Today, electrical upgrades often include house-wide low voltage wiring in addition to the primary wiring used for lighting and power. These low voltage systems can be installed at the same time to support telephones, internet connections, intercoms, security systems, and smart-home technologies.

One of the most important practices our workers employ is using fall protection equipment to limit falling to no more than two feet. By following this national standard, our employees can safely build or maintain any power transmission system.

We take electricity for granted, but as humorist James Thurber wrote in 1933: [Mother] came naturally by her confused and groundless fears, for her own mother lived the latter years of her life in the horrible suspicion that electricity was dripping invisibly all over the house.

During the lunch or dinner rush, restaurants have to be able to handle an incredible amount, so you need to be able to count on your power, whether it's for your dishwasher, stoves, or microwaves. Commercial electrical contractors are experienced in setting up the power systems, so everything you need can keep working.

The conductors that you see on power lines are usually made of aluminum due to the fact that aluminum is a good conductor of heat energy. The aluminum may be a composite, plain aluminum or reinforced with steel.

No matter how well wired your building may be, electrical outages can occur. The best way to protect the tenants in your building (both commercial and residential) is to have a backup system installed. A battery- or generator-powered backup system can provide enough electricity, so that everyone can be safely evacuated, or so emergency services can continue.

Before your contractor begins any project involving your commercial electric system, there are several questions he or she will need to ask. These include whether the existing system is in good condition and is it rated for the electrical demand that will be placed on it.

If someone in your household relies on electric medical equipment such as a respirator or battery powered equipment such as a wheelchair, having a standby generator installed ensures you have the power you need to keep critical equipment running during a power outage.

Office buildings have a surprisingly large power requirement. In addition to a hefty HVAC system, there are the power lines for computers, meeting rooms, and servers. Commercial electrical contractors are experienced with office buildings to make sure you have the power you need.

As population and personal energy-consumption grow, the transmission grid must expand to ensure there is enough capacity. That’s where we come in, building and maintaining outstanding systems to avoid overload and the potential decrease in the amount of power.

If your power goes out, first call the electrical company to find out if there is an outage in your area. They should have an idea of what's causing the outage and how long power will be down. If yours is the only house that's without power, there could be a serious power issue, so call us right away.

Commercial electricians can provide the following services: parking lot lighting, fire alarm installation, troubleshooting, upgrades & maintenance, voltage and amperage, recording and analysis, computer wiring systems, energy efficient lighting, emergency and standby power generating systems, and overhead and underground lines (power and communications).

In terms of an electric field (the region surrounding a charged particle or object within which a force is exerted on other objects or charged particles), electricity works similar to gravity. Whereas gravity always attracts, an electric field can either attract or repel.
