Comprehensive Electrical Solutions for Industrial Facilities

Ampco Electric provides a complete range of electrical services to meet the diverse needs of industrial facilities of any size and scope.

Power Distribution Systems

We handle all aspects of power distribution system design, installation, and maintenance:

Main service equipment

We install any size service from 600A to 15kV to reliably meet your facility’s demand. This includes switchboards, switchgear, and motor control centers.

Transformers

We size, select, and install dry-type or liquid-filled transformers to step voltage up or down as required. This includes buck-boost transformers.

Panelboards

We install panelboards and disconnect switches to distribute power through branch circuits to equipment, lighting, and receptacles throughout your facility.

Busways

For flexibility we use busway plug-in raceway for distributing large blocks of power to multiple loads down the line.

Harmonic mitigation

Using active or passive harmonic filters, we eliminate harmonics that can cause overheating and interfere with equipment.

Power monitoring

We install power monitoring systems to give you data about system health, power quality, and pinpoint issues.

Emergency backup generators

We handle generator and ATS installations for standby or peak shaving applications to ensure uptime.

Surge protective devices

Our SPDs safeguard your system from damaging transient voltage surges that occur regularly.

By optimizing your power distribution system, we ensure reliable delivery of clean, uninterrupted electricity throughout your facility.

Industrial Lighting Design and Installation

Proper lighting is essential for safe and efficient industrial facilities. Our lighting services include

LED lighting

We convert outdated HID and fluorescent systems to energy efficient, long-lasting LEDs. This reduces energy costs by 50-70% while enhancing visibility and safety.

Occupancy/Daylight sensors

Our lighting controls reduce energy waste by dimming or turning off lights when not in use. This generates additional cost savings beyond LED efficiency.

High bay lighting

We install LED high bays ideal for warehouses up to 40 feet high. Features include motion sensors, daylight harvesting and programmable dimming controls.

Hazardous location lighting

We safely install lighting systems certified for hazardous areas including paint booths, chemical/oil storage, battery rooms and petrochemical facilities per NEC guidelines.

Exterior lighting

We design LED exterior lighting to enhance security, safety, create a professional appearance, and comply with local regulations for your facility grounds.

Emergency and exit lighting

We maintain proper egress lighting and backups so personnel can safely exit in a power outage. Exit signs are illuminated 24/7.

With optimized lighting, your facility will have enhanced visibility, lower costs, and a safer environment.
