We specialize in Tenant fit outs, Office rewiring, panel upgrades, and power capacity enhancements designed according to actual load profiles. We provide carefully coordinated conduit routing, marking conventions, and termination practices that enable future expansion. We stage shutdowns, deliver temporary power, and schedule cutovers to preserve uptime.
From emergency egress lighting to selective coordination and arc-fault mitigation, we develop reliable distribution that aligns with equipment requirements and landlord requirements. Low-voltage pathways, metering, and surge protection are planned, documented, and tested, ensuring a maintainable, compliant, and scalable electrical infrastructure.
Safety-Focused Practices and Code Compliance
We deliver strict adherence to the NEC and Seattle Electrical Code, with clear documentation of conductor sizing, grounding, and fault protection. We wear task-appropriate PPE and implement Lockout/Tagout so you get zero-energy verification before any work begins. We obtain the required permits, coordinate inspections, and deliver as-built records to confirm your system passes on the first review.
Seattle Codes & NEC
Even though each project is unique, our work maintains the same core principles: strict adherence to the National Electrical Code (NEC) and the Seattle Electrical Code. You get designs and installations that conform to the latest adopted editions, including Seattle's local amendments. We confirm conductor sizing, overcurrent protection, and fault-current ratings, then document computations for inspection.
You'll observe compliant service entrance arrangements with clear working clearances, labeled disconnects, and proper bonding and grounding. We apply Article 250 procedures, confirm electrode continuity, and test impedance to restrict touch voltage during a ground fault. We also make certain AFCI/GFCI protection where mandated, tamper-resistant devices, and correct box fill and derating. Equipment listings, wiring approaches, and penetrations follow listing instructions and Chapter 3 requirements. Final deliverables include as-builts and inspection-compliant compliance reports.
PPE and Lockout/Tagout
Founded upon compliant design click here and installation, field work adheres to strict PPE and lockout/tagout controls to keep energized hazards at bay. You locate all energy sources, verify absence of voltage, and apply isolation devices with durable tags and locks under a documented procedure. You wear personal protective equipment aligned with incident energy and task: arc-rated clothing, voltage-rated gloves with leather protectors, eye and face shields, EH-rated footwear, and hearing protection. You use insulated tools, barriers, and test instruments validated on a known source before and after testing.
You maintain control of keys, set perimeters, and coordinate shift changes so no equipment is re-energized too early. You confirm again zero energy state before removal of lockout/tagout and PPE, restoring machinery systematically and securely.
Permits Plus Inspections
Before a single conductor gets installed, permits and inspections establish the safety and compliance baseline for the project. You obtain the appropriate permit scope, validate fee schedules, and map permit timelines to your construction sequence to avoid idle crews and rushed work. You consult NEC, WAC, and Seattle DCI requirements, documenting load calculations, conductor sizing, grounding, bonding, AFCI/GFCI locations, and fault-current ratings.
You organize work for every inspection, utilizing a precise inspection checklist: box fill calculations, staple distances, derating factors, conduit support spacing, equipment clearance requirements, service disconnect identification, bonding jumper installation, and arc-fault/GFCI protection validation. You ensure as-builts accurate, remedy red tags immediately, and initiate re-inspections only when corrections are confirmed. Final sign-off corresponds to panel schedules, torque records, and test results.
Straightforward Pricing and Direct Communication
We provide you with an upfront, itemized estimate that lists labor, materials, permits, and inspections per NEC and local code requirements. We outline the complete scope and total cost before work commences, with no hidden charges or surprise add‑ons. Throughout the job, we deliver easy-to-understand updates on progress, safety checks, and any code-driven adjustments.
Upfront, Itemized Estimates
Count on upfront, line-by-line estimates that outline labor, materials, permit fees, and code-driven requirements before any work starts. You obtain a complete breakdown linked to scope, showing fixture counts, conductor types and lengths, device ratings, panel space, GFCI/AFCI requirements, grounding upgrades, and inspection steps. We synchronize each line with NEC and Seattle amendments, so you recognize what's required and why.
We utilize standardized unit costs and site-specific quantities for transparent pricing. When field conditions change—buried junctions, aluminum branch circuits, or load calculation results—we revise the estimate for accuracy and compliance, with your approval first. You'll be informed of timelines, access needs, utility coordination, and shutoff plans. Our documentation clarifies warranty terms, submittals, and disposal methods, providing safe execution and predictable budgeting from start to finish.
Zero Hidden Costs
While scopes evolve during real-world work, our pricing never obscures extras. You obtain upfront billing connected to defined tasks, materials, and code-compliant methods, so there are no surprises when we examine a panel or trace a circuit. We quote a flat rate for each approved scope segment, calculated from labor hours, parts specifications, and required permits. If conditions necessitate a change, we halt, price it, and obtain your authorization.
Our fee system complies with NEC-driven processes and safety best practices. You'll receive transparent costs for service-entrance work, grounding upgrades, AFCIs, or GFCIs. We also offer bundle discounts when you package related services—like panel upgrades with surge protection—decreasing total labor mobilizations. Transparent math, documented assumptions, and guaranteed pricing preserve your timeline, financial plan, and safety.
Simple-Language Updates
Transparent pricing requires equally transparent updates. You'll receive clear communications that convert NEC regulations, load calculations, and permit steps into concrete actions, timelines, and costs. We identify scope changes right away, document their code drivers, and detail safety impacts so you can authorize with certainty.
We schedule milestones, provide written change orders, and timestamp progress photos. You'll see circuit labeling, breaker sizing, GFCI/AFCI positioning, and grounding improvements in simple terms. Should we recommend derating your panel or installing arc-fault protection, we clarify the potential hazard, relevant standard, and pricing before any work starts.
Additionally, you'll receive community updates on outages, inspections, and city initiatives, plus practical energy tips—like LED retrofits, smart controls, and load management—to reduce usage while maintaining compliance and safety.
Project Workflow: From Consultation Through Final Walkthrough
Prior to bringing out any equipment, we begin with a detailed on-site consultation to determine scope, load requirements, code specifications, and safety priorities. We validate service capacity, document circuits, identify grounding/bonding requirements, and record access or shutoff procedures. We'll provide you with a written plan, clear timeline expectations, and a clearly defined proposal with itemized materials and permit requirements.
Following permit approval, we arrange work to limit outages. We perform lockout/tagout procedures, protect finishes, and complete installations according to NEC, local amendments, and manufacturer requirements. We mark panels, torque terminations to required standards, and test GFCI and AFCI devices, fault current, continuity, and polarity. Once energized, we commission systems, show operation, and document warranty details and maintenance tasks.
