We understand that no one loves to recreate their hard work when a power surge knocks out power to their computer. While the occasional power outage is usual during a storm, we should be able to help you deal with the more frequent surges.
The path of electricity is not dedicated. Instead, power flows through the grid, following the path - through the power lines we make available - of least resistance. This is how power can stay on in an area even if a nearby power line or substation fails or is taken out of service. We can be your conduit.
If you live in a home with an older electrical system, you may find that you can’t do simple things like running the coffeemaker and toaster at the same time. When you’re ready to reclaim control of your appliances, we’re always happy to help you revamp your home’s electrical system.
The electrical demand, called load, is simply transferred to other lines in the area, assuming that they have sufficient capacity. Like traffic, power simply travels around trouble spots by using other routes. Our engineers create systems that help keep power flowing efficiently to you and your customers, the end user.
Did you know that, for many years, commercial electrical generators were only found on buildings that served a critical purpose, such as hospitals and fire stations? However, these days there has been a large increase in the number of buildings that have generators.
If you find yourself changing fuses often or resetting circuit breakers regularly, it is probably time to call an electrician. A licensed electrician can diagnose any issues with the wiring in your home and recommend proper repair.
What does lux mean? In lighting, the term is used to describe the total level of illumination or light intensity produced by a combination of the natural and electrical light sources found in a defined space.
Commercial electricians work from blueprints provided by the general contractor. Whether designing the system or working from blueprints, the electrician installs the conduits and runs the electrical wiring. These wires are usually terminated at switches, circuit breaker panels and relays.
Once substations step down the voltage from large lines and transfer to smaller lines, the power can then be taken off by an EMC or industrial customer. It can also continue to lines of 115-kV, 69-kV or 46-kV.
While wiring may seem simple, it’s actually part of a vast interdependent network. Typically, the repair will involve other circuits and systems you hadn’t even considered, which is why using a professional electrician is usually your best bet.
An important component of proper power line construction is the foundation of the tower structure. This formation can be stabilized considerably by the use of anchors, guy wires, and braces.
Electrical work requires a special skill set and the knowledge of the local safety codes that are applicable to your project. You can find out that information yourself, which may take years, or you can hire the professionals for a lot less.
