Electrical contracting for data center projects

We carry out the electrical installations of a data center with our own electricians and site supervision. For data centers we do, among other things, the following electrical works:

Korpisähkö Oy is a Finnish electrical contractor founded in 1974 with its background in electrical contracting and maintenance for buildings. We bring the same expertise to data centers in Uusimaa and Northern Finland: cabling and cable trays, switchboards, grounding, lighting and building services equipment. The work is done by our own permanent electricians under our own site supervision.

Data center electrical works from Korpisähkö

The electrical works of a data center, server hall or colocation facility differ in scale and requirements from ordinary building installations. There are many cable routes, grounding and equipotential bonding must be verified, and every connection is documented. Korpisähkö brings an experienced crew, its own site supervision and an agreed crew size that stays for the whole project.

More than 30 electrical professionals and offices in Espoo and Oulu mean that one company serves data center projects in both Uusimaa and Northern Finland. During operation Korpisähkö can also act as your maintenance partner. Read more about Korpisähkö as a company (in Finnish).

Long employment relationships

A significant share of our electricians have been with the company for more than ten years. Skills and working methods stay on site for the duration of the project.

Documentation and site safety

Commissioning inspections, measurement reports and as-built documentation are part of the delivery. On site we follow the client's safety rules and use the required protective equipment.

Our services for data centers

Low voltage works

Low voltage works cover electrical installations below 1,000 volts: cabling, switchboard and switchgear connections and equipment terminations. In a data center they make up a large share of the installation work, and their quality shows at commissioning and in day-to-day reliability.

Korpisähkö carries out low voltage works with its own electricians under its own site supervision. Installations are inspected and measured, and the client receives the documentation for commissioning.

Cabling and cable trays

We install cable trays, cable ladders and cable routes according to the design, and pull and terminate the cables. Route changes are documented so that the as-built documentation matches the installation.

When needed, we can also assist with high voltage cabling.

Grounding and equipotential bonding

Grounding and equipotential bonding are the foundation of electrical safety and interference protection in a data center. We install grounding, bonding and protective earthing of equipment according to the design and verify them by measurement.

Measurement results are recorded in test reports delivered to the client at commissioning.

Switchboard installation and connections

We install and connect distribution boards, sub-distribution boards and switchgear, including their incoming and outgoing cabling. Connections are labelled and documented, and boards are inspected before energising.

Lighting and emergency lighting

We deliver the lighting of data halls, technical rooms, corridors and outdoor areas as well as emergency and escape route lighting systems according to the design. Lighting controls and circuit groupings are documented as part of the handover package.

Our lighting references include the Nallisport floorball hall and Oulu Cathedral.

Building services and equipment connections

We supply and connect the building services equipment of a data center: cooling units, air handling units, pumps and other machinery supporting the process. The work covers supply cabling, safety switches, control connections and commissioning measurements together with the equipment supplier.

EV charging solutions

We deliver AC and DC charging solutions from design to load management and commissioning, and we help the client set up charging operations. We have delivered charging infrastructure to more than 200 housing companies and properties through our Korpilataus service (website in Finnish).

Snow and ice melting systems

Heating cable systems keep ramps, walkways, roof drains and rainwater systems working through the Nordic winter. We size and install the heating cables with controls so that the system heats only when needed.

Commissioning and documentation

Commissioning inspection, measurement reports and as-built documentation are part of our delivery. Documents are prepared to the client's and the site's requirements so that handover proceeds without open items.
