Electrical audit of office buildings / oil installations is a safety concept. It is an exercise to foresee and predict the error prone zones in the electrical system or equipment, which may creep in during operations, maintenance of the electrical system in the building. An electrical audit identifies and analyses problems/deficiencies which may creep in the equipment/system while running the system for a long period. An audit report, thus made taking care of all such factors and making specific recommendations, serves as a check list for the purpose of implementation of recommendation and eradication of all susceptible short-comings to the extent of improving safety in the Electrical System.
