Commercial Electrical Inspection
Maintaining and regularly inspecting commercial electrical systems is essential to continued plant operations. Some older commercial facilities may have electrical systems, wiring and equipment that are non-compliant with the current Canadian electrical code. Other facilities may have overheating motors close to failure or ground that has been compromised. Performing a regular electrical safety inspection ensures that your people and facility are safe.
An excellent electrical inspection is a serious matter because the experts must check the facility in its entirety to ensure code compliance. Some of the many checks that we perform include the following:
- Arc Flash Protection – Check for arc flash protection.
- Back-Up Generators – Ensure proper operation.
- Bonding & Grounding – Verify grounding and bonding is code compliant.
- Junction Boxes – Verify junction boxes, splices, etc.
- Code Compliant – Verify compliance with the Canadian electrical code (CEC).
- Egress – Check the entrance and egress for safety.
- Emergency Plans – Electrical emergency plans are required.
- Energy Management Systems – Energy management systems reduce lost energy from motors, pumps, HVAC, etc., with optimal scheduling and efficient motors.
- Ergonomics – Verifies a safe and comfortable working environment.
- Explosive and Hazardous Material Areas – Prevention of explosions, fires, and chemical gas.
- Fire and Alarm Systems – Essential to commercial safety.
- Lighting – Verifies adequate illumination.
- Lightening Protection – Important!
- Maintenance Contracts – Preventive and predictive maintenance programs, frequent inspections, and audits.
- Panel Identification – All panels must be completely labeled.
- Panels and Wiring – Check all electrical panels and wiring.
- Raceways – Verify raceways and cables are secured.
- Splices and Terminations – Verify proper splices and terminations.
