Case Study: Complete Electrical Fit-Out for Pizza House, Peterborough

Project Overview

Complete Electrical Fit-Out for Pizza House, Peterborough
Creating the Right Restaurant Environment
The lighting installation was designed to support both the practical operation and overall atmosphere of the restaurant.
Different areas of the premises had their own lighting requirements. Customer dining spaces needed to feel warm and inviting, while service areas, walkways and back-of-house spaces required clear and reliable illumination.
Our electricians coordinated the positions of the lighting with the restaurant layout, furniture and interior features to ensure the finished installation complemented the design of the space.
Emergency lighting was also installed to provide suitable illumination along escape routes and support the restaurant’s wider fire safety requirements.
Power Throughout the Restaurant
General power was installed throughout the restaurant to serve tills, point-of-sale equipment, appliances, cleaning equipment and other operational requirements.
Socket outlets and dedicated supplies were positioned around the final layout, helping to minimise visible cables while ensuring power was available where staff needed it.
Careful planning at the early stages of the fit-out helped create a clean finish and reduced the need for electrical alterations once the interior works were complete.
Audio Installation
An audio system was installed throughout the restaurant to provide background music and contribute to the overall customer experience.
The speakers and associated wiring were coordinated with the ceiling, lighting and interior finishes. This allowed the system to deliver consistent sound across the customer areas without distracting from the appearance of the restaurant.
Fire Alarm System
Optimum Electrics also installed the restaurant’s fire alarm system.
Detectors, alarm devices and control equipment were positioned to provide suitable coverage throughout the customer areas, kitchen and back-of-house spaces.
The system was installed and tested as part of the wider electrical package, helping ensure the completed restaurant was ready for safe occupation and day-to-day operation.
Coordinating the Fit-Out
Delivering a complete restaurant fit-out required close coordination with the client, kitchen suppliers, interior contractors and other trades working on the project.
Electrical cabling, lighting positions, kitchen supplies and fire alarm equipment all needed to be installed at the correct stages of the programme.
Our team worked around the wider refurbishment schedule to keep the project moving and protect completed surfaces during the final installation and commissioning stages.
