How Do Industrial Electricians Improve Efficiency?

Industrial electricians enhance operations by implementing advanced electrical solutions designed specifically for demanding industrial environments. To maintain efficiency and safety, we install wiring, energy-efficient components, and automation systems that optimize energy usage.

During inspections, we conduct a power quality analysis to detect and resolve issues that could disrupt production. Our services also include load balancing to prevent equipment downtime, as well as the integration of advanced monitoring systems to track energy consumption and machinery performance.

When Should You Contact an Emergency Electrician?

Immediate action is necessary in industrial environments when electrical issues threaten safety, productivity, or equipment integrity.

Here are examples of electrical emergencies that require the expertise of our electricians:

• Equipment power failures
• Electrical fires or smoke
• Frequent breaker tripping
• Damaged or exposed wires
• Overheating transformers or switchgear
• Voltage fluctuations
• Unexplained power outages

What Causes Frequent Breaker Tripping?

Frequent breaker tripping is a sign that your electrical system is under stress.

A common cause is overloaded circuits, where too many devices draw power simultaneously, leading to excessive current flow. Short circuits, resulting from damaged wiring or loose connections, can also trip the breaker to prevent electrical fires.

Ground faults, which occur when electricity escapes to the ground unexpectedly, are another common culprit. Additionally, using appliances with damaged cords or malfunctioning equipment can overload or short out the circuit.

If your breaker frequently trips, it’s essential to address the underlying issue promptly to ensure safety and prevent potential damage to your electrical system.

Following the inspection, our electricians deliver detailed reports with actionable recommendations to improve system reliability.

When Is an Electrical Inspection Required?

Electrical inspections are required in several situations to ensure system safety and efficiency.

New installations or significant modifications, such as adding heavy machinery or expanding facilities, mandate inspections to verify compliance with local codes and standards. Inspections are also necessary when equipment malfunctions to pinpoint the cause.

Additionally, periodic inspections are highly encouraged for high-risk environments like chemical plants or facilities operating 24/7, where wear and tear can pose serious safety risks.

Routine inspections are typically scheduled annually or biannually as part of preventive maintenance programs.

Quality Electrical Wiring Services

Our industrial electrical wiring services include installing, repairing, and upgrading wiring and control systems. Our electricians ensure safety and efficiency through precise conduit routing, cable labeling, and strict adherence to electrical safety standards.

We perform load calculations and plan power distribution to ensure systems can handle current and future electrical demands.

When Should You Update Electrical Wiring?

Electrical wiring in industrial facilities should be updated under specific conditions to maintain safety and functionality.

Outdated systems, such as aluminum or cloth-insulated wiring, are prone to overheating and require immediate replacement. Although these materials have been largely phased out and replaced with copper in Ontario, they may still be present in some buildings.

Frequent voltage drops, circuit overloads, or unexplained power outages indicate that the current wiring is insufficient for the facility’s electrical load and should be replaced. Additionally, facilities undergoing automation upgrades or integrating modern equipment should also update wiring to handle increased power demands and ensure compatibility.

Generally, wiring older than 25 years should be inspected and replaced if necessary to meet current safety standards.
