Electrical Engineering across Virginia
Electrical design in Virginia coordinates with the serving electric utility for service, metering, and available fault current, and documents lighting and controls to ASHRAE 90.1. Humid summers and cold snaps shapes service sizing and equipment selection, and every commercial set is sealed by a Virginia-licensed PE.
Engineering practice in Virginia is regulated by the Board for Architects, Professional Engineers, Land Surveyors, Certified Interior Designers and Landscape Architects (APELSCIDLA). PEs must be licensed by the board and firms need proper business authorization. Sealed permit drawings require a Virginia-licensed PE.
Virginia enforces the Virginia Energy Conservation Code for commercial construction, based on the International Energy Conservation Code and ASCE/ASHRAE/IES Standard 90.1. It is part of the Virginia Uniform Statewide Building Code enforced by local building officials.
Local building officials enforce the Virginia Uniform Statewide Building Code, so the base code is consistent across the state. Northern Virginia and Hampton Roads jurisdictions run sophisticated electronic review; Chesapeake Bay localities add preservation-act review, and historic districts in Richmond, Alexandria, and elsewhere add architectural review boards.
