Electrical Installations for Wooden Houses
Complete Electrical Installations – Safety and Compliance for Your Home
EcoCasa executes Complete electrical installations for wooden houses and residential buildings, with strict adherence to safety regulations. We design, size, and install all the necessary circuits for a modern home: outlets, lighting, high-power appliances, electrical panels, and protection systems.
We are working with authorized electricians ANRE, who knows the specifics of wood constructions and the special fire protection standards imposed by normative I7/2011. Each installation is designed according to the house plan, the number of circuits required, and the installed power, then executed with certified materials and documented for ISC acceptance.
From initial consultation and electrical design, to installation, commissioning, and delivery of the acceptance file – we manage the entire process. For our turnkey wooden house projects, the electrical installation is included in the full package. We also carry out separate electrical installations for clients who already have the house structure.

Technical note: All work is performed in accordance with I7/2011 (Low Voltage Electrical Installations), using ANRE certified materials. Upon completion, mandatory checks are performed: insulation resistance measurement, RCD verification, ground resistance measurement – all documented in the PRAM report.
How does the execution proceed electrical installations EcoHome
From consultation to commissioning – transparent 5-step process
Stage 1: Consultation and site visit
We will travel to your location (in Bacău or anywhere in Romania for our wooden house projects) to discuss your needs: number of rooms, special features (smart home, alarm, lightning rod), estimated installed power. Initial consultation is free.
Stage 2: Detailed Electrical Project
The design electrician prepares the technical documentation: single-line diagram, layout plan (socket outlets, switches, lighting), voltage drop calculation, cable cross-section sizing, complete materials list. You will receive the approved project, necessary for the ISC authorization.
Stage 3: Installation Execution
Our team installs the system in 2 phases: rough phase (pulling cables, junction boxes, protective conduits) before interior finishes; Final stage (installation of sockets, switches, light fixtures, electrical panel) after plastering and painting. Average duration: 2-4 weeks for a standard house.
Stage 4: Checks and Commissioning
Upon completion of the installation, an authorized electrician performs all mandatory PRAM measurements: cable insulation resistance, RCD operation (30mA test), grounding resistance value (below 10Ω), and protective conductor continuity. The results are documented in the verification report.
Stage 5: Document Receipt and Delivery
We are handing over the complete file: as-built electrical project, PRAM report, material conformity certificates, signed acceptance protocol. With these documents, the house can be accepted by the City Hall and ISC without any issues. We offer a warranty according to the contract for all executed works.
In short: From the first discussion to handing over the keys, we manage the entire process. You don't have to chase electricians, buy materials, or deal with ISC documentation – we'll handle it all.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do you only do electrical installations, or only for houses built by you?
We offer both options. For clients building a wooden house with EcoCasa, the electrical installation is included in the complete turnkey package. We also perform separate electrical installations for clients who already have the house structure (regardless of who built it) and require certified electricians for the installation part. Contact us for a personalized quote.
In what areas do you perform electrical installations?
We carry out electrical installations throughout Romania, with priority for our wooden house projects. The team of electricians travels anywhere in the country. For remote projects, we ensure the same quality of execution and complete documentation as for local work in Bacău. The cost of travel is calculated based on distance.
How long does it take to install the electrical system for a house?
The duration depends on the size of the house and the complexity of the installation. For a standard house of 100-150 sqm, the execution takes an average of 2-4 weeks, divided into 2 phases: rough-in phase (laying cables, conduits, junction boxes) before plastering, approximately 1-2 weeks; final phase (installing outlets, switches, electrical panel, light fixtures) after finishing, approximately 1-2 weeks. For larger houses or those with complex systems (smart home, lightning rod, photovoltaic), the duration increases accordingly.
What warranty do you offer for the electrical installation?
We offer a 2-year warranty on installation work according to the Civil Code, during which we will repair any defect caused by improper execution free of charge. The materials used (cables, sockets, switches, electrical panel) come with their own manufacturer warranties (2-10 years depending on the product). The warranty does not cover defects caused by network power surges, improper use, or unauthorized modifications to the installation by third parties.
What documents do I receive upon completion of the electrical installation?
Upon completion, you will receive the complete file required for ISC reception: the as-built electrical project (actual execution diagrams), the PRAM report (insulation resistance measurements, grounding, RCD test), conformity certificates for all materials used, a reception certificate signed by an authorized electrician, and user and maintenance instructions. With these documents, your house can be registered by the city hall and obtain its operating permit without issues.
Do you also offer modern solutions - smart home, automation, photovoltaics?
Yes, we adapt the installation to your needs. We offer: LED lighting with dimmers and predefined scenes, sockets with integrated USB, smart switches (app control), automation systems (lights, blinds, air conditioning via Wi-Fi/Zigbee), on-grid or hybrid photovoltaic systems with inverter and storage, electric car charging stations (wallbox). All solutions are integrated from the design phase for a clean and efficient implementation.
How does the electrical installation in a wooden house differ from one made of concrete or brick?
The electrical installation in a wooden house follows the same standards (I7/2011), but with increased fire protection requirements, as wood is a combustible material. The main differences are:
- FRHF (Flame Retardant Halogen Free) protection tubes are mandatory – not standard PVC.
- Cables with flame-retardant insulation, type NHXH or N2XH, on critical routes.
- Minimum distance of 5 cm between unshielded cables and the wood surface.
- Special anchor bolts for timber-frame walls (not for concrete).
- Recommendation for AFDD (Arc Fault Detection Device) circuit breakers for fire prevention.
- Pass through I-Joists only in structurally validated areas.
