Unexplained Deaths
Inspection to determine:

Analysis of energy usage
- Plot energy usage over a specific time period in order to determine whether the data identifies unusual, out of character patterns i.e. likely evidencing third party involvement attempting to remove evidence relating to a murder.
Verification of the standard of electrical installation
- Claims made that faulty electrical equipment caused unusual patterns of electrical usage/light switching within a murder crime scene. Inspection and testing confirmed that the standard of electrical installation works were not faulty, as claimed.
Distribution Network Operator (DNO)
- Investigate customer claims of supply problems. Inspection and testing of electrical installation to confirm whether the consumer’s electrical installation(s) require attention or that the DNO supply is fit for purpose.
Dispute Resolution
- Employed by a lighting manufacturer to undertake inspections of lighting installations to determine whether technical anomalies were the result of inadequate light fitting design, or the result of inadequate electrical design and installation of the electrical infrastructure.
