Sustainability is a main thought in the developmental agendas, especially while stressing infrastructure development. In infrastructure development, energy efficiency and resource utilization are two important aspects that play vital roles in innovating with environment-friendly ideas. Hence, technology is constantly advancing itself towards sustainable development. Low voltage technology is such an important footstep in the evolution of sustainable development.

The electrical and electronics system is essential in providing digital and other sophisticated technologies in a physical infrastructure. These technologies make life easier and bring liveliness to the infrastructure. The conventional electrical system uses massive devices and high-energy connections. These high-energy or high-voltage systems increase energy consumption as well as power loss in various components of the system, like cables, metals, windings, and insulators. Such disadvantages of conventional high voltage systems made the engineers and scientists think innovative which leads to the development of low voltage technology for the use of the same in infrastructure. The low-voltage solutions have less energy consumption, making them a perfect choice for networking. Low energy consumption and energy efficiency are essential contributions towards environmental protection as all the countries in the world are struggling to generate sufficient energy to maintain their industrial and service sectors and to boost the national economy. Hence, nowadays, these low-voltage solutions are playing pivotal roles in improving the sustainability of infrastructure and economic development by reducing harm to the environment.

Low voltage solutions, compared to widely used high voltage systems, have many advantages, such as high efficiency, less maintenance cost, low energy consumption, optimal resource utilization, and environment-friendly applications. These technologies are largely being used to set up cost and environment-friendly, energy-efficient, and safe infrastructure.

The energy efficiency of low-voltage solutions is the central aspect of helping to develop sustainable infrastructure. Low voltage cabling is one of the components of low voltage solutions that supports data transmission using less energy than traditional systems. This can also be helpful in efficient power transmission. Efficient cabling plays a vital role in reducing both environmental impact and electricity costs.

Low voltage systems also have importance in setting up building automation systems that employ low voltage technologies and equipment. The building automation system ensures the safety of electrical systems in a building. It has a pivotal role in enhancing sustainability. The system reduces energy use and, hence, is a way of protecting the environment. The reduced cost of the system and better indoor air quality are other two aspects that contribute towards sustainability.

The networking, telecommunication and security systems in a building use low voltage technologies that help to enhance comfort and convenience in building management. In addition to the advantage of using less amount of energy in low voltage solutions, the system has easy maintenance and energy loss.

The electronics equipment that is used in low voltage systems and networking has an important role in terms of material utilization, which helps in the environment protection and optimum utilization of resources. The term Green Electronics has been derived from these possibilities of sustainable development. The cables and devices in the electronics system can help enhance sustainability in infrastructure development.

Sustainable development choices are always focal points in the present world as it struggles to overcome challenges such as low energy efficiency and poor resource utilization. The development of low voltage technologies is an essential footstep towards environmental sustainability in infrastructure by making the system energy efficient and cost-effective.
