Design

When we design an electric service system, we approach it with a mix of technical expertise and creative problem-solving. First, we assess the building's electrical needs, considering factors like size, intended use, and potential future expansions. We carefully calculate the required amperage and determine the most suitable voltage for the service. Our designs always prioritize safety, efficiency, and compliance with local electrical codes. We take pride in creating detailed schematics that outline the entire electrical distribution system, from the utility connection to individual circuits. It's crucial that we account for proper grounding, overcurrent protection, and load balancing to ensure a robust and reliable electrical infrastructure.

Installation

Once the design is approved, we move on to the installation phase, which is where our hands-on skills really shine. We begin by coordinating with the utility company to establish the service drop or lateral. Then, we install the service entrance, including the weatherhead, mast, and meter socket. Precision is key as we mount the main service panel and meticulously run conduits and cables throughout the structure. We are always mindful of proper wire sizing and routing to minimize voltage drop and interference. As we work, we continuously verify our progress against the design plans and make any necessary adjustments. There's a great sense of satisfaction in seeing the system come together, knowing that every connection we make contributes to powering someone's home or business.

Maintenance and Repair

Maintaining and repairing electrical systems is an ongoing responsibility that we take very seriously. Regular inspections are a crucial part of our job, allowing us to identify potential issues before they become major problems. We check for signs of wear, loose connections, and any abnormalities in the system's performance. When repairs are needed, we approach each task methodically, first diagnosing the issue through careful testing and observation. Whether we are replacing a faulty breaker, rewiring a circuit, or upgrading an outdated panel, safety is always our top priority. We ensure the power is properly disconnected before starting any work and meticulously follow all safety protocols. It's rewarding to restore functionality to a system, knowing that our work helps keep people safe and their electrical systems running smoothly.
