What We Automate in Your Building

We start with the electrical backbone. Panels, circuits, and wiring must follow NEC and NJ Uniform Construction Code (UCC). Then we add smart controls, sensors, and devices that fit how your business works.

Lighting & Occupancy Control

Smart lighting can cut energy waste and make your space look better.

Typical options:

• Wall keypads with scenes (open, meeting, closing, cleaning)
• Occupancy and vacancy sensors in offices and restrooms
• Daylight sensors near windows
• Dimming and color temperature control where needed
• Proper circuits for emergency and egress lighting as codes require

Result: Fewer switches to hunt for. The right lights on at the right time.

HVAC, Comfort & Energy Use

Comfort matters for both staff and customers. Bad controls waste power.

We design:

• Smart thermostats with clear schedules
• Zoned control for different areas
• Setback modes for nights, weekends, and holidays
• Integration with occupancy, so empty rooms aren’t over-conditioned

We wire and protect all controls and power circuits to current code.

Access, Security & Cameras

Security and access systems need clean power and correct wiring.

We can:

• Wire door strikes, maglocks, and card/fob readers
• Provide circuits for camera systems and NVRs
• Coordinate with your security vendor on device layout
• Separate low-voltage cabling from line-voltage safely

Your doors and cameras stay powered and labelled. Your security installer gets a reliable electrical base.

Conference Rooms, AV & Collaboration Spaces

Meetings should start on time, not with 10 minutes of “Why won’t this connect?”

We handle:

• Displays, projectors, and their power circuits
• Ceiling speakers and amps
• Floor boxes and wall plates for inputs
• Touch panels or wall keypads to control lights, shades, and screens

We work with your IT and AV team so the wiring, outlets, and ports match your equipment.

Shades, Blinds & Daylight Management

Motorized shades help with glare and temperature swings.

We provide:

• Power for shade motors and controllers
• Integration with lighting and daylight sensors
• Clean switch or keypad layouts for staff

Shades can move on schedules, scenes, or simple buttons that anyone can use.

Why Choose a Licensed Electrician for Automation in NJ?

Many automation and AV companies focus only on devices. They still need a licensed electrician to handle power, panels, and code.

Code-Compliant Design and Installation

New Jersey uses the NJ UCC, which adopts model codes such as the National Electrical Code (NEC / NFPA 70). That means:

• Correct breaker types and sizes
• Required GFCI and AFCI protection where applicable
• Proper grounding and bonding
• Safe separation of low-voltage and line-voltage systems

Enara Electric designs automation projects, so electrical work passes inspection the first time whenever possible.

Permit Handling & Inspections for Cresskill and Bergen County

Most commercial automation work that adds or changes wiring needs an electrical permit. The local building department reviews and inspects the job.

We work directly with:

• Borough of Cresskill for permits and inspections
• Nearby boroughs such as Tenafly, Demarest, Closter, Englewood, Bergenfield, and others
• Inspectors and officials following Bergen County and state rules

Our team prepares permit applications, schedules inspections, and attends them. You aren’t left guessing about approvals.

Clean Panels, Labeled Circuits & Future-Ready Wiring

Messy panels and unlabeled circuits cause future headaches.

We:

• Reorganize and label panels where needed
• Add subpanels for AV and IT loads when smart
• Provide spare capacity for future growth
• Leave you with updated panel schedules and photos

This makes later changes, tenant fit-outs, or upgrades much easier and safer.

Our Commercial Automation Process

A clear process keeps your project on track and within code.

1. On-Site Walkthrough & Estimate

We visit your property in Cresskill or another Bergen County town.

During the visit we:

• Review your panels and service size
• Walk the spaces you want to automate
• Discuss how you use each area
• Note existing lighting, HVAC, data, and gear

You receive a written estimate that outlines the scope and likely permit needs.

2. Design, Brand Selection & Permits

Next we:

• Design circuits and control layouts
• Coordinate with your IT/AV vendors or recommend trusted partners
• Talk through device brands that fit your budget and goals
• Prepare and submit electrical permit applications under NJ UCC rules

We time the work to match your build-out or renovation schedule.

3. Electrical Rough-In & Panel Work

Once permits are issued, we:

• Run line-voltage and low-voltage wiring
• Install or modify panels and subpanels as required
• Coordinate with PSE&G if a service upgrade or meter work is needed
• Keep work areas tidy so your business can function as much as possible

Safety and code come first. Automation gear only sits on top of a safe base.

4. Device Install, Programming & Testing

We then:

• Mount keypads, thermostats, access devices, AV hardware, and sensors
• Connect everything into controllers and networks
• Program scenes, schedules, and user levels
• Test operation under normal and backup power conditions

We confirm circuits, labeling, and emergency lighting behave as required.

5. Training, Documentation & Ongoing Support

At the end, you get:

• A simple walk-through for your team
• Labelled panel schedules and control diagrams
• Clear contact details if you need changes or support

We also offer return visits and maintenance plans if you want routine checkups.

Typical Projects & Cost Factors

Every building is different, so pricing is based on an on-site review, local permits, and the hardware chosen. Here’s what to expect.

Example Projects

• Single conference room in a Cresskill office: Lighting scenes, display power, AV outlets, simple control pad
• Small retail store in Tenafly: Lighting control, music, basic cameras, door access
• Medical office in Englewood: Zoning for exam rooms and waiting areas, lighting scenes, and secure access

   

   

Cost Drivers

Your quote depends on:

• Size and layout of the space
• New vs existing wiring and panels
• Number of rooms and systems automated
• Brands and features chosen
• Access to ceilings, walls, and existing conduits
• Permit and inspection needs in your town

We explain each cost driver in plain language before work begins.

What Your Quote Includes

A typical commercial automation proposal from Enara Electric may include:

• Labor and materials for electrical and control work
• Panel upgrades or subpanels if required
• Permit fees and inspection coordination
• Device installation and programming
• Basic staff training and documentation

You get a clear scope, so you know what is covered.

NJ Electrical Codes, Permits & Inspections (Plain-English Guide)

Electrical rules can feel confusing. Our job is to deal with them for you.

Key points:

• New Jersey uses the NJ UCC, which incorporates the NEC as the electrical standard.
• Most commercial wiring changes require an electrical permit.
• Town building departments in Cresskill, Tenafly, Demarest, Closter, Englewood, and other Bergen County communities enforce these rules.
• Inspectors must sign off before final occupancy or full use of new systems.

We pull the proper permits, schedule inspections, and stay on site during the visit. If a correction is needed for work we did, we return and fix it.
