FAQs
What electrical services do you specialize in for industrial facilities in Cowan?
Our team delivers a full suite of industrial electrical services, including power distribution design and installation, motor control and automation, switchboard fabrication, energy-efficient LED and lighting systems, and complete plant wiring. Whether you require a new build, an expansion, or a retrofit, we customise every solution to match your site’s load requirements, production schedule, and future growth plans.
Are your projects compliant with Cowan’s local regulations and national electrical standards?
Absolutely. We work closely with local authorities and adhere to all relevant standards—AS/NZS 3000 (Wiring Rules), AS/NZS 61439 (switchgear & controlgear assemblies), and Work Health and Safety (WHS) regulations. Our electricians are fully licensed, and every installation is inspected, tested, and certified before hand-over to ensure long-term safety and compliance.
How do you minimise downtime during electrical upgrades or maintenance?
We start with a detailed site assessment and develop a staged implementation plan that fits your production schedule. Critical cut-overs are performed after hours or during planned shutdowns, and temporary power solutions are deployed when needed. Our project managers coordinate tightly with your operations team to keep essential equipment online and maintain productivity throughout the upgrade.
What safety measures do you have in place on industrial job sites?
Safety is embedded in our methodology. All personnel undergo site-specific inductions and hold current LVR/CPR and working-at-heights certifications. Job safety analyses (JSAs) and lock-out/tag-out (LOTO) procedures are completed daily. We use calibrated testing instruments, maintain strict housekeeping, and conduct regular toolbox talks to ensure hazards are identified and mitigated in real time.
Can you integrate advanced automation and monitoring systems into existing plants?
Yes. Our engineers design and install PLC, SCADA, and IIoT solutions that can interface with legacy equipment as well as modern smart devices. We provide programming, panel fabrication, network setup, and operator training, enabling you to gain real-time visibility of energy usage, production metrics, and predictive maintenance alerts—all of which improve efficiency and reduce operating costs.
Do you offer ongoing preventive maintenance and 24/7 emergency support?
We provide tailored maintenance programs that include thermal imaging, insulation resistance testing, RCD trip time checks, and switchboard inspections. These services help detect issues before they cause failures. For unplanned outages, our rapid-response team is on call 24/7 across Cowan and the surrounding region, equipped with stocked service vehicles to restore power quickly and safely.
