80% of a modern building's cables — one specialist trade
Low voltage cabling is any wiring carrying less than 50 V — data, voice, CCTV, access control, intercom, fire alarm, nurse call and audio-visual. It's a separate trade from mains electrical: most Auckland commercial buildings are now 80% low-voltage by cable count, outweighing the lighting and power cabling in any modern fitout.
Cabling For U is a specialist low-voltage contractor — we install the whole stack on one job, coordinate with the electrician and main contractor, and hand over one documented, certified system.
- One accountable contractor — data, CCTV, access, AV and intercom on one quote.
- 30–40% cheaper bundled — shared trays, one mobilisation, one comms cabinet.
- Trade-coordinated — we attend site meetings and work in with electrical and fit-out.
- Certified handover — Fluke reports, as-builts, cable schedules and warranty pack.
Who should install your low-voltage cabling?
Three ways Auckland fitouts get wired — and why a specialist low-voltage contractor is usually the cleanest and cheapest.
Four separate contractors
A specialist per system. Four quotes, four mobilisations, four cable trays' worth of coordination — and on handover day, the data guy blames the AV guy.
- Cost
- $$$ — highest
- Accountability
- Split four ways
- Handover
- Four doc packs
One low-voltage contractor
Every sub-50V cable on one quote, one install programme, one comms cabinet and one accountable installer. Shared trays and a single mobilisation save 30–40%.
- Cost
- $$ — 30–40% less
- Accountability
- One contractor
- Handover
- One certified pack
The electrician does it
Low voltage is a separate trade from mains electrical — a general electrician isn't a network cabler. Untested data, no Fluke reports, and no one owns the comms cabinet.
- Cost
- $$ — looks cheap
- Accountability
- Not their trade
- Handover
- Rarely certified

"Booked a full Cat6 fit-out for our new office. Turned up when they said, cabling is immaculate behind the rack, and every port was labelled and tested. The Fluke report made our IT company's job easy."
"We run a busy café and needed POS, WiFi and cameras all on one system. Cabling For U handled the lot — one contractor, no finger-pointing. Coverage is rock solid now, even at the back of house."
"Our fitout had data, cameras, door access and boardroom AV across two floors. One quote, one crew, one handover folder — and when the fire certifier asked for cable routes, it was all documented."
