Industrial Electrical

Plant power, distribution and shutdown work

Water towers, water and wastewater treatment plants, medium-voltage distribution, motor control and process power for utilities, manufacturers and heavy industry where downtime is measured in dollars per minute.

Crews that speak plant language

We plan industrial work around production, not the other way around. Outage windows are scoped hour by hour, materials are prefabricated off-site, and crews mobilize ready and prepared to do the job.

Municipal water is a core specialty. We wire water towers, booster and lift stations, water treatment plants and wastewater treatment facilities — pump power, VFDs, SCADA and instrumentation — for cities across the Kansas City metro area.

From 15kV switchgear and unit substations to VFD replacements and conveyor power, our electricians and instrumentation techs work as one crew so systems come back online tested and documented.

Capabilities

What this scope covers

Water & wastewater

Water towers, water treatment plants, wastewater treatment facilities, lift and booster stations — pump power, controls and telemetry.

MV distribution

Feeder installation, terminations, switchgear setting, testing and utility coordination up to 35kV.

Motor control

MCC installation and retrofit, VFD sizing and startup, soft starts, and motor circuit protection.

Turnarounds

Hour-by-hour outage planning, prefabricated assemblies and multi-shift crews to compress downtime.

Power studies

Short-circuit, coordination and arc-flash analysis with labeling and NFPA 70E documentation.

Process instrumentation

Transmitter, flow, level and temperature device installation with calibration and loop verification.

Heat trace systems

Self-regulating and constant-wattage heat trace for freeze protection and process temperature maintenance — cable, controls, insulation coordination and commissioning.

Reliability services

Infrared scanning, breaker and relay testing, grounding audits and spare-parts management.

Municipal water

Water towers, treatment plants and pump stations

Interior tower lighting and conduit, pump power and VFD lineups, instrumentation and SCADA tie-ins — installed to keep water moving and stay serviceable for decades.

Heat trace

Freeze protection and process temperature maintenance

We install and service heat trace systems on process piping, fire mains, roof and gutter systems, tanks and instrument lines — self-regulating or constant-wattage cable with the controls, sensors and insulation coordination to match.
