Behind every great project is a team putting in the work.

From the ground up, our crews are bringing plans to life. Take a glimpse of our Champions in action, working through the different stages of construction with the skill, teamwork, and attention to detail that go into every successful project.

Just because a panel is nearby doesn't mean it has the power available for new equipment.

At this elementary school, we're installing electrical circuits for a new commercial freezer, including power for the condenser units, lighting, and controls.

But before installation begins, engineers must evaluate the existing panel's electrical load to ensure it can safely support the additional equipment.

Without proper planning, an overloaded panel could lead to tripped breakers, unexpected shutdowns, and disruptions to the school's kitchen operations.

Once the power source is confirmed, our electricians can move forward with the installation and testing.

It's another example of why successful electrical construction starts with proper planning.

Sometimes the biggest challenge is working around what's already there.

On this project, we're bringing power to a new refrigerator in an existing kitchen. While the electrical work may seem straightforward, getting there takes some careful planning.

Above the suspended ceiling, there's a lot to navigate...ductwork, framing, lighting, and existing building systems all competing for space.

Our electricians have to find the right path for the conduit and wiring while working around what's already in place.

It's one of the realities of electrical construction in existing buildings. Every space presents its own challenges, and experience helps us find the right solution.

And this is where 1,000 feet of conduit finally ends up.

After traveling across the warehouse, the 2-inch EMT will make its final bends and feed a new 30 kVA transformer, which will then supply a new panel for the tenant improvement area.

Right now, this side of the building doesn’t have the power needed for the new spaces being added. Once complete, the new electrical infrastructure will support the TI area, including the new men’s and women’s restrooms and everything else being built on this side of the warehouse.

From calculating voltage drop, to installing 1,000 feet of conduit, to transforming and distributing the power where it’s needed, this is how the pieces of an electrical system come together.

When power has a long way to travel, there’s more to consider than just running conduit.

On this project, we’re installing roughly 1,000 feet of 2-inch conduit across the building to carry a feeder that will supply a transformer and panelboard on the other side of the warehouse.

Over a run that long, voltage drop becomes an important consideration. Engineers calculate the expected voltage drop and increase the conductor size as needed to make sure there’s adequate voltage at the end of the run. This helps prevent issues as the power crosses the entire building.

From 480-volt distribution to the everyday outlets powering computers and equipment, there’s a lot of planning and engineering behind getting power where it needs to go.

Critical facilities demand more than electrical expertise—they demand awareness, planning, and responsibility.

Throughout this series, we’ve shared a closer look at what it takes to perform electrical work in environments that can’t simply stop operating.

From understanding existing electrical systems and protecting fire-rated walls to coordinating around emergency response operations, every decision matters.

For our team, the goal is always the same: do quality electrical work while respecting the critical work happening around us.

Proud of our Champions for bringing that level of care to the job.

It may look like a small gap around a conduit, but how it’s sealed matters.

When electrical conduit passes through a fire-rated wall, the pe*******on needs to be properly protected to maintain the wall’s fire rating.

Fire caulk and intumescent putty are designed to help prevent fire from spreading through those openings for a specified period of time. The key is making sure the material being used is appropriate for the specific wall assembly and rating.

It’s another example of how electrical construction goes beyond simply getting power from point A to point B. The details of the installation matter, especially when they’re part of a building’s fire protection system.

Doing the job right means paying attention to more than just your own scope.

When electrical conduit penetrates a fire-rated wall, that pe*******on needs to be properly sealed to help maintain the integrity of the fire barrier.

While working at this critical facility, our team noticed an existing pe*******on that wasn’t properly sealed. Since we’re already working in the area, we’re going to make sure it’s taken care of.

It’s a small detail, but an important one, especially in a facility dedicated to protecting others.

See it. Address it. Leave it better than you found it. That’s the Champion way.

A simple circuit doesn’t mean you skip the homework.

The scope sounds straightforward: install a new 20-amp, 120-volt circuit. But before our electricians tie into an existing panel, there’s some investigation to do.

We need to understand what each panel is currently serving, review the existing loads, and determine the appropriate place to pick up power before moving forward with the installation.

Especially at a critical facility, the work starts with understanding the existing electrical system—not just finding an open breaker.

Investigate. Plan. Then install.

Part 2: On some jobsites, understanding your surroundings is just as important as understanding the electrical system.

At this fire station, something as simple as an open door has a purpose. The truck, equipment, and gear are staged so firefighters can respond as quickly as possible when a call comes in.

For our electricians, that means we can’t treat the space like a typical construction site. Before moving equipment, blocking an area, or changing something that seems to be in our way, we need to communicate with the client and understand how that decision could affect their operations.

Electrical construction at a critical facility requires us to work around the people who still need to do their jobs, without getting in the way of theirs.
