Our Expertise in Action
Mechanical Systems
Mechanical System Electrical Experience
From servicing systems to new installations, we provide professional electrical services to mechanical contractors throughout the cities. With 20 years of experience in wiring and maintaining mechanical systems, we understand that commercial electrical maintenance, repairs, and small project updates are essential for long-term system performance.
Pump & Motor Control Expertise
We frequently work with pumps that circulate chilled or hot water through buildings. Many of these pumps are started and stopped by motor starters, which are becoming outdated and inefficient in providing industrial electrical solutions.
Variable Speed Drive (VFD) Upgrades
Many customers are now replacing motor starters with Variable Speed Drives (VFDs). VFDs soft start motors to reduce wear and tear, and they run motors more efficiently at lower amperage. Additionally, VFDs are user-friendly, making tuning and controlling motors simple while enhancing overall system reliability.
Hazardous Locations
Industrial & Commercial Hazardous Environments Considering we specialize in industrial electrical solutions and commercial electrical maintenance, we frequently encounter facilities that contain excessive amounts of dust, flammable gases or vapors, and ignitable fibers/flyings. NEC-Compliant Hazardous Location Wiring These hazardous locations necessitate specific wiring and device installations to comply with the National Electrical Code (NEC). Intermediate & Rigid Metal Conduit Installation Generally, this involves installing thicker gauge metal conduits, such as Intermediate Metal Conduit or Rigid Metal Conduit, which must be threaded and require the use of threaded fittings. BME offers professional electrical services with the expertise to bend and thread rigid pipe and wire your equipment according to NEC standards. Experience in Hazardous Locations There are numerous additional requirements that must be fulfilled when installing wiring in hazardous locations, and we are experienced and qualified to meet those goals.
Bridge Cranes
One of our unique specialties is providing commercial electrical maintenance for overhead bridge cranes and performing electrical maintenance on them. We travel throughout the Midwest to complete these industrial electrical solutions due to the limited number of electricians experienced in crane wiring. We install and wire industrial hoist systems, including jib crane hoists, monorail hoists, and stationary hoists operated by pendant controls.
A typical job consists of:
- Putting up conductor bar along the runway so the bridge and hoist can collect their power.
- Wiring the bridge motors and the hoist itself hanging on the bridge.
- Wiring the pendant/radio to operate the crane.
- Installing wire for anti-collision avoidance, if applicable.
- Setting the upper and lower limits of the hook and any other electrical add-ons the crane may have.
As each crane job may seem similar, they all differ from one another.
Pendant-to-Radio Crane Control Upgrades
A popular update we provide as part of our professional electrical services is converting from pendant style control to radio control, allowing the operator to move freely around the workspace while still operating the crane. If you have an overhead crane or want an overhead crane in your shop, we are the electricians you want to wire it.
Industrial Wiring
Enhancing industrial buildings with additional power is essential for their functionality. This includes implementing new services, transformers, panels, and sub-panels to meet the demands of modern operations. Power for manufacturing and production lines is crucial, as is the support for large equipment and machines, such as CNC machines, die cast machines, injection molding machines, and presses. Additionally, commercial electrical maintenance is vital for wiring mechanical systems, including chillers, boilers, rooftop units, and split systems, ensuring that your facility operates efficiently. Our professional electrical services provide tailored industrial electrical solutions to meet these needs.
Building LED Lighting Upgrades
Parking lot LED upgrades are essential for enhancing visibility and safety while providing long-term energy savings. Upgrading outdated fixtures to energy-efficient LED lighting is part of our professional electrical services. For interior spaces, consider our commercial electrical maintenance options to modernize your office, warehouse, or commercial building with LED lighting. This not only saves money but also improves light quality and extends the lifespan of your fixtures. Additionally, our industrial electrical solutions include exterior building LED lighting upgrades that enhance curb appeal, security, and energy efficiency while reducing maintenance costs. We also offer church lighting, wiring, and other upgrades to provide essential improvements, ensuring that worship spaces, offices, and community areas are well-supported.
