What Sanitary Electrical Means in Practice
Sanitary installations
On a food floor, the electrical system is part of the sanitation story. A junction box that pools water, a cable run that can't be cleaned under, or a corroding fitting above a line is a harbourage point and an audit finding, not just a maintenance problem.
What a sanitary installation includes:
Washdown-rated wiring methods: sealed conduit systems, stainless or non-metallic boxes, liquid-tight fittings
NEMA 4X devices and enclosures in wet zones, stepping up to IP69K where high-pressure hot washdown hits directly
Hygienic routing: standoffs and self-draining surfaces, so wash water sheds instead of pooling
Stainless washdown motors and sealed connections on process and conveyor equipment
Layouts that keep panels and disconnects out of spray zones where possible, sealed where not
Our crews follow your GMPs and food safety procedures on the floor, and Charged Electric carries ISNetworld prequalification for plants that require verified contractors.
Sanitary by Design, Not Retrofit
Charged Electric handles food and beverage electrical for processing plants across Southwestern Ontario, from a single washdown zone to full line installations.
Food & beverage electrical
- NSF/3-A Design Principles
- Hygienic design applied to electrical: self-draining surfaces, minimal horizontal ledges, and materials that stand up to your cleaning chemistry.
- Installed in Your Windows
- Rough-in and tie-ins planned into sanitation windows, off-shifts and shutdowns, so installation never costs you a production day.
- GMP-Trained, ISNetworld Prequalified
- Crews follow your GMPs and food safety procedures on the floor, with ISNetworld prequalification for plants that require contractor verification.
- Licensed, Insured, ESA Inspected
- ECRA/ESA licensed 7011473 and fully insured. Every installation done to code, with ESA notifications and inspections handled.
Stainless Washdown Motors, Supplied and Swapped
Washdown motors
Motors take more washdown abuse than any other electrical asset in the plant. A standard motor in a spray zone fails early and fails messy; a washdown-duty motor with sealed connections runs for years in the same spot.
What we handle on the motor side:
Stainless washdown-duty motor supply and replacement on conveyors, pumps and mixers
Liquid-tight, sealed connections built to survive daily washdown and cleaning chemicals
VFDs mounted out of spray zones, with washdown-rated operators at the equipment
Planned swaps inside sanitation windows, or 24/7 response when a line is down
Motor circuits tested and documented after every replacement
If the same motor keeps failing, the fix is usually the spec, not the brand. Request a quote and we'll get back to you within one business day.

They installed a whole home generator for us. Top notch job! Everything went tickity boo. A lot of work involved but the trades were all very professional and explained the job to us as we went along. Other contractors wouldn’t even return our calls. Highly recommend! Local too!

I had them come help me with issues when I had my Lyric Thermostat. On time (early), pet friendly (did not mind my hyper chocolate lab) and price range very reasonable. I would highly recommend Charged Electric in the future.
