In home construction or renovation, in addition
to the electrical wiring, and appliances which
use 110V-high voltage-feed there are
several Built-in systems which uses low
voltage feeds and called Low voltage systems.

Low voltage systems for homes include Security
systems-burglar alarms and Surveillance
cameras-Intercoms, Home Audio and Video,
Automation, Lighting and Networking which

• Low voltage systems just like any other built in
  system will be done in two major stages
• Low voltage Systems Rough-in
• Low voltage Systems Installation

1. Low Voltage Systems Rough-in
Low voltage systems rough-in is the necessary
pre-wiring, piping, conduits, boxes, fixtures and
vapor barriers prior to completion of the
insulation and drywall.
10
When is the best time to rough-in a low voltage
system?
The best time to rough-in a low voltage system
is just before the insulation and drywall. The
very first low voltage system to be roughed-in is
the central vacuum. 
11
Considering the amount of piping and the limited
locations for the central vac outlets, its
imperative to be roughed-in before the
electrical. Security systems, Intercoms,
Audio/Video, Automation, lighting and Networking
should be done right after the electrical wiring.
The reason is the electrical wiring being pulled
on top of the low voltage wiring could damage it.
12
2. Low Voltage Systems Installation
Low voltage systems installation is the final
stage of the component and devices set up,
networking and programing.
13
When is the best time to install a low voltage
system?
The best time to install a low voltage system is
typically right after completion of the painting
and preferably prior to completion of the floors.
