General Commercial Electrical Maintenance & Repair in Madison, WI
Commercial electrical maintenance and repair work is not something you should leave to residential electricians or your in-house maintenance staff. Instead, you should contact commercial electrical contractors who are highly familiar with the applicable national, state, and local electrical codes. These codes are necessarily more stringent than those for residential installations—especially if volatile liquids are nearby.
If these codes are violated, your business can be closed down during your next building inspection, and it can remain closed until the equipment has been properly installed, repaired, or maintained. That can be as costly as it is time-consuming.
Also, many commercial installations use 3-phase wiring, which differs significantly from the 120/240VAC split-phase wiring that residential electricians are accustomed to using. Three-phase wiring allows higher amperage to be delivered more efficiently to your building.
It also allows for different voltages, as your equipment might require:
- 120VAC, 230VAC, 240VAC, 277VAC, and 347VAC in “wye” configurations
- 208VAC, 240VAC, 400VAC, 415VAC, 480VAC, and 600VAC in “delta” configurations
Don’t know the difference between a “wye” and a “delta” configuration? Not sure which one you have or what voltages you need?
