If breakers trip under normal load, you are adding equipment that your current service cannot handle, or you are planning a tenant buildout that requires more capacity, those are all signs. A load calculation tells you exactly where you stand. We do these before recommending any panel work.
A load calculation adds up the electrical demand of everything running in your building and compares it against your service capacity. It tells you whether your current panel can handle what you are asking of it, and it is what we use to size any upgrade correctly. Skipping a load calculation is how you end up with a panel that is too small six months after the upgrade.
If you run large motors, industrial HVAC, manufacturing equipment, commercial refrigeration, or high-capacity machinery, three-phase power is almost certainly the more efficient and cost-effective option. For a standard office or retail space, single-phase is usually sufficient. We look at your equipment list and tell you what makes sense.
Most commercial panel upgrades are completed in one to two days, depending on the size of the service and the condition of the existing installation. We coordinate the utility disconnect in advance and schedule the inspection so there are no unnecessary gaps between the work and the sign-off.
Yes. A properly installed generator connection requires a transfer switch that prevents backfeed onto the utility grid, which is both a safety requirement and a code requirement. We install manual and automatic transfer switches for commercial properties and size the connection to the loads you need the generator to cover.

READ MOREStep into an older home in Stillwater, Baldwin, or Marine on St. Croix, and you can feel the history the moment you walk through the door. The original hardwood floors creak in familiar places, the trim work has character you just can’t find in new construction, and the wide front porch invites you to sit and watch the neighborhood go by. These homes carry stories — families raised, holidays celebrated, and generations of life lived within their walls.
READ MOREMost homeowners never think about their electrical panel until something goes wrong. But the truth is, millions of panels in homes across Minnesota and the U.S. are recalled, obsolete, or flat-out unsafe — and many have been linked to electrical fires or insurance claim denials.
