❝Punctual, Professional, & Experts!❞
★★★★★ - "I cannot begin to express my appreciation for this group of electricians! They are punctual, professional and most of all experts at their craft. I have used them twice. And they are now my personal go-to guys with anything electrical. Oh and don’t let me leave out just how reasonable they are. I have a lot of bad contractors. So believe me when I say that Joe and his crew are the best. Thank u guys so much!"

Breaker and Panel Failure Analysis
Commercial electrical distribution systems operate under heavy and often continuous loads. When breakers or panels fail, the impact can disrupt entire operations.
Our commercial breaker and panel investigations include:
-
Evaluation of overload conditions and improper circuit distribution
-
Inspection for overheating, arcing, and termination failures
-
Analysis of short-circuit and fault events
-
Assessment of code compliance and installation quality
-
Review of the coordination between upstream and downstream protective devices
We identify whether failures stem from excessive demand, improper design, deferred maintenance, or component defects, providing clear documentation for facility managers and insurers.
Equipment Damage Investigations
Commercial and industrial facilities rely on mission-critical equipment, including HVAC systems, manufacturing machinery, refrigeration systems, data infrastructure, and specialty equipment. When electrical events cause damage, determining the origin is essential.
Our equipment damage investigations focus on:
-
Tracing fault paths and identifying points of origin
-
Evaluating surge, transient, or voltage irregularity involvement
-
Inspecting grounding and bonding systems
-
Determining whether damage resulted from an internal malfunction or an external electrical disturbance
Engleton Electric Co, LLC delivers detailed findings to support operational decisions, insurance reviews, and risk management planning.
Load Imbalance Diagnostics
Load imbalance is a common issue in commercial buildings, especially after renovations, tenant improvements, or system expansions. Over time, uneven phase loading can lead to overheating, nuisance tripping, and premature equipment failure.
Our diagnostics include:
-
Phase load measurements and distribution analysis
-
Neutral current assessment
-
Transformer and feeder evaluation
-
Identification of improper circuit additions or panel modifications
By isolating imbalance conditions, we help businesses reduce stress on their electrical infrastructure and improve long-term reliability.
Power Quality Evaluations and Documentation
Power quality issues such as voltage sags, harmonics, and transient disturbances can disrupt sensitive commercial equipment and digital systems. These issues often go undetected without proper testing.
Engleton Electric Co, LLC provides:
-
On-site power quality monitoring and measurement
-
Analysis of voltage irregularities and harmonic distortion
-
Review of service equipment, grounding, and distribution integrity
-
Comprehensive written reports with photo documentation
Each investigation concludes with detailed documentation that clearly outlines observed conditions, diagnostic findings, and root cause conclusions. Our reports are structured for clarity and can support internal decision-making, insurance claims, or corrective action planning.
