Overview

Downtime is expensive. Good electrical work prevents it.

Businesses and facilities need power that's safe, compliant and dependable. We design, install and maintain electrical systems that keep production lines, cold rooms, kitchens and offices running.

Our team handles new installations, expansions and retrofits, as well as rapid-response repairs when something fails. We work around your operating hours to minimise disruption, including nights and weekends.

  • Three-phase supply, balancing and power distribution
  • Motor circuits, starters, VFDs and control panels
  • Preventive maintenance and thermal inspections
  • After-hours and emergency call-outs

Capabilities

What we install & repair

Distribution boards

Main and sub-distribution boards, busbars, MCCBs, metering and panel replacements.

Three-phase power

New three-phase supplies, phase balancing, power-factor considerations and load planning.

Motors & controls

Pumps, compressors, conveyors and fans: starters, contactors, overloads and variable-frequency drives.

Commercial fit-outs

Shops, offices, restaurants and hotels: power, data containment, lighting and emergency lighting.

Industrial lighting

High-bay LED, yard and floodlighting, photocell and timer control. Brighter sites, lower bills.

Maintenance contracts

Scheduled inspections, tightening, thermal checks and testing to catch failures before they happen.

Interactive tool

Load & current estimator

Estimate the current your equipment will draw. It's useful when planning a new machine, a sub-board or a generator.

Supply type
Most Jamaican homes use 110/220V split-phase; commercial sites often have 3Ø supplies.
Motors typically 0.8–0.9; resistive heaters ≈ 1.0

Single-phase vs three-phase

Which supply does your facility need? Here's a practical comparison.

Preventive maintenance

What a maintenance visit covers

  • Visual inspection of boards, cables and enclosures
  • Test emergency lighting and exit signs
  • Check indicator lamps, meters and alarms
  • Generator run test (if installed)

Hurricane season prepBefore June, have outdoor panels sealed, surge protection checked and generator changeover tested. After a storm, never re-energise flooded equipment until it's been inspected.

Our process

Commercial project workflow

1

Survey

Site survey, load assessment and review of drawings or existing single-line diagrams.

2

Proposal

Scope, materials schedule, programme and price, aligned with your operating hours.

3

Execution

Safe isolation, lock-out/tag-out, staged installation to keep you running.

4

Commission

Testing, labelling, as-built notes and handover to your facility team.

FAQ

Commercial & industrial questions

Can you work outside business hours?

Yes. Night and weekend work is common for shutdowns, tie-ins and panel replacements so your operations aren't interrupted.

Do you offer maintenance contracts?

We offer scheduled maintenance plans tailored to your facility: monthly, quarterly or annual visits with written reports.

Our breakers trip when a big motor starts. Can you help?

Motor inrush current can be 6–8× running current. Soft starters or VFDs, correct breaker curves and cable sizing usually solve this. We'll measure and recommend.

Can you upgrade us from single-phase to three-phase?

We can assess your load, prepare the installation and guide you through the JPS supply upgrade process.
