Industrial Service Upgrades, Transformers & Substations
When the plant outgrows its power, we add capacity: 600V service upgrades, transformer replacements and substation work, coordinated with the utility and scheduled around production. Serving industrial facilities across Southwestern Ontario.
Capacity Planning Before Copper
Industrial service upgrades
Every new line, compressor and charger draws from the same service. When capacity runs out, so do your options. We start with a load study, so the upgrade you buy matches the plant you're planning, not just the one you have.
What the work covers:
Load studies and capacity reviews before any equipment is ordered
600V service and distribution upgrades: switchgear, splitters, feeders and panels
Dry-type transformer supply, installation and replacement
Unit substation and switchgear work, inspected and documented
Utility coordination handled end to end, from application to reconnection
Long-lead equipment is the schedule risk on these projects. We scope early, order early and plan the outage last.
More Power Without More Downtime
Charged Electric handles industrial service upgrades, transformer replacements and substation work for plants across Southwestern Ontario, with utility coordination included.
Transformers & subs
- Load Studies First
- Measured demand, not guesswork, decides the service size. You buy the capacity the plan actually needs.
- 600V Distribution Experience
- Switchgear, transformers, splitters and feeders at industrial scale, installed, inspected and documented.
- Outages Measured in Hours
- Cutovers planned into weekends and shutdowns, with every step sequenced before the power goes off.
- Licensed, Insured, ESA Inspected
- ECRA/ESA licensed 7011473 and fully insured. ESA notifications, inspections and utility paperwork handled for you.
Signs the Service Is Running Out
When to upgrade
Plants rarely outgrow their electrical service overnight. The signs stack up first.
What to watch for:
Nuisance trips on main breakers when large equipment starts
Transformers running hot or humming louder than they used to
Distribution panels full, with no spare capacity for the next machine
Lights and drives sagging when compressors or welders kick in
Expansion on the horizon: new lines, electric process heat or fleet charging
A load study turns those symptoms into a number and a plan. Request a quote and we'll respond 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.
