FAQs
What types of electrical infrastructure services do you provide in Georgetown?
We design, install, upgrade, and maintain all core elements of commercial and industrial electrical infrastructure, including switchgear, transformers, distribution panels, backup generators, uninterruptible-power-supply (UPS) systems, power factor correction, and sitewide grounding/bonding networks. We also deliver turnkey solutions for new construction, facility expansions, and grid-tie projects with utility coordination.
How can I tell when my building needs an electrical infrastructure upgrade?
Common warning signs include frequent breaker trips, unexplained equipment shutdowns, voltage fluctuations, outdated fuse panels, noticeable heat around electrical enclosures, or an expansion that will add significant electrical load. A professional load study and infrared thermographic inspection can confirm capacity issues and pinpoint hotspots that threaten safety and uptime.
Do I need a permit for electrical infrastructure work, and will you obtain it?
Yes. Georgetown and Williamson County require permits and inspections for most service upgrades, transformer replacements, and new panel installations. Our team manages the entire permitting process—submitting drawings, coordinating with the city inspector, and ensuring the project meets NEC, IEEE, and local code requirements—so you stay compliant without extra paperwork.
Can you integrate renewable energy sources or EV charging into our existing infrastructure?
Absolutely. We evaluate your current distribution system, calculate additional load, and engineer tie-ins for solar arrays, battery storage, or Level-2/Level-3 EV chargers. Upgrades may include dedicated breakers, smart metering, and reverse-power-flow protections that allow you to leverage renewable generation while maintaining grid reliability.
What safety and quality standards do you follow on Georgetown projects?
All work complies with the latest National Electrical Code (NEC), NFPA 70E arc-flash requirements, IEEE standards, and OSHA safety regulations. Our electricians hold Texas state licenses, are NFPA-70E certified, and follow rigorous lockout/tagout and personal protective equipment (PPE) protocols. We provide detailed as-built documentation and one-year workmanship warranties.
How quickly can you respond to electrical infrastructure emergencies?
We offer 24/7 emergency dispatch in Georgetown with a typical on-site response time of 90 minutes or less. Our service trucks carry critical spare parts, temporary generators, and diagnostic equipment to restore power rapidly. For clients who require guaranteed response, we offer tiered maintenance agreements with prioritized service and remote monitoring options.
