Electrical Engineering

Power, lighting and life-safety systems you can count on.

Since 2003 we've engineered electrical systems for hospitals, schools, correctional facilities, retail centers and offices — from service upgrades in buildings that can't shut down to emergency power for the spaces that can't go dark.

What we design

Electrical engineering from service entrance to the last fixture.

New buildings, additions, renovations and system replacements, coordinated with the mechanical design so loads, space and schedules line up.

Power distribution & service upgrades

Utility services, switchboards, panels and feeders sized to the real connected load, including replacements in buildings that have to stay open.

Emergency & standby power

Generators, transfer switches and emergency distribution for hospitals, senior living and other buildings where power can't go out.

Lighting design & controls

Interior, exterior and site lighting modeled in AGI32 for the right light levels, with controls that meet energy code.

Fire alarm & life safety

Fire alarm, emergency lighting and life-safety systems, from single-building replacements to statewide system studies.

Telecommunications

Structured cabling, telephone and data systems designed by a Registered Communications Distribution Designer (RCDD).

Security & access control

Electronic security, access control and technology upgrades for schools, courthouses and correctional facilities.

Critical & life-safety power

For buildings where the lights can't go out.

Hospitals, surgery centers, senior living and correctional facilities need emergency power, fire alarm and life-safety systems that work the first time, every time — often installed while the building stays in use. We plan the phasing and shutdowns as carefully as the systems themselves.
