and requires either a registered competent person (like an NICEIC-approved contractor) or Building Control sign-off. As an NICEIC Approved Contractor, we can self-certify all bathroom electrical work, saving you time and the cost of a separate Building Control application.
