Industrial electrician in Metro Detroit

Handmade Electric does industrial electrical work across Metro Detroit for manufacturing plants, warehouses, and industrial facilities. Industrial environments run higher voltages and less forgiving equipment than a house or a storefront, and the work is approached that way.

Scope

What we do in industrial facilities

  • Machinery hookups and disconnects
  • Panel and distribution work
  • Panel inspections
  • Power distribution for equipment moves and line changes
  • Troubleshooting faults on production equipment
  • Lighting for plant and warehouse space
Symptoms

When a facility calls us

  • A new machine is arriving and needs power run and connected
  • Equipment is being moved and the distribution has to move with it
  • A fault is taking down a line and nobody has found it
  • Panels have not been inspected in years
  • Plant or warehouse lighting is failing or is inadequate for the work
  • Documentation no longer matches what is actually installed
Process

How the work goes

  1. Step 01

    Walk the facility

    We look at the equipment, the existing distribution, and the access and safety constraints the work has to happen inside of.

  2. Step 02

    Scope and quote

    You get the scope and the cost up front, including any capacity limits in the existing system that the new work would expose.

  3. Step 03

    Schedule around production

    Work that requires equipment down gets planned with you rather than sprung on you.

  4. Step 04

    Execute, test, and document

    The work is tested before it is handed back, so equipment is not started up on an assumption.

Questions

Common questions

Can you connect new machinery?
Yes. Machinery hookups cover running the feed, the disconnect, and the connection to the equipment, sized to what the machine actually draws rather than to what is convenient to run. Part of that job is confirming the existing distribution can carry the new load before the machine shows up.
What is a panel inspection and why does it matter?
It is a look at the condition of the distribution equipment: connections, signs of heat, corrosion, loading, and whether what is installed still matches what the panel says is installed. In an industrial facility a failing connection inside a panel is both a fire risk and an unplanned line-down event, and both are cheaper to find on purpose.
Can you work around our production schedule?
Where the job allows it, yes. Some work requires equipment to be down, and in that case the outage gets planned with you in advance so the shutdown lands where it costs the least.
What does industrial electrical work cost?
It depends on the equipment involved, the condition and capacity of the existing distribution, access, and whether the work can be done live or requires a shutdown. Industrial jobs vary too widely for a number to be meaningful before the facility has been walked.
