Electrical design focused on lifecycle cost, not just code.

KD Electrical (KDE) is the Krahn Group's electrical engineering division, established in 2012. We provide a full range of services from power management and lighting design to life safety and security systems, with a focus on efficiency and sustainability. Our aim goes beyond meeting current safety and operating standards: we design buildings that reduce lifecycle cost through long-term savings.

Approach

We work as an individual electrical consultant or as part of an integrated multidisciplinary team, depending on the project and the client's needs, so all systems are fully coordinated and function as intended. We seek to understand the function of every piece of electrical equipment so we can anticipate gaps in a system design before they become problems on site.
