Technology Committee - Low Voltage Residential Wiring
| Technology | The Dream | Fibre Technology | Fiopt | Low Voltage Wiring | Connected Community | FTTH Survey |

In October 2009, the Technology Committee of the Olds Institute hosted an educational session on recommended Minimum Residential Wiring Standards. The information session was presented by John Graham, CLGM, President, eCom Services Ltd.

In the spring of 2009, OICRD developed specifications for a Residential "Low Voltage" Construction Standard. These specifications were prepared exclusively for use by persons involved in the construction of homes within the Town of Olds community. The specifications were developed using all reasonably available information with the goal of providing a minimum platform for the delivery of voice, data, and video services. However, telecommunication service definitions have undergone rapid change in the past and are expected to continue to do so. It is for this reason the Institute invited people involved in the construction of homes in the Town of Olds community to review these specifications.

The recommended minimum residential wiring standards document covers, for the most part, the low voltage requirements for the in-home network and security/alarm systems. It is expected that later in 2009, additional in-home design recommendations may be added to the document to support the opportunities resulting from the efforts OICRD is undertaking to support its Intelligent Community initiatives.

If you have questions or comments about these recommended wiring standards for the Town of Olds, please contact Chairman Joe Gustafson at technology@oldsinstitute.com.
