With the continuous development of China's economy and society, the electrical design and construction of residential buildings are also making progress. In addition to following the design specifications, electrical technology in residential electrical design should also apply new electrical technology. Combined with the needs of modern social development, it can effectively promote the application of electrical design and electrical technology in residential buildings. This paper will explore the current situation of electrical technology application in residential buildings, the new development of electrical technology and energy saving measures.

The design of residential interior environment is the direct embodiment of residential comfort and an important means to realize the overall conception of residential interior environment design. It is mainly determined by the design of lighting scheme and the selection and design of lighting fixtures, and the overall function is achieved through intelligent wiring system. The decoration effect of the decoration design is implemented through the hardware of the structural specialty, with the corresponding equipment and electrical software facilities, so that the things that make the building lifeless become comfortable and full of personality. Building electricity, based on the theory and technology of modern electrotechnics and electronics, creates and improves and reasonably maintains the environment of electricity, light, heat and sound inside and outside buildings, and also provides conditions for people to live better. In engineering, building electricity has been extended and developed in architectural decoration.
