Services
Electrical Design and Installation
Our certified electricians deliver comprehensive electrical design and installation services for commercial and industrial clients. With expertise spanning power generation, water treatment, and manufacturing sectors, we handle projects from small-scale lighting to large industrial plants. Our ISO 9001-certified processes ensure compliance with the latest safety standards while maintaining project timelines and budgets.
ATEX / COMPEX
Specialist installation services for potentially explosive environments, adhering to ATEX 201-34 EU directives and COMPEX certification standards. Our engineers implement safe electrical systems in zones with flammable gases or dust, following EN 60079-14 and EN 60079-17 regulations. This critical work requires NICEIC-approved contractors with specialist training.
Thermal Imaging and Testing
Non-intrusive thermal imaging inspections identify potential electrical faults before failure occurs. By detecting overheating components during operation, we help prevent costly breakdowns and safety risks. This minimally disruptive testing requires machinery to remain operational during inspections, reducing downtime for our clients.
Planned Maintenance
Customised maintenance programmes prevent electrical system failures through regular inspections and servicing. We assess equipment usage patterns to create tailored schedules, maintaining full service records throughout the equipment lifecycle. This proactive approach minimises production disruptions while extending asset longevity across industrial environments.
Car Charging Solutions
Government-certified OLEZ installers providing EV charging solutions for commercial and residential properties. We install single-phase AC units and industrial 3-phase AC/DC fast chargers, ensuring proper earthing with MATT-E O-PEN devices. As Rolec preferred installers, we deliver future-proof charging infrastructure compliant with current regulations.
