Switchgear.
Upgraded.
Service entrance upgrades to 4000A, switchgear maintenance, breaker replacement, and arc-flash labeling. Coordinated outages with JEA, FPL, and Clay Electric.
Gear warns you
before it fails.
Switchgear rarely goes quietly. It warns in heat, in noise, and in trips nobody can explain. Any one of these is worth a call before an outage picks the date for you.
The main trips and nobody can say why
A main or feeder breaker that opens with no obvious fault downstream is either a coordination problem or a breaker at the end of its working life. Both are answered by testing, not by resetting it again.
An IR scan came back with a hot spot
A thermal delta at a lug or a stab is a loose or degraded connection heating under load. Left alone it follows its own schedule, and that schedule is rarely convenient.
Parts for your gear stopped being made
Distribution sections from the seventies and eighties still run buildings all over Jacksonville. When the breaker is no longer manufactured, retrofit kits and interior replacements buy years without a full change-out.
The utility says the service can't carry the new load
A new tenant, a chiller, or a bank of chargers pushes past the service rating. That becomes a service-entrance project with JEA or FPL, and the lead time is measured in months, not weeks.
The arc-flash study is more than five years old
NFPA 70E asks for a review at least every five years, or sooner if a change to the system alters incident energy. A label that no longer matches the gear is worse than no label at all.
Water, salt air, or storm damage in the gear
A flooded electrical room and twenty years of coastal air end in the same place. Anything that got wet gets inspected and tested before it gets re-energized.

Service Entrance Upgrades
200A through 4000A service entrance upgrades. We handle the utility coordination with JEA, FPL, and Clay Electric — including the outage window request and re-energization sequencing.
Switchgear Maintenance
Cleaning, lubrication, torque audit, insulation-resistance testing, and functional testing on low- and medium-voltage switchgear. NETA MTS-aligned procedures.
Breaker Replacement
Molded-case circuit breakers, insulated-case breakers, and power circuit breakers. We source direct from the manufacturer — no aftermarket parts on critical equipment.
Arc-Flash Labeling
IEEE 1584 arc-flash hazard analysis and NFPA 70E labeling on all switchgear and distribution equipment. We deliver the study and hang the labels.
Urgent Switchgear Repair
Failed breakers, damaged buses, blown insulators — we dispatch the same day for contract accounts. Equipment sourced from our stocking distributor network.
Panelboard Replacement
Full panelboard replacement — main lug and main breaker equipment, branch circuit reconfiguration, and new directory labeling. Inspected and closed before we leave.
JEA, FPL, and Clay Electric.
We know the process.
Utility-coordinated outages take 6–10 weeks to schedule. We submit the applications, follow up on the window, and sequence the temp-service, transition, and re-energization so your tenants see one overnight outage.
- 01Outage application
We submit to JEA or FPL 6–10 weeks out and follow up on the window. You stay on schedule.
- 02Temp service (if required)
For occupied buildings, we coordinate temp service before the main outage so tenants aren't down during the sequencing window.
- 03Overnight switchover
New gear landed and tested. Re-energization happens overnight — we're out before the building opens.
- 04Commissioning and re-energization
Circuit-by-circuit load transfer, voltage and phase-rotation verification, and arc-flash labeling before the final inspection.
Full scope.
No surprises.
- Utility outage application and coordination
- Temp-service design and install (if required)
- New switchgear procurement and delivery
- Demo of existing gear, bus, and conductors
- New service entrance conductors and terminations
- Ground electrode system and bonding
- Arc-flash hazard analysis and labeling
- Final inspection and CO paperwork
- As-built drawings and commissioning report
