Electrical and Instrumentation
Our Electrical and Instrumentation Department listen to our Clients needs and concerns to develop an engineering solution for the most efficient and cost effective product for our clients to operate. From electrical power-based projects such as transmission lines, distribution lines, substations and power plants, to support for process-centric projects, our team can design and deliver the drawings and documentation necessary to provide a fully comprehensive electrical package. Our highly qualified engineers and designers can also specify the proper instrumentation for today’s computer-controlled complex processes.
