Electrical Planning Reports
WHAT WE OFFER
At Ingenious Electric Ltd., we help strata corporations and property managers meet evolving electrical requirements through comprehensive Electrical Planning Reports (EPRs) and EV-Ready Plans.
The EPR is mandatory under the Strata Property Amendment Act 2023 (Bill 22) for all stratas with five or more lots, ensuring that buildings are equipped to manage current and future electrical demands. It must be completed by December 2026 or 2028 dependent on your zone and location.

- A detailed evaluation of the current electrical system capacity
- Analysis of current and peak demand levels
- Assessment of existing and future anticipated electrical loads (including EV charging)
- Professional recommendations for managing demand and increasing capacity efficiently
Each report is prepared by qualified professional engineers and certified technologists, ensuring accuracy, reliability, and adherence to all Strata Property Act standards and provincial regulations.
Compliance Requirements and Applicability

- High-rise apartment buildings
- Townhouse complexes
- Bare land strata
- Industrial and commercial strata properties
- Leasehold strata
- Recreational strata corporations
EPRs are a one-time assessment that must:
- Be maintained as part of the strata corporation’s official records
- Be attached to the Form B Information Certificate, similar to a Depreciation Report
- Cannot be waived or exempted by a ¾ vote
