Three-Phase Power Services

Bringing three-phase into a building, or expanding what's already there, starts with the service entrance and the utility coordination behind it. We design and install new three-phase services, upgrade existing single-phase services to three-phase where the utility can provide it, and increase capacity on existing three-phase services to support new equipment loads. We run the load calc, coordinate the meter and service with SCE, install the service equipment, switchgear and metering, and pull the permit through the local jurisdiction. Where a building already has three-phase but not enough of it, we add panelboards, distribution and feeders sized with headroom so the next piece of equipment doesn't max you out.

Many rural and older Antelope Valley sites only have single-phase utility service, and bringing in utility three-phase can be cost-prohibitive or simply unavailable. When that's the case, we engineer phase-conversion solutions: rotary phase converters and VFDs that generate three-phase power on-site from a single-phase supply to run specific equipment. We size the converter or drive to the equipment's actual starting and running load, wire it correctly with the right protection, and verify the equipment runs properly under load. We'll give you the honest comparison, utility three-phase service versus on-site conversion, so you spend on the option that actually fits your equipment and budget.
