Electrical Maintenance Is Critical

With downtime costing industries an estimated $852 million per week or higher, reliable power is nonnegotiable. An electrical maintenance program helps you:

• Improve power system reliability: When you smell smoke or see sparks, it may be too late to avoid downtime. Catching problems early helps your equipment perform as expected.

• Protect your electrical equipment: Preventive services assess equipment condition and help you address loose connections and other issues before they cause damage. You can extend the life of your equipment by preventing premature wear.

• Improve conditions for your staff and contractors: Proper, timely maintenance keeps everyone on your team safer and supports your staff in their work.

• Ensure compliance: In Canada, provincial regulations and safety requirements emphasize proper electrical system maintenance to support safe operation. In the U.S., standards such as the National Fire Protection Association's NFPA 70B and other regulations require annual maintenance of most commercial and industrial electrical systems.

• Save money: Preventive services help you avoid the costs of a sudden equipment breakdown, emergency calls and lost productivity. You can schedule maintenance during slower times or take advantage of Magna IV Engineering's no-downtime diagnostics. You can then schedule replacement or repair of your equipment when it makes sense.
