FAQ

Common questions

Why do you need the equipment nameplate information?
The nameplate gives the voltage, phase, current draw and maximum overcurrent protection, which determine wire size and breaker size. Without it, circuits are guesses, and guesses lead to rework.
Who is responsible for the equipment itself?
The manufacturer or installer is responsible for the equipment, its mounting and its mechanical, gas or plumbing connections. We are responsible for the electrical supply and connection.
Does every piece of equipment need a disconnect?
Many do, and the code has specific requirements about location and accessibility for motors and appliances. We determine what applies to your equipment during planning.
Can you reuse an existing circuit for new equipment?
Sometimes, if the existing wire, breaker and voltage match the new equipment's requirements. Often they do not, so we check before reusing anything.
More about equipment connections

An equipment connection is the electrical work that brings power to a piece of fixed equipment: rooftop units, make-up air, compressors, conveyors, machine tools, water heaters, signage, vending, medical or lab equipment. It usually involves a dedicated circuit, correctly sized conductors and overcurrent protection, a means of disconnect, and a final connection to the equipment.

The nameplate on the equipment sets the requirements. Voltage, phase, full-load current and the maximum overcurrent protection all come from the manufacturer, and the installation has to respect them. Mistakes here lead to nuisance trips, damaged equipment or voided manufacturer support.

We handle connections for equipment that tenants, owners, vendors and mechanical or process contractors bring into Twin Cities buildings. Work is coordinated with the installer so the power is ready when the equipment is set, and the equipment can be started up without delays.

When you need it

  • New machinery, HVAC equipment or appliances are being delivered and need power
  • Existing equipment is being relocated within the building
  • A replacement unit has different electrical requirements than the one it replaces
  • Equipment is running on an extension cord or an undersized, shared circuit
  • A rooftop unit, compressor or pump needs a disconnect that is missing or inaccessible
  • You are installing signage, hand dryers, water heaters or other fixed equipment
  • Equipment must be disconnected and reconnected for service, moving or replacement

What’s included, in detail

Nameplate review

We size circuits and protection from the equipment's rated electrical data.

Dedicated circuits

Breaker, wiring and raceway run from the panel to the equipment location.

Disconnects

Fused or non-fused disconnect switches installed where code and good practice require them.

Control wiring

Line-voltage and low-voltage control connections as the equipment requires.

Final hookup

Termination at the equipment, with flexible connections where the unit vibrates or moves.

Disconnect and reconnect

Safe removal and reinstallation of equipment being moved or serviced.

Verification

Voltage, phase rotation and operation checks as required for startup.

Our process

  1. Collect the specs

    We get the equipment data sheet, nameplate details and installer requirements.

  2. Verify the supply

    We confirm the panel has capacity at the right voltage and phase, or plan the changes needed.

  3. Run and install

    Circuit, disconnect and raceway are installed to suit the equipment location.

  4. Connect and verify

    We make the final connection when the equipment is set, check supply and support startup.

More questions

Can you coordinate with the equipment vendor?
Yes. We routinely work with vendors and installers on rough-in timing, locations and startup so the electrical is not the thing holding up the equipment.
