Power.
Capacity.
Resilience.
Electrical engineering consultancy, specialising in power distribution and data centres. We advise on grid supply and power distribution strategy, and carry out feasibility studies, site surveys, upgrade design and power system studies, from 1 MVA upwards.

[01] / ServicesWhat we do
Focused scope. Clear advice.
Clearly scoped appointments for data centres and other sites where power, capacity and resilience matter. Where there are options, we set them out side by side. Appoint us for a single survey, study, design or strategy.
Power Distribution Strategy
HV and LV strategy, single line diagrams, resilience, and plant and cable sizing.
Feasibility & Capacity
Can the site take more load? Options, constraints and a recommended route, with cooling and heat rejection input from our mechanical partner.
Site Surveys & Reports
Records review, as-built verification, condition reports and resilience checks on existing installations.
Upgrade Design
Power for UPS, generator, switchgear and chiller upgrades: new supplies, cable routes and containment, phased around continuous operation.
Power System Studies
Load flow, short-circuit, arc flash studies and labels, and harmonics, on new designs and as-built systems, modelled in ETAP.
[02] / ProcessHow we work
A clear route, appointed stage by stage.
Survey
We review the records and inspect the site, so you know what you have and how it actually performs.
OutcomeA survey report that establishes where the site stands today and, more importantly, where it can go next.
Feasibility
We test capacity, constraints and options, then recommend a practical route forward, with programme advice.
OutcomeA feasibility report setting out the options, a clear recommendation and the programme.
Strategy & brief
On the client side, we set the electrical strategy, write the brief and Employer’s Requirements, design upgrade works such as cable routes and containment, and review designers’ proposals.
OutcomeA written strategy and brief that designers and contractors can price and develop.
Delivery
We issue clear, checked documents your team can act on.
OutcomeSchematics, reports, study output reports and designs.
Each stage can be appointed on its own.
[03] / Due diligenceBuying a site
Buying a site? Know the power first.
Before you commit, we establish how much power a site really has, what it will take to get more, and what that means for your offer. Recent work includes data centre sites in London, Surrey and Berlin.
01
Available capacity
What the existing supply and the local network can actually deliver.
02
Upgrade route
What the DNO is likely to require, and how long it will take.
03
Existing plant
The condition and remaining life of the infrastructure you would inherit.
04
Risk and programme
The technical risks and timescales that should shape your offer.
[04] / ExperienceAt every scale

[05] / AboutWho you work with
You work directly with the engineer.
Mousa Consultancy is led by Matthew Mousa, an electrical design consultant with more than 24 years’ experience in power distribution, on data centres and other projects across the UK, Europe and the Middle East.
His work covers grid supply planning and DNO applications, power distribution strategy, feasibility and power system studies, on sites from 1 MVA to campuses above 100 MVA.
Mechanical input, such as cooling and heat rejection, comes from an experienced data centre mechanical engineer, so you receive coordinated M&E advice through a single appointment.
