About us

SI Electrical provide complete electrical solutions and are renowned for our expertise in lighting and controls. In house, we provide a single source for both Electrical Installations and Systems Integration for Lighting and Lighting Controls. With our years of experience we can offer expert advice and guidance from initial concept through to completion.

We are a leading museum lighting and electrical specialist with a wealth of knowledge that comes with years of working in museum environments, both in the UK and on large scale iconic projects internationally. The combined industry experience of our management and site team ensures that no matter the complexity or scale of the project we are well equipped to successfully deliver projects in Museums, but also the complimentary sectors of Heritage, and High-End Fit-Out & Refurbishment.

As well as our experience, key factors in the success of our projects are team collaboration and the trust that comes from the lasting relationships we’ve built with our clients, consultants, designers and suppliers, recognised by the high level of repeat business we maintain.

SI’s reputation for excellence is underpinned by our approach and our passion for what we do.
