Services
Electrical Design
Our in-house engineering team creates custom electrical systems for industrial and commercial facilities. We handle full design-build projects from concept through installation, ensuring compliance with NFPA 70e and Title 24 standards. Our designs optimize energy efficiency while maintaining safety and reliability for operations of all sizes.
PLC Programming
Access Industrial Automation provides specialized PLC programming for manufacturing processes. We work with Allen-Bradley, Siemens, and Omron systems to create control solutions that improve productivity and reduce downtime. Our UL508a certified panels support seamless integration with existing infrastructure for food processing and agricultural clients.
Arc Flash Studies
We conduct comprehensive arc flash risk assessments to protect personnel and equipment. Our studies include data collection, one-line diagrams, and coordination analysis to determine incident energy levels. We provide proper equipment labeling and PPE recommendations while following OSHA and NFPA 70E guidelines for electrical safety compliance.
Infrared Thermography
Using Fluke infrared cameras, we perform thermal imaging of energized electrical equipment to detect potential failures. This non-invasive testing identifies loose connections and overloaded circuits before they cause outages. We schedule scans during off-production hours to minimize disruption while maintaining system reliability and safety.
Lighting Retrofits
Our lighting design team creates energy-efficient solutions for commercial spaces including warehouses, medical facilities, and retail locations. We ensure Title 24 compliance while managing utility rebate programs to offset project costs. Services include interior lighting, parking lot illumination, and advanced control systems for optimal energy savings.
