FAQs
What types of commercial-grade electrical switches do you supply in New Market?
We carry a full portfolio of commercial-grade switches, including standard single-pole and three-way wall switches, heavy-duty toggle and rocker switches, momentary contact (push-button) switches for automation, key-lock safety switches, waterproof/IP-rated switches for outdoor or wash-down areas, and specialty selector and illuminated pilot-light switches used in control panels. All models are rated 20 A or higher, manufactured from industrial thermoplastics or zinc-plated steel, and certified to CSA/UL standards for use throughout New Market and the GTA.
Are your switches compliant with local and national electrical codes?
Yes. Every switch we stock is CSA-certified and UL-listed, meeting the requirements of the Ontario Electrical Safety Code (OESC) as well as the Canadian Electrical Code, Part I. Product data sheets include SCC marks and c-UL-us files for cross-border projects. Our technical staff can provide spec sheets and assist with ESA inspection documentation to ensure your installation in New Market passes first time.
Can your switches handle heavy-duty industrial loads common in commercial facilities?
Absolutely. For motor loads, HVAC compressors, or multi-circuit lighting panels we recommend our heavy-duty series, rated up to 600 V AC and 60 A, with silver-cadmium oxide contacts for superior arc suppression. For even higher currents we stock fusible safety disconnect switches up to 400 A. All units are tested to 50,000 mechanical operations and carry SCCR ratings for use with modern circuit breakers and MCCs.
Do you offer energy-efficient or smart switching solutions for commercial buildings?
Yes. We supply network-ready smart switches that integrate with BACnet, Modbus, or Ethernet/IP building-automation systems. Options include occupancy-sensing wall switches, daylight-harvest dimming switches, and wireless mesh controllers that can reduce lighting energy use by up to 60 %. A proprietary app allows facility managers in New Market to schedule, monitor, and obtain real-time energy data from any web browser or mobile device.
What is the typical lead time and installation process for large orders in New Market?
Standard switches (up to 500 pieces) are stocked locally and can be delivered within 24 hours anywhere in New Market. Custom-engraved or color-matched devices require 5–7 business days. Our licensed electricians can perform site surveys, remove existing devices, install new switches, and provide ESA-compliant panel labeling. A typical 50-switch retrofit in a retail space takes one evening shift with no downtime to daytime operations.
What warranty and after-sales support do you provide?
All commercial switches come with a 2-year replacement warranty covering mechanical failure, discoloration, and contact wear under normal operating conditions. Smart and motor-rated switches include phone and on-site technical support for the first 12 months. We also offer optional maintenance contracts that include annual thermal imaging and torque verification to extend product life and maintain code compliance.
